PEMFC’s:Degradation mechanisms and their mitigation

This four day course addressed the most relevant degradation mechanisms and the related mitigation strategies. Experts from industry and academia shared their experiences in the field. Group sessions and workshops identified priority areas and social events complemented the activities.

We thankfully acknowledge our sponsors:

To the more than forty delegates from Canada, Denmark, Finland, and Germany.
Their participation made this year's event a success.
