Dr Prakhar Mishra is a researcher in electrochemical energy conversion and storage technologies. His research expertise includes the synthesis, advanced physicochemical characterisation, and performance evaluation of nanostructured electrocatalysts for sustainable energy applications. His research interests focus on advancing electrochemical technologies for sustainable energy conversion and storage, with emphasis on hydrogen energy systems, energy storage devices, and carbon capture and utilisation.

In 2025, Prakhar completed his PhD in Chemistry from the University of Lucknow, where his research focused on “Nanocomposites of Spinel Oxides: Synthesis, Characterization, and Application to Alcohol Fuel Cells and Water Electrolysis”. During his doctoral studies, Prakhar was awarded a prestigious research internship at National United University, Taiwan, under the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) Fellowship, where he conducted research on the development of advanced electrocatalysts for enhanced hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions in alkaline water electrolysis.

Concurrently, he was appointed as a Research Project Associate for a project funded by the Uttar Pradesh Council of Science and Technology (UPCST), focusing on the synthesis and advanced characterisation of non precious metal based nanomaterials for electrochemical energy conversion and sustainable hydrogen production. In recognition of his significant research contributions, he is also a recipient of the UDDEEPAN Award 2023-24.

Currently, Prakhar is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellow at Moeve affiliated with RMIT University, where he is working on Innovative Electrolysis Technologies for Green Hydrogen Production.
