Materials Innovations in an Emerging
Hydrogen Economy is a new biannual conference that provides an opportunity
for global experts in the hydrogen field to discuss materials needs and
new technologies related to hydrogen-based alternative energy sources.
This conference has a unique interdisciplinary focus, which will generate
discussion on applications and technologies in the areas of hydrogen
production, storage, delivery and leakage detection. Emphasis will be
placed on materials innovations in an emerging hydrogen economy and key
questions of importance to current and future researchers and end users
will be addressed.
Interactive Technical Program
An exceptional technical program is offered at this event, consisting
of invited talks and panel discussions, which will highlight materials,
applied and basic research efforts, new materials, composites, and systems
for new and exciting advancements.
Special attention will be given to the practical application of technology
in the context of the larger ‘system’ rather than at a component
level view. Presentations will contain the latest research and developments
on applications in the areas of automotive, aerospace, military, medical
products, nanotechnology and advanced materials.
The technical program will focus on research activities, materials needs,
opportunities and sources for funding in the following four areas:
- Production
- Storage
- Delivery
- Leakage Detection/Safety
Who should attend this event?
This conference is organized for the global hydrogen community and interested
parties, including end users and researchers in government, academia,
and industry. The conference is ideal for those working in the field
of materials for hydrogen generation, storage and distribution and for
anyone interested in participating in this emerging technology.
New to the field? Special tutorials will be included to help orient
and introduce the hydrogen field to individuals new to this area and
highlight the needs and opportunities that exist.
Join this diverse group of forward-thinking people who are interested
in making an impact on the future. Make your plans to participate in
this conference!
