ZBT Hydrogen Energy Symposium 2026

The ZBT Hydrogen Energy Symposium is back for its third edition: The ZBT Research School invites researchers and early-career scientists to share the latest findings in hydrogen research – ranging from electrolysis and fuel cells to storage, transportation, safety, materials, components, systems, and simulation.

Are you working on hydrogen technologies and looking to showcase your research, get feedback, and network with the community? Then the ZBT Hydrogen Energy Symposium (ZHyEnS) in Duisburg is the place for you. Building on the successful format of recent years, the ZBT Research School will once again bring together experts and early-career researchers on 18. November 2026 – for an intensive day filled with expert presentations, discussions, and networking.

Call for Abstracts and Programme

The focus is on contributions covering the entire spectrum of hydrogen and electrochemistry research:

Functional Materials and Electrochemical Systems
Fuel Cells and Electrolysers
Hydrogen Infrastructure (Storage, Transportation, Safety, and Regulations)
Applications in Mobility, Industry, and Energy Systems

Call for Abstracts

The call for submissions (short talks or posters) is now open. Submit your abstract by 2. July 2026, and utilise ZHyEnS as a platform to showcase your findings — whether they are fundamental, application-oriented, or interdisciplinary.
