Platinum-rhodium wire solar power generation

What is a platinum-rhodium thermocouple wire?

A new type of platinum:platinum-rhodium thermocouple wire which incorporates traces of yttrium in the platinum limb has been developed and tested in some typical working environments.

Will PEM become a dominant source of platinum and iridium demand?

While PEM uses more precious metals than alkaline – for example, around 0.3 kg of platinum per MW today – it is not expected to become a dominant source of platinum and iridium demand, even at the deployment levels in the SDS.

Is platinum a opportunity for the energy transition?

portunity for the energy transition, which must be seized. With unique insight into the PGMs, Johnson Matthey describes the benefits of platinum to support i s uptake and address concerns its stakeholders might have. Our aim is to ensure that this opportunit

Should platinum be a proxy for green hydrogen?

As hydrogen-linked demand for platinum grows through this decade, platinum is likely to be seen increasingly as a proxy for investment exposure to green hydrogen, given that green hydrogen itself is not a directly investible commodity. *Hydrogen Insights 2022 - The Hydrogen Council in collaboration with McKinsey & Co.

Will platinum be used in hydrogen fuel cells & electrolysers?

ing, so mining investment looks to the longer-term future.As the conventional automotive market for platinum (and its mining co-products palladium and rhodium) will decline with the internal combustion engine (ICE) being phased out, the prospective use of platinum in hydrogen fuel cells and electrolysers is therefore a critical incenti

Why is platinum a key enabler for the energy transition?

fuel, platinum is a key enabler for the energy transition.Platinum, almost uniquely among metals, will see rising demand in new applications naturally replacing declining demand in traditional fossil-fuelled applications, and will be much less subject to a widening supply-dem
