International Association for Hydrogen Safety

The Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (FCH JU) stakeholders’ general assembly will take place on 26 and 27 October in Brussels, Belgium.

First organised in 2008 to mark the launch of the FCH JU, the stakeholders’ general assembly is an annual event designed to inform all interested parties about the activities of the FCH JU and acquire feedback for future planning of the programme. It is also a key platform for European and global stakeholders across sectors to come together to examine and assess the current position of this emerging industry.

The Stakeholders’ General Assembly 2009 is focused on:
- the progress of the FCH JU after its first year of operation and on forward planning of the research agenda;
- an analysis of the market, as well as the political developments affecting the commercialisation of fuel cell and hydrogen technologies.
