Register now for this upcoming conference hosted and organized by the Clean Combustion Research Center (CCRC), this in-person conference on Hydrogen-Based Mobility and Power aims to gather delegates from academia, government laboratories, and industry to highlight critical challenges related to the feasibility and value of hydrogen and ammonia. This four-day conference brings together renowned speakers from academia and subject matter experts, and is structured around three topics:

1. Use of hydrogen and ammonia for mobility and power generation: This topic explores technologies to efficiently convert hydrogen in the power generation and transportation sector. These will be discussed with road, oil, marine and aviation as the primary modes of transport, and how hydrogen could be a key enabler for the mobility as a service sector. 

2. Production and availability of hydrogen and ammonia with zero carbon impact: This topic focuses on the different methods of manufacturing hydrogen with the possibility of its having no climate impact. The subjects of life-cycle analysis and the monitoring of robust sequestration will be discussed here, particularly concerning hydrogen being able to provide a greener alternative to batteries as an energy storage solution. The feasibility of distributing hydrogen via an ammonia pathway will be discussed in this section as well. 

3. Infrastructure and distribution of hydrogen and ammonia: This topic focuses on the challenges of realizing an infrastructure for such carbon-free fuels, including containing, transporting and transferring them from infrastructure to vehicle, and the best way to ensure that there is a coupling of demand and supply such that one does not outstrip the other. Scale-up will be an important part of this theme. 

A student e-Poster competition will also be held during the research conference. There will be three winners, and the winners will be announced during the poster session on October 25. Students willing to present should submit their abstracts here – the deadline is October 13. To receive the presentation template and more details, please email Aliya.nadinova@kaust.edu.sa

Registration is now open for in-person attendees until October 15.
