The European Research Council (ERC) has awarded a prestigious €10 million Synergy Grant to 2DPolymembrane, a research project aiming to develop ultra-thin, high-precision two-dimensional polymer membranes with transformative applications in energy and environmental science.
Prof. Xinliang Feng, Director at the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics in Halle, acts as the corresponding Principal Investigator in this new research project, which unites research teams from the Technical University of Dresden and Leiden University in the Netherlands. “2DPolyMembrane” will be funded by the EU for six years, beginning in April 2025.
“This ERC Synergy Grant is a tremendous recognition of the collaborative work we’re doing to push the boundaries of 2D polymer membrane-based technologies. Our approach opens the door to breakthrough applications in energy storage and power generation. This research will push the boundaries of what’s possible, offering solutions that can lead to significant advancements in sustainability and performance across multiple sectors.”, said Feng looking into the future.

[News from KSI Meinsberg, 15 Oct 2024]
During the Xecs Matchmaking Event in Hamburg on October 15, two exceptional Euripides² and Penta projects – SAP4MA and PLANtAR – were recognized for their pioneering innovations and significant impact. Both projects represent a balanced consortium of large industries, SMEs, and Research and Technology Organizations (RTOs), showcasing the power of collaborative innovation.
The PENTA Project PLANtAR has been honored with the prestigious Penta Innovation Award 2024, recognizing its remarkable work in advancing smart farming and sustainable agriculture. PLANtAR has developed cost-efficient, miniaturized, biocompatible monitoring electronics. These sensors detect pests, plant pathogens, soil moisture, soil nitrate content, CO2 levels, and more, helping farmers apply targeted treatments to reduce chemical use while improving efficiency.
