Hydrogen Summit 2024
on Hydrogen Power Trains and Infrastructure

  3. Research institutes
  4. IFA – Institute for Innovative Automotive Drives

Invitation to the scientific conference as part of the joint funding project cleanEngine, funded by the Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport Affairs.

Topic: "Hydrogen Power Trains for Mobility and Transport"

Fuel cell drives are ideally suited to sustainably decarbonise mobility and transport and make a significant contribution to reducing climate change. This applies in particular to (heavy) commercial vehicles, buses, trains and special vehicles, agricultural and forestry vehicles and special machinery.
At around 33%, these vehicle classes cause an above-average amount of CO2 emissions. Every single commercial vehicle therefore has a much higher climate impact than private transport.
