Start of the year with many valuable visits<\/h1>\n

The Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Center looked forward to welcoming numerous visitors from politics, business, institutes and associations at the beginning of 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It started in January with a visit from\u00a0Julia Eisentraut<\/a>, a member of the state parliament. The scientist was very interested in our research into\u00a0climate-neutral energy systems<\/b>. The exchange on science policy, management and communication was also particularly valuable. The following week, we continued with the\u00a0Duisburg Rotary Clubs<\/a>, who informed themselves about our work and with whom we discussed our role in the\u00a0hydrogen ramp-up<\/b>\u00a0in the region. Shortly afterwards, a delegation from the\u00a0A*STAR – Agency for Science, Technology and Research<\/a>\u00a0in Singapore visited us and was particularly interested in the possibilities of\u00a0importing energy via ammonia<\/b>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

In February, we had several guest speakers, including\u00a0Prof. Plamen Atanassov<\/a>, who gave an inspiring lecture on his electrochemical research at the University of Irvine. The very next day, two speakers from\u00a0Lhyfe<\/a>\u00a0visited us and reported on the status of the planning for the\u00a0electrolyzer at the Port of Duisburg<\/a>. During their visit, two representatives of the\u00a0Canadian embassy<\/b>\u00a0were particularly interested in our research in the field of\u00a0energy carriers<\/a>,\u00a0hydrogen infrastructure<\/a>\u00a0and our open hardware project “Open Fuel Cell<\/a>“.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

We are sure that these will not be the last visits in 2024 and look forward to all the exchanges that will follow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
