Economy revolution by H2: an open discussion

26 e 27 giugno 2024
Palazzo Torriani
Largo Carlo Melzi, 2 - Udine

L’Università di Udine organizza un workshop sul tema dell’idrogeno, in collaborazione con Confindustria Udine.

Il workshop, che si inserisce nel progetto europeo KICstartH2 (Accelerating Sustainable Hydrogen Uptake Through Innovation and Education), prevede la partecipazione di relatori di diverse Università e realtà aziendali che parleranno delle applicazioni e delle sfide delle tecnologie basate sull’idrogeno.

Il workshop è rivolto a studenti universitari e di dottorato, ma anche a ricercatori, docenti e professionisti che desiderano conoscere meglio alcune applicazioni e le sfide delle tecnologie basate sull'idrogeno.
