The international Conference for Fuel Cell Technologies and Green Hydrogen
The scientific conference promises an in-depth discussion of groundbreaking developments in the field of production-ready fuel cells and drive systems. With a particular focus on efficient manufacturing processes and the wide range of applications for green hydrogen, the conference programme in cooperation with the Fraunhofer IWU offers comprehensive insights into key aspects such as fuel cell stacks and components, as well as fuel cell systems and components.
The two-day event will present a variety of specialised lectures and interactive workshops that will allow participants to exchange ideas with experts in the field. In addition, 12 November offers the opportunity to attend an exclusive conference dinner in the impressive setting of Kraftverkehr Chemnitz.
For an even more intensive experience, laboratory tours are offered by partner institutes, which provide insights into current research projects and state-of-the-art technologies. An accompanying exhibition that presents our partners rounds off the event and enables participants to familiarise themselves with innovative products and services.
Take advantage of this unique opportunity to expand your knowledge, make contacts and gain an in-depth insight into the future of fuel cell technology.
