Events

ZBT conferences and workshops, ZBT speakers at industry events, participation in trade fairs and exhibitions – there are plenty of opportunities to meet us and get in touch. Here is an overview.

In order to keep our work in line with the latest technical developments and framework conditions, ZBT regularly organises exciting events.

These provide an opportunity to discuss different perspectives on problems and solutions and to expand your own network in the field of hydrogen. This ensures that our solutions meet the actual needs of industry and that our innovation partners remain informed about the current status of our research work.


You can also meet us at numerous industry events.

ZBT Hydrogen Days – The technology forum for business and science

The first edition of the ZBT Hydrogen Days took place at the beginning of 2025. The response was encouragingly large for a premiere, and the feedback afterwards was extremely positive. This makes us confident that the second edition will also be a success.


So make a note in your diary now: on the 18 and 19 February 2026, researchers and developers will meet again in the hydrogen hotspot of Duisburg for the ZBT Hydrogen Days, the new technology forum for hydrogen technologies such as fuel cells, electrolysis, infrastructure and hydrogen derivatives.


Speakers wanted! Would you like to present your innovations at the Hydrogen Days? Then get in touch with Theresa Schredelseker! See below for contact details.

Hydrogen Energy Symposium – the ZBT Research School invites you

Are you completely immersed in research into hydrogen technologies? Then the Hydrogen Energy Symposium in Duisburg is the place for you! Every autumn, the ZBT Research School invites you to take a deep dive into hydrogen research.Ihr steckt bis über beide Ohren in der Erforschung von Wasserstofftechnologien? Dann seid ihr beim Hydrogen Energy Symposium in Duisburg genau richtig! Jährlich im Herbst lädt die ZBT Research School zum Deep-Dive in die Wasserstoffforschung.
On 12 November 2025, we will once again delve deep into your and our research results. Talks and posters, exchange and networking…
The call for abstracts is now open. We look forward to your contributions to the symposium!

ZBT at conferences and trade fairs

Transferring new knowledge to relevant target groups is important to us. That is why our scientists are listed as speakers on the programmes of many events.


We are also represented as exhibitors at several major industry events such as the Hannover Messe, the Hydrogen Technology World Expo in Hamburg and hy-fcell in Stuttgart, where we present excerpts from our work.


So there are many opportunities to get in touch with us.
