Swiss Pavilion at the Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Expo
Swiss companies present their cutting-edge technology at the World Smart Energy Week in Tokyo
The Embassy of Switzerland in Japan and Switzerland Global Enterprise (S-GE), with support of the Consulate of Switzerland in Osaka / Swissnex in Japan, will organize a Swiss Pavilion to present cutting-edge Swiss hydrogen technology at the World Smart Energy Week/ International Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Expo at Tokyo Big Sight, West Hall (booth no. 6-18) from February 28 to March 01.
As part of the World Smart Energy Week, the International Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Expo (H2 & FC EXPO) is a leading international exhibition showcasing various technologies, components, materials, devices and finished fuel cells for hydrogen and fuel cell R&D and manufacturing, taking place twice a year in the Tokyo area (March and September).
In recent years, as governments around the world have been forced to respond to climate change, hydrogen has attracted attention as an important part of the solution, and is positioned as one of the priority areas in Japan’s Green Growth Strategy.
Switzerland is an innovation hub, which brings together companies and scientists that develop know-how and new technologies in the hydrogen industry, and strives to create a green hydrogen ecosystem in the mobility sector to reach carbon neutrality by 2050.
In Switzerland, similar to Japan, hydrogen is seen as an important pillar in the development of the decarbonization of the economy in the coming years. Switzerland has a large number of innovative start-ups and well-established SMEs that offer cutting-edge hydrogen and fuel cell technology, backed by the country’s unique “Switzerland Innovation” ecosystem, which provides excellent cooperation between industry and the country’s higher education sector.
In addition, after the exhibition, the Swiss exhibitors will also be able to participate in a reception event at the Swiss Ambassador’s residence serving as a unique platform for the companies to creating opportunities for fruitful connections with key industry figures.
