Energy Center - Politecnico di Torino
Convergent Science and SAE International
Torino Section are delighted to announce the first edition of the Hydrogen for
Sustainable Mobility Forum, taking place at the Energy Center of Politecnico di
Torino on October 17–18, 2023.
This two-day workshop will focus on the potential of green hydrogen as a fuel for sustainable transportation systems. Technical presentations and a business-focused keynote will offer a comprehensive overview of innovative, state-of-the-art hydrogen technologies. Attendees will learn about the research activities underway in academia and industry, both in the Turin area and around the globe, to develop a new generation of hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines and other hydrogen devices.
This workshop presents a valuable opportunity to connect and exchange ideas with an international cohort of attendees. We invite all stakeholders, including OEMs, tier 1 suppliers, public entities, decision makers, engineers, and researchers from industry and academia, to join us for this event.

Event Details
DAY 1: CONVERGE Application Workshop
Tuesday, October 17, 2023
The CONVERGE Application Workshop is a free one-day event focused on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling of hydrogen technologies. Our lineup of technical experts will share their latest research into hydrogen internal combustion engines, fuel cells, and storage systems. Furthermore, our own Convergent Science engineers will showcase CONVERGE’s solutions for overcoming the challenges of hydrogen CFD simulations.
DAY 2: 1st International Workshop “H24ICE: Hydrogen as a Fuel for Internal Combustion Engines”
Wednesday, October 18, 2023
The 1st International Workshop “H24ICE: Hydrogen as a Fuel for Internal Combustion Engines” is organized by SAE International Turin Section.
The workshop will open with a keynote address from Kelly Senecal, co-founder of Convergent Science, visiting professor at the University of Oxford, and author of Racing Toward Zero: The Untold Story of Driving Green. Following the opening keynote, a series of business-focused talks and technical presentations will offer a comprehensive overview of the most innovative technologies for hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines. Our speakers will provide a variety of perspectives on hydrogen engines for different market segments, including racing and high-performance, heavy-duty, and off-road applications.
