HeavyDuty Congress 2026 – Save the Date

The 4th HeavyDuty Congress will take place on 15 October 2026, at the Fraunhofer-inHaus Center in Duisburg.

The symposium is dedicated to hydrogen-based mobility in heavy-duty transportation and brings together experts from academia, industry, and politics. It focuses on current developments in the areas of commercial vehicles, technology, infrastructure, and political and economic conditions.

The ZBT, in collaboration with the cH2ance Transformation Hub, invites you to discuss technological advances, market potential, and prospects for the decarbonisation of heavy-duty transportation.

A tractor unit fitted with hydrogen tanks and a fuel-cell-powered car will be on display in the car park in front of the ZBT buildings during the HeavyDuty Congress 2023.
