The third Royce Hydrogen conference celebrates success in supporting the translation of solutions for materials challenges in hydrogen applications. Hear about projects supported through Round 4 of the Royce Industrial Collaboration Programme.
Learn about Round 5 project objectives and collaborators and hear from guest speakers.
Receive updates on the Royce Hydrogen Accelerator and UK-HyRES programme, and on the development of capabilities at Royce partners. Meet Royce Research Area Leads.
There will be opportunities to network, and for tours of the facilities at Cranfield University.
