Hydrogen & Fuel Cells Energy Summit
Maximizing commercial opportunities and partnerships in the renewable hydrogen & fuel cells industry
We are very excited to announce that the 4th edition of ACI’s Hydrogen & Fuel Cells Energy Summit will be taking place in Lisbon, Portugal on the 4-5th March 2020. The two day event will bring together key industry stakeholders from all facets of the hydrogen industry to discuss the required economical and infrastructural innovations for a sustainable future energy carrier. The key discussions will involve monetisation, latest technology implementations, material optimisation, production and transportation with case studies presented from across Europe.
The main objectives of the industry are to:
- Reduce the production cost of hydrogen and fuel cell systems
- Increase the electrical efficiency and the durability of the different fuel cells used
- Use H2 to support renewable energy source integration and the energy transition
With incredible advances recently in hydrogen it is the best time to explore this booming industry. Join us in Lisbon to discuss the latest innovations, exciting initiatives and the upcoming economic opportunities.
