      abstract     = {Water electrolyzers are today of worldwide strategic
                      importance for the deployment of green hydrogen as an energy
                      carrier, and the ultimate integration of stochastic
                      renewable energies into the electrical grid at scale.
                      Targets for the total cost of ownership of hydrogen have
                      been constantly revised, but values around $1 to $2 per
                      kilogram of H2 are generally accepted to reach parity with
                      other energy conversion and storage strategies. However,
                      further advancement of electrolyzers while maintaining
                      durability and robustness of its cell/stack components is
                      still needed. This can only be accomplished through focused
                      research and development efforts that address efficiency,
                      degradation, and cost aspects of the technology.A growing
                      number of research groups are starting to participate in
                      this development with key contributions in the form of
                      fundamental and material advances. However, the high
                      deviation of reported results as well as the complex history
                      the tests performed, and components used have shown that
                      this growth creates challenges that hinder the development
                      of trust in the test results generated. Moreover, such lack
                      of trust ends up hampering the overall progress and leads to
                      wasted allocated resources. Contributors to the HydroGEN
                      Advanced water splitting Materials, Energy Materials
                      Network; and H2-New programs funded by the Department of
                      Energy in the USA; aligned with efforts by the International
                      Energy Agency (IEA) within the Electrolysis Annex 30 are
                      conducting a benchmarking effort: 1) to develop methods to
                      identify reference hardware, cell components, and materials;
                      and 2) to harmonize testing protocols and enable the
                      meaningful comparison of performance across the community.In
                      this presentation, the latest results of this effort will be
                      presented. The talk will also include updates on current
                      strategies among the different teams, round robin testing
                      results, protocol development and fine tuning of test
                      parameters and material specifications. This effort should
                      finally lead to the creation, validation, dissemination, and
                      adoption of accelerated test protocols that can ultimately
                      contribute to conducting collaborative studies on cell and
                      stack degradation.},
