Hyundai Motor Group to host online hydrogen forum

Hyundai Motor Group has announced it will be hosting a virtual forum which represents the Group’s plans for hydrogen-based products and technologies. The forum, called ‘Hydrogen Wave’, will also provide an insight into the Group’s future vision of a sustainable hydrogen society.

The forum, which is exclusively online, starts on September 7, 15:00 KST (08:00 UTC), and will be live streamed via the Group’s YouTube channel. Investigating and exploring the concept of a future sustainable hydrogen society, Hydrogen Wave is open for participation to industry, media and the wider public.

The Group has also launched a microsite that provides a glimpse of future hydrogen products and technologies that will be unveiled at Hydrogen Wave, as well as a real-world exhibition taking place in the city of Goyang, South Korea, from September 8 to 11.

Falling on the ‘International Day of Clean Air for Blue Skies’, an annual September 7 event that was proposed by South Korea and ratified by the United Nations, Hydrogen Wave will demonstrate the future vision for hydrogen energy and a global hydrogen society based on the Group’s decades-long rich expertise and experience in hydrogen technology development.

The Group will present its vision of a future hydrogen society by unveiling its exciting plans and business strategies for new hydrogen mobility technology, next-generation fuel cell systems and applications to diverse industries beyond automotive.

State-of-the-art future fuel cell electric vehicles – as well as other innovative applications – will be unveiled during the forum. Cutting-edge hydrogen application systems and products from the Group’s affiliates will also be presented at the exhibition, further showcasing and detailing how a hydrogen society can be formed and realised.
