Metal Energy Hub – The platform for metal-based energy storage systems
The Metal Energy Hub project landscape forms the basis for a new generation of metal-based energy storage systems. Each project addresses a specific component of the value chain – from thermodynamic modeling and experimental validation to implementation on an industrial scale. The focus is always on robust systems with transformation potential: retrofitting existing infrastructure, long-term storage of renewable energies, and technology-neutral sector coupling.
The modular structure enables both scientific depth and technological scalability – embedded in European funding structures and supported by strong partnerships with industry and politics.
The following overview presents the five central projects: Clean Circles, A-STEAM, CORAL, Metal Energy Hub, and MEIKE.
© MEH TRL measures technology maturity from concept (TRL 1) to deployment (TRL 9). As a university research hub, TRL 7 represents our maximum achievable level: Technology validation in operational environment.
The Metal Energy Hub is funded by the European Union’s European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the Hessian Ministry of Economics, Energy, Transportation, Housing, and Rural Affairs.
