Join us every day for live digital sessions featuring plenary talks and Q&A sessions covering the various areas of SOFC and SOEC technology.
Speakers from the National Energy Technology Laboratory/NETL (U.S.), Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy/EERE (U.S.), Advanced Research Projects Agency – Energy/ARPA-E (U.S.), New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization/NEDO (Japan), and Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking Program/FCH JU (EU) speak about the progress of their respective programs and future challenges that they are tackling.
Make sure to also join us for question and answer (Q&A) sessions that allow for attendee discussion on the submitted SOFC-XVII topics and presentations. With 12 topical areas (plus posters) covering 300 presentations, these Q&A sessions are excellent opportunities to connect and share with fellow researchers.
Finally, we are pleased that SOFC-XVII features the awarding of the inaugural ECS High-Temperature Energy, Materials, & Processes Division Subhash Singhal Award with a featured live address by the recipient on Monday.
