The 3rd edition of Hydrogen Expo is approaching, an Italian exhibition-conference entirely dedicated to the technological sector for the development of the hydrogen supply chain which will return to Piacenza Expo again this year, from 11 to 13 September 2024.
More than three months after the opening of the gates, the event organized by Mediapoint & Exhibitions can already count on over 125 accredited exhibitors, a number which – underline the promoters – certifies its primary importance also in the European panorama.
The event also obtained the patronage of various institutions, including the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, ENEA (National Agency for new technologies, energy and sustainable economic development), the Emilia-Romagna Region and the Municipality of Piacenza.
The 3rd edition of Hydrogen Expo will also be able to count on the close collaboration with H2IT – the Italian Hydrogen Association, which has been entrusted with the organization of an important part of the rich schedule of meetings, conferences and workshops that will enliven the three days in Piacenza.
A particular focus will be dedicated to the prospects for using hydrogen in the road, rail and sea transport sectors. Ample space will also be dedicated to market innovations in the construction, lifting and handling machinery sectors, but also industrial cleaning.
The program of events – currently being defined – will then be drawn up in close collaboration with the trade associations and bodies that sponsor the event, but also with the exhibiting companies themselves, who will offer participants the latest technological innovations and will offer the their experience through workshops and case-histories.
“We are very satisfied with such an already high number of people signing up for our event, also because it is clear from this that the main market operators, including foreign ones, have realized the value of the Piacenza exhibition compared to the other events present in Italy” commented Fabio Potestà , President of Mediapoint & Exhibitions and creator of the event. “This trust gratifies us but, at the same time, increases our responsibility in satisfying the expectations of exhibitors and visitors, and this also by creating an adequate program of conferences that we are defining in recent weeks also in collaboration with some of the numerous trade associations that support Hydrogen Expo 2024”.
In the context of the fair, on 12 September, the 2nd edition of the IHTA–Italian Hydrogen Technology Awards will be held, the awards designed to give greater visibility (including international) to the work of companies operating both in Italy and abroad in the technological supply chain of hydrogen, highlighting its professionalism, know-how, development and strategic role, factors that constitute real capital for the benefit of the entire national and European economy.
As tradition for all events organized by Mediapoint & Exhibitions, the gala dinner reserved for the participants of the event, which will be held in the beautiful Sala degli Arazzi of the Alberoni Gallery in Piacenza, has been scheduled for Wednesday 11 September (opening day of the event).
