Degree in Chemistry with specialization in Polymer Science at the University of Pisa; 2nd level international master course in innovative polymeric membrane technology at the University of Genoa. Academic researcher at the DCCI Macromolecule Lab of the University of Pisa and at the Polymers and Biomaterials Laboratory of the University of Manchester, UK. He moved to Acta Spa (now Enapter) in the R&D department and concentrated on the innovative development of membranes and catalysts for alkaline fuel cells and electrolysers, collaborating with Italian and British Universities, reaching the position of Project Manager for an innovative development of alkaline fuel cells in collaboration with the US Army, Du Pont and six US universities. After reaching the position of team coordinator, he left the company to operate as an independent consultant with several companies involved in the production and application of hydrogen, from technical/scientific point of view and even as commercial director for the electrolyser manufacturing company H2 Nitidor Srl. He was co-founder of the Dutch company Clean-H B.V., created for the research and development of electrolysers to be installed inside wind turbine towers, and H2 Engineering d.o.o., a Slovenian company created for the realization of a revolutionary patented high pressure electrolyser (capable to reach 100 bar and beyond directly from the electrolytic stack). He is cofounder and shareholder of CTS H2Srl, a hydrogen/energetic system integration Italian company. Recently he workedas R&D director and staff coordinator of H2EnergySrl, and other than R&D director of CTS H2 he is collaborating with other company as R&D consultant. He is shearing the 20 years experience in the hydrogen field, making conferences about the electrolysis technologies at academic institutions (i.e. University of Genoa, Summer School of introduction to Renewable Energies at University of Udine).
