New topics will be determined based upon project results and research frontier developments.

Revolutionary breakthroughs in catalysis would be replacing expensive and scarce noble metals(PGMs) with cheaper and more abundant materials, e.g. alloys, advanced carbon nanostructures, carbonates, nitrides or mixed oxides; important in view of securing critical raw materials (CRM) for future generations as well as cost and environmental issues.

New partners may be included to iCSI according to the regulations implemented to the Consortium Agreement.
