Represented by its Chief Technology Officer, Dr. Emory De Castro, Advent proudly shared a booth with Los Alamos National Laboratory. Dr. De Castro discussed progress updates on the new Advent membrane electrode assembly (“MEA”), which is currently being developed within the framework of L’Innovator, the Company’s joint development program with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Los Alamos National Laboratory (“LANL”), Brookhaven National Laboratory (“BNL”), and National Renewable Energy Laboratory (“NREL”). Once commercialized, the new Advent MEA is expected to redefine the MEA market globally and further validate Advent’s leading position in the electrochemistry components business.
