Loughborough Team Shortlisted for Two International Awards
Loughborough Team Shortlisted for Two International Awards
We are thrilled to share that the LoCEL-H2 Project team at Loughborough University has been shortlisted for two international awards, recognising their work on the innovative battery electrolyser 🏆
The pioneering battery‑electrolyser system combines electrical storage, power supply and hydrogen production in one recyclable unit, delivering clean hydrogen without rare metals, membranes or expensive catalysts.
Backed by £12M funding and 20+ global partners, this innovation is already moving from concept to real-world deployment.
The project has firstly been selected as a finalist for the Energy Institute’s International Energy Awards 2026, which celebrate organisations, projects and individuals demonstrating excellence across the global energy sector. The LoCEL-H2 Project was shortlisted from more than 80 entries.
We have sice been shortlisted for the Hydrogen UK Innovation Project Award 2026, which recognises projects that have made significant advances in hydrogen innovation over the past year and are helping to drive scalable, cutting-edge technologies.
The award ceremonies will take place in February and March 2026, and we look forward to sharing the outcomes! Thank you to everyone across the consortium whose hard work and collaboration have made this recognition possible.
