The Sea4Volt project officially kicked off in Dresden, Germany, on 9–10 October 2025, bringing together eight partners to develop a low-temperature anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolyser capable of producing green hydrogen directly from seawater.

Coordinated by VTT and co-funded by the European Union and the Clean Hydrogen Partnership, the initiative will combine expertise in electrolyser design, membranes, and protective coatings to create a durable, cost-effective, and PFAS-free solution for seawater electrolysis.

The Dresden meeting marks the first step in turning this collaborative vision into reality, advancing sustainable hydrogen production from seawater as a viable pathway for clean energy.
