Hydrogen is taking on a central role in the transition to a climate-friendly economy, built on renewable energy and supported by smart, efficient and environmentally responsible industrial processes.
This growing importance is reflected in the future direction of Hydrogen Dialogue. Organised by Messe Nürnberg, the event will become part of The smarter E Europe, bringing its platform for hydrogen technologies and applications closer to leading stakeholders in the renewable energy sector.
