Opening with a discussion of the economics and science of climate change, conference sessions will then focus on current and prospective policies in Europe and around the world, the financial community’s support of the fuel cells industry, and the current operation of fuel cell technology in stationary and transport applications from the perspective of manufacturers as well as end users.

Fuel Cell Early Markets 2007 will bring together government policy makers, representatives of fuel cell industry associations, financial fund managers, equity analysts, venture capitalists, fuel cell manufacturers, and end users in the stationary and transport markets, with an anticipated audience of over 100 key decision makers. The conference program will feature 15 presentations preceded by an intensive three-hour preconferece seminar on the morning of 11 June. The seminar will be instructed by Dr. Christopher Hebling of Fraunhofer Institute and Prof. Dr. Rex Harris of University of Birmingham, and will cover the most important aspects of fuel cell technology and hydrogen as it relates to fuel cells.
