5 INDUSTRY FOCUSED CONFERENCE TRACKS

June 26-27

Hydrogen Technology Expo will host North America's must-attend techno-economic hydrogen conference focusing on the development of low-carbon hydrogen production, storage, and infrastructure development. A total of 5 conference tracks will take place simultaneously with conference attendees and speakers having the option to move freely between the different sessions. All attendees will receive the conference proceedings of the presentations from all 5 tracks.

Strategic Forum

Hydrogen Production, Storage, and Infrastructure Development

Fuel Cell Technology

Low-Carbon Fuels and Propulsion

Carbon Capture, Utilization, Storage & Blue Hydrogen

NEW TRACK FOR 2024

Strategic Forum

Our Strategic Forum will address policy, regulations and finance in the hydrogen and carbon capture sectors. The forum will bring together leading voices from the public and private spheres to present on the following topics:

  • Incentives: The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Inflation Reduction Act, etc.
  • Hydrogen and Carbon Capture targets being set by governments.
  • Infrastructure development: Policymakers developing the necessary infrastructure for the hydrogen and carbon capture economies including hydrogen hubs, pipelines, storage facilities and transportation.
  • Permitting and licensing for operational facilities to ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
  • Safety and Quality standards.
  • Research and development funding: Investment from both governments and private entities into cutting edge R&D projects.
  • Green finance and incentives: Financial institutions offering green bonds, loans, and investment opportunities.
  • Workforce development to secure the future of the hydrogen technology and carbon capture sectors.
  • Equity and Energy Justice.

2-Day Conference Program - June 26-27

Hydrogen Production, Storage, and Infrastructure Development

Bringing together hydrogen producers, energy majors, the oil and gas industry, pipeline operators, offshore wind and energy companies, utilities giants, port authorities, airports, renewable energy investors, engineering firms, heavy industry, steel producers, chemical and process industries, and technology suppliers, this conference will discuss and debate challenges, opportunities, and most importantly – solutions, to the emerging green hydrogen economy in North America. Topics will include, but not be limited to: 

  • Primary energy sources for green hydrogen production – solar, wind, biomass, nuclear
  • Energy conversion – electrolysis, biochemical, thermochemical, reforming
  • Design, simulation, test, monitoring, and control solutions for hydrogen plants
  • Driving down the cost of low carbon hydrogen
  • Business models for low carbon hydrogen
  • Building and integrating a global network for green hydrogen distribution
  • Refuelling solutions
  • The role of green hydrogen in decarbonizing heavy industry
  • Incorporating clean hydrogen into the renewable energy mix
  • Hydrogen storage – liquefication, compression, material-based, hydride storage, sorbents
  • Regulation and investment requirements to enable rapid scale-up and adoption

2-Day Conference Program - June 26-27


 

Fuel Cell Technology

Our Fuel Cell Technology conference track will bring together fuel cell manufacturers, materials suppliers, technical and engineering consultants, systems integrators, research institutes, NGO’s, as well as a wide range of end user markets to discuss the techno-economic challenges that must be overcome for wide scale commercialisation and adoption of hydrogen fuel cells. The two-day conference will prioritise presentations that showcase innovative solutions to drive down cost, increase efficiency, improve durability and reliability, and for scale-up for mass manufacturing. Topics will include, but not be limited to: 

  • Fuel cell market forecasts and regulation
  • Fuel cell materials – SOFC, coatings, catalysts, composites
  • PEM and fuel cell stacks – latest developments and improvements
  • Test and development – simulation, durability, range and performance, safety, certification
  • Design and packaging, size, weight, and integration with mobile and stationary applications
  • Air, thermal, and water management
  • Cost reduction, manufacturing, and automation of production
  • New applications, marine, aerospace, E-VTOL, UAV, drone, and space technology

2-Day Conference Program - June 26-27


 

Low-Carbon Fuels and Propulsion

The Low-Carbon Fuels and Propulsion conference track will look at the latest developments around hydrogen fuels and propulsion. Increasing regulations which limit greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) from vehicles are causing a global re-think on transportation networks. Against this backdrop, the development of alternative fuels and conversion of internal combustion engines to hydrogen has sparked an innovative way of making the most out of new and existing technologies. Manufacturers, materials suppliers, technical consultants, research institutes, NGOs, as well as a wide range of end users will look at how hydrogen-powered engines are finally starting to play a crucial role on the path towards a decarbonized industry. Topics will include, but not be limited to: 

  • Scalable hydrogen-based propulsion systems
  • Hydrogen internal combustion engine vehicles (HICEV)
  • Mature FCEV propulsion systems
  • Internal combustion engines
  • Dual-fuel flexibility conversion
  • Standalone powertrain solutions
  • Heavy-duty, aviation, marine and space application

2-Day Conference Program - June 26-27


 

Carbon Capture, Utilization, Storage & Blue Hydrogen

Hydrogen Technology Conference & Expo will be co-located with  Carbon Capture Technology Expo which will be a 2-day conference dedicated to discussing the role of carbon capture in decarbonizing heavy industry and how the combination of CCS and hydrogen will play a key role in the transition to creating a CO2-neutral energy supply. Join leading experts from the oil and gas sectors, renewable energy companies, NGO’s, government environmental and energy departments, engineering consultants, and a wide range of industries that are leading the charge in the deployment of carbon capture utilization and storage solutions. Topics will include, but not be limited to: 

  • Impact and potential of CCS on achieving global climate mitigation targets
  • Application in heavy and ‘hard-to-decarbonize’ sectors
  • CCS and hydrogen production
  • Commercialization – cost reduction, investment, and building the business model for CCS
  • Policy updates and global regulation,
  • Carbon pricing and carbon taxing
  • Updates from latest CCS projects
  • CO2 capture and separation – pre-combustion, post-combustion, oxyfuel combustion
  • Transportation solutions, compression, handling, and distribution
  • Storage – selection, planning, construction, and monitoring suitable storage sites
  • Testing – simulation, safety testing, durability, performance, certification
  • Materials – membranes, absorbents, activated carbon materials, MOFs
  • Utilisation – concrete, chemicals, polymers, fuels
