Date for your Diary
Tuesday 7th September 2021
We are delighted, after what has been a very difficult year, to be able to announce the date of the 2021 UK Hydrogen and Fuel Cell conference.
This is an extremely exciting time for the industry with major announcements on an almost daily basis. Although some may say we have been waiting for this for some time I feel we can truly say that for Hydrogen and Fuel Cells
The Time really is NOW
This well-established and highly respected event now in its 17th year, will look at both the Hydrogen Economy and the range of applications for Fuel Cells. Sessions will focus on the Production, Distribution and Use of Hydrogen. Market demand for hydrogen will cover Transport Applications as well as Remote and Stationary Power.
The conference is guaranteed to be a key date in the UK Hydrogen and Fuel Cell calendar.with key speakers from the public and private sectors including representatives from
FCH JU, BEIS, Johnson Matthey, Luxfer Gas Cylinders, Kiwa UK, Toyota, Wrightbus, Hyzon Motors , Engie, Umoe Advanced Composites, Swagelok Manchester, Zero Avia, Forresters, Progressive Energy, Ballard Power Systems, Cummins, Marks and Clerk , Arcola Energy, ENGIE, University of Birmingham, Enercy and HORIBA Group
Due to the cancelled 2020 conference and the bookings being rolled over, all of the exhibition stands are unfortunately already taken, although we are taking bookings for a reserve list .
We are however still offering the opportunity to become involved and speak at the conference as a Main Sponsors (£3,000) with a speaking opportunity in the Keynote session. Which would include logo placement on the website, mailings and social media for the next 6 months, an excellent opportunity to profile your business at this important and established event. The Main Sponsors position also includes 5 additional delegate passes which can be used for internal or external partners. We also have 2 remaining opportunities for workshop sponsors (£1,000) who would have a speaking position in one of the workshops and logo placement.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you are interested in any of the options above
