9th Industry Workshop / 08. Oktober 2026 - 09. Oktober 2026
Advanced Alkaline-based Electrolysis
The 9th Industry Workshop on Alkaline-Based Electrolysis aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art in alkaline electrolysis (AEL) and anion exchange membrane electrolysis (AEMEL), while also addressing upcoming technological advancements and future development pathways.
The workshop offers a dedicated platform for in-depth discussion on technical and economic trends, as well as key challenges facing the AEL/AEMEL sector. Renowned experts from both industry and academia will share insights into their latest technologies, innovations, and development strategies.
The event is specifically targeted at component suppliers, electrolyzer manufacturers and end users. To ensure an interactive workshop atmosphere, on-site participation is limited to 100 attendees.
Coffee breaks and the networking evening at the end of the first workshop day provide excellent opportunities for exchange and collaboration among participants. In addition to on-site attendance, remote participation will also be available.
