Prof Magdalena Dudek is head of a research team working on renewable energy sources, energy storage technologies and electrochemical energy sources with a particular focus on fuel cell technology. She is the author/co-author of more than 300 publications, with a Hirsch Index H =23. Prof. Dudek has extensive experience in the development of international and national projects on the application of renewable energy, hydrogen, and fuel cells in decentralised energy systems, as well as mobile or transport applications.
Some of her Innovative projects in the field of fuel cell applications include the development, design and implementation of a hybrid energy source (battery plus PEMFC fuel cell stack) for a drone, a motor glider or an electric car.
She is currently leading a project to develop an off-grid energy system based on renewable energy sources to be integrated with a hydrogen storage method and used in combined heat and power production units (CHP units).
As an academician, Prof. Dudek gives lectures on energy efficiency, hydrogen technologies, fuel cells, energy conversion, energy storage and renewable energy technologies.
