Hydrogen Day

04 June 2026, 08:30 - 15:30

On June 4, 2026, RAI Automotive Industry NL is organizing Hydrogen Day. WHydrogen was once seen as the ultimate solution. Today, the picture is more complex, and building a strong hydrogen industry for mobility has proven to be more challenging than many expected. Even so, important progress is being made, and the urgency of hydrogen in mobility continues to grow. During this Hydrogen Day, the realistic opportunities that hydrogen can offer will be examined. The increasing importance for the built environment and the energy sector will also be explored, especially now that the limits of new electricity connections are already coming into sight in parts of the Netherlands. What role can hydrogen play in this transition?

External event
Helmond (NL)

Join a day full of insights and discussion with leading international speakers, including Siemens and Cellcentric, the fuel cell supplier behind the joint venture of Daimler Truck AG, Volvo Group AB, and Toyota. Experts from TU Delft will share their knowledge, and NLHydrogen will provide its vision on the current state of affairs and future developments.

For whom

Professionals, companies, policymakers, and researchers active in the (automotive) hydrogen sector who want to accelerate the transition to sustainable road transport.
