European Fuel Cell Technology & Applications
Piero Lunghi Conference & Exhibition December 11-13, 2013

“Piero Lunghi Conference & Exhibition” (EFC13) will be celebrating its
5th edition with a renewed but still renowned scientific programme.

Fuel cells are improving unstoppably, not only in terms of efficiency but also in durability and reliability, and are now slowly edging into the market. Therefore, EFC13 will promote all preliminary experience of real-life applications of fuel cells or fuel cell-based products. Accordingly, a specific track named "Approaching the market" was introduced.

In addition, the event will pool research activities on the use of fuel cells for producing chemicals taking advantage of anodic and cathodic local conditions to enhance specific reactions for the production of H2, CO, H2O etc.

The core part of the event will stay focused on fuel cells development, tests and modeling as well as experiences on innovative fuels, fuel processing and system design. All environmental issues approached through fuel cells will be part of the "decarbonizing society" track. New ideas will offer the opportunity to reflect on the future of fuel cells and stimulate a different way of seeing today’s solutions.

EFC13 is a meeting place of fuel cell experts, so we strongly invite you also to submit your "bad ideas" in the application of the technology, as we know, quoting Bohr, that "An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made".

To support the dissemination activities of national and international projects (e.g. FCH-JU), a specific session will be introduced to allow the presentation of project progress and compare results.

We look forward to your participation in the 2013 “Piero Lunghi Conference & Exhibition”!
