HydrogEn Expo 2024 will bring together over 190 exhibitors at Piacenza Expo 11-13^th September to showcase the latest advancements in hydrogen production, fuel cells, storage, and related technologies. This event will serve as a pivotal platform for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), rental companies, and construction firms to connect with industry experts and suppliers, who can help them incorporate hydrogen into their operations and significantly reduce CO₂ emissions.

By fostering collaboration, knowledge sharing, and the creation of new supply chains, HydrogEn Expo 2024 aims to accelerate the adoption of hydrogen-powered equipment in the construction sector. Visitors will explore practical and cost-effective solutions to develop hydrogen-powered machinery, while simultaneously building a robust support infrastructure to ensure reliable operations across European jobsites.

The accompanying free-to-attend conference programme will delve into the broader applications of hydrogen, such as road and rail transport, maritime shipping, and aviation. By learning from other industries facing similar challenges, participants can gain valuable insights into overcoming hurdles in the construction sector.

Exemplifying the support of the industry, HydrogEn Expo 2024 has secured the patronage of ANFIA (the Italian association representing lifting and transport equipment) and UNRAE (the association representing foreign manufacturers of industrial vehicles in Italy, including on-road dump trucks and chassis for construction industry applications).

“HydrogEn holds immense potential as a clean fuel to decarbonise the construction industry,” said Fabio Potestà, director of Mediapoint & Exhibitions, the organiser of HydrogEn Expo. “We are thrilled to welcome members of the construction industry to Piacenza Expo this September to facilitate networking, knowledge exchange, and partnerships that will drive the adoption of hydrogen in this vital sector.”

HydrogEn Expo takes place 11-13^th September 2024 at Piacenza Expo in Italy.
