MAGNESIS Magnetically enhanced electrocatalysis

Coordinator: FUNDACIO INSTITUT CATALA D'INVESTIGACIO QUIMICA (ES)

In the last years, electrochemistry and electrocatalysis are increasing their impact across several fields. A major driving force comes from the promise of substituting current fossil-fuel powered thermal methods in the industry by electrochemical alternatives, driven by renewable electricity. However, electrochemical methods are still far from reaching the desired target performance. In this landscape, the recent discovery of magnetic fields enhancing electrocatalytic processes offers a plausible new strategy. The idea of boosting an electrocatalytic reaction by an external magnetic field be…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

EU contribution: €12.4M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 6 years from 2026-03-01 to 2032-02-29.
