Leaders from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU), as they seek to expand collaborations related to their shared research interests in hydrogen and other low-carbon energy technology.

The two institutions have engaged in informal collaborations since 2018, sharing their knowledge via joint workshops on topics such as hydrogen storage and purification. In addition, experts from both institutions have produced multiple joint publications describing their hydrogen-related research. Other joint activities include a recent study exploring catalytic activity in electrochemical carbon dioxide conversion to products such as carbon monoxide and ethanol.
