Joint Final Event of the European Integrated Project

International Workshop and Exhibition

Solid State Hydrogen Storage
From Fundamental Research to Industrial Application
Date: October, 5 - 6, 2010
Location: Envipark, Torino, Italy, →  Google Maps
Fees: Participation to the Workshop is free of charge

Final Program

Scope of the workshop:

  • Industrial perspectives and strategies in the field of hydrogen storage
  • Current technical and market barriers, market requirements and status quo of solid state hydrogen storage
  • Presentation of main scientific and technical results of the projects
  • Demonstration of status of solid state hydrogen storage and of hydrogen powered products in technical exhibition
  • Fields of advantageous application of solid state hydrogen storage

Special Highlights

  • Highly qualified invited speakers from industry and hydrogen research institutions
  • Talks from the project members giving a summary of the achievements and highlights of the projects
  • Posters showing in detail individual research results of COSY fellows and NESSHY project teams
  • Exhibition on hydrogen technology and its applications
  • Demonstration of solid state hydrogen storage systems
  • Panel discussion to suggest future directions in supporting the deployment of solid state hydrogen storage

Who should attend?

  • The symposium is targeted towards end users, developers, and scientists from industry and academia;
  • Particularly users of hydrogen storage like energy producers with a need for energy storage, hydrogen suppliers, fuel cell producers, transport industry, and producers of autonomous energy and/or hydrogen consumers (e.g. telecom stations); and
  • Decision makers from communities, authorities and standardization bodies.

Acknowledgement of Financial support

The organisers of the workshop and the project partners thankfully acknowledge the financial support from the European Union under contract numbers SES6-518271 (NESSHY) and MRTN-CT-2006-035366 (COSY).
