European Fuel Cells and Hydrogen
Piero Lunghi Conference
September 17th -19th, 2025
While 2020 may be remembered for the COVID-19 crisis, it has also been an unprecedented year for the global energy transition and the growing momentum of hydrogen technology. Many countries, in aligning their pandemic response with longer-term goals, have announced. strategies to develop hydrogen as a key energy carrier.
According to IEA, this is a moment of unprecedented opportunity for hydrogen. Hydrogen has seen several waves of interest in recent history, none of which fully translated into rising, sustainable investment. However, this time is different as hydrogen increasingly features in mainstream energy conversations across all regions, with a diverse group of countries and companies all seeing hydrogen as having a potentially valuable and wide-ranging part to play in the future of energy, as well as being a feedstock for industrial production.
The “European Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Piero Lunghi Conference” aims to discuss the scientific progress and the most modern applications of hydrogen and fuel cell-based technologies, to prove that the need for change is a resource to cultivate. Such a view is reflected in the cross-cutting topics and wide range of applications considered one of the pillars of future European energy and transport systems, making a valued contribution to the transformation to a low carbon economy by 2050.
The European Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Piero Lunghi Conference 2025 (EFC 2025) is a well-known conference in the fields of hydrogen energy and fuel cell technologies, held biannually in Italy.
EFC 2025 will continue the strong tradition as one of the leading international conferences in the field of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies, providing an excellent opportunity to present recent technical progress, establish new contacts, and to exchange technical, industrial and business information.
EFC 2025, arriving at its 11th edition, aims to bring together academia, research world, industry, public sector to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of Hydrogen and Fuel Cells technologies and clean energy. It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of Hydrogen and Fuel Cell technologies and clean energy.
It is organized by ATENA (High Technology District in the field of Energy and Environment), ENEA (the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development), University of Perugia and University “Parthenope” of Naples, with a long and durable tradition since the first edition in 2005.
Authors and presenters are invited to participate in this event to intensify international cooperation, expand understanding and promote efforts and disciplines in the area of Hydrogen technologies. Dissemination of knowledge through the presentation of research results, state-of-the-art, new developments and novel concepts in this area will be the key driver in the preparation of the conference program.
If you have any issues or questions about the submission process or would like to present on a topic area that is not reflected in this list, please contact info@europeanfuelcells.com
A variety of sessions are available for presentations as it allows flexibility to theauthors. All sessions shall be quality driven.
WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE
The event is open to all those with an interest in Hydrogen and Fuel Cells technologies and in clean energy in general. Whether you represent the political influence, academia, research world, industry, public sector or simply are interested in cleaner and greener energy technology, at EFC 2025 you will find cutting edge insights and valuable contacts.
The event will be a major opportunity for intensifying international cooperation, expanding understanding and promoting efforts and disciplines in the area of Hydrogen and Fuel Cells. Dissemination of knowledge through the presentation of research results, state-of-the-art developments and novel concepts in this area will be the key driver in the preparation of the conference program.
CONFERENCE SCOPE
The European Fuel Cells Technology & Applications - Piero Lunghi Conference intends to outline the international state of the art of Hydrogen and Fuel Cells technologies and to provide short, medium and long-term visions on research and development in the field, as well as on market opportunities, global policies and future energy scenarios.
The conference aims to reply to the several open questions, which continue to challenge the Hydrogen and Fuel Cells world. It will be our target to provide a clear picture of the status of Hydrogen and Fuel Cells technologies, to consolidate the vision and reframe strategies and objectives, and to promote systematic collaboration between industry, research institutions, customers and society.
AREAS OF INTEREST
Topics cover all Hydrogen and Fuel Cells technologies with a focus on their applications.The following list summarizes the main topics but doesn't intend to be comprehensive.
