Fuel cell systems can play a critical role in changing our society by providing a path to a sustainable energy supply with a greatly reduced threat to our environment. But much is yet to be done to bring fuel cell systems into the main stream of our educational and technical communities. The first step is to use engineering to bring fuel cell science to the systems we need for a sustainable society. The present conference will focus on that task. The program will present an up-to-date review of the technological, developmental and manufacturing status of all types of fuel cells world-wide. The conference will focus on contemporary themes that demonstrate the path from systems to the science that is needed to bring them to life. Oral and poster presentations are invited from all sectors of industry and academia. Full papers will be published in the International Journal of Fuel Cell Science and Technology, the leading ASME publication in this field.

World-renowned national/international speakers will be invited to discuss all aspects of fuel cell technology, manufacturing and commercialization.
