Exemplary Energy would like to extend a (belated) note of congratulations to our intern Dario Tarquini for the completion of his Master of Engineering (Sustainable Energy) degree from RMIT last November.
Dario managed to achieve this success while working full-time with us at Exemplary, demonstrating his profound ability to juggle both his professional and academic responsibilities.
The focus of Dario’s thesis was “Cell Stacking Design to Enhance the Performance of the Proton Battery.” His research aimed to improve stack and material design for proton batteries, a novel energy storage technology that uses activated carbon as a hydrogen storage electrode. Proton batteries store energy in the form of hydrogen ions (protons) and offer benefits such as higher energy density and lower environmental impact compared to conventional energy storage technologies.
Dario explored various stack configurations and materials to determine the most effective balance between performance, durability and cost. By concentrating on the hydrogen storage electrode, an essential component of proton batteries, Dario contributed to enhancing their overall performance.
The completion of his Master of Engineering in Sustainable Energy has broadened Dario’s knowledge and skills in the sustainable energy field. As a dedicated member of the Exemplary Energy team, Dario looks forward to further exploring clean and efficient energy solutions and contributing to a more sustainable future.
Congratulations Dario!!
