BAVARIA – An international Hydrogen Hub
The Bavarian State Ministry of Economic Affairs, Regional Development and Energy together with Bayern International the Hydrogen Center Bavaria (H2.B) and the HYDROGEN DIALOGUE offer a varied social programme for international delegations in the course of the HYDROGEN DIALOGUE from December 4 to 6.
The social programme “Bavaria – an international hydrogen hub” includes visits of major Bavarian hydrogen companies, networking elements and evening events with the aim of connecting international visitors interested in hydrogen technologies and solutions with Bavarian and other national and international stakeholders.
Bavarian Hydrogen Expertise
Bavaria is an important driver for a successful hydrogen economy in Europe. The state had already published a hydrogen strategy before the German government and created the Hydrogen Center Bavaria (H2.B), the central strategy and coordination office in Bavaria for national and international hydrogen actors. Together with its more than 360 partners in the Hydrogen Alliance Bavaria, Bavaria represents a very successful location for hydrogen expertise along the entire value chain.
Bavaria offers international hydrogen players and partners technologies for the production, conversion, storage, delivery and use of green hydrogen that demonstrate solutions for decarbonizing the energy, industry and mobility sectors. At the same time, Bavaria, with its strong industry, has a high demand for imported, sustainable hydrogen.
With the event HYDROGEN DIALOGUE – Summit & Expo, NürnbergMesse offers a meeting point for national and international decision makers and experts from business, science and politics to come together in Nuremberg, Bavaria, in order to exchange knowledge and to position themselves successfully in the hydrogen economy.
