Florence Electrolyser Conference

HOSTING PARTNER

Welcome to Florence

For centuries, Florence has attracted merchants, scholars, and innovators from across Europe. A centre of trade, science, and new ideas during the Renaissance, the city remains a natural meeting place for international exchange. Today, this tradition continues as we gather in the heart of Tuscany to discuss the next generation of electrolyser technologies and industrial innovation.

Founded in 2020, the BEC series is a leading technical event for industrial electrolysis, bringing together experts from electrolyser manufacturers, project developers, industrial users, component suppliers, engineering companies and research organisations to discuss the latest developments in electrolyser technology, manufacturing, deployment and system integration.

This year marks the 10th edition of the BEC series. As a special edition, BEC26 will take place in Florence, Italy, in collaboration with Enapter as the event’s official Hosting Partner.

EXPLORE

... strategies for integrating large electrolysers into renewable systems, industrial processes, and value chains.

CONNECT

... with experts across the electrolyser value chain and exchange knowledge within a focused professional community.

OFFICIAL HOST

Enapter

Enapter is the market leader for AEM Electrolysers – innovative devices that produce green hydrogen. The company's patented and proven Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) technology eliminates the need of expensive raw materials such as iridium and enables maximum output from fluctuating renewable energies such as solar and wind and thus highly efficient production of green hydrogen thanks to a unique modular design. Thousands of Enapter AEM Electrolysers are already in use by over 340 customers in more than 50 countries in the fields of energy storage, industrial applications, refueling, power-to-x, and research. The Enapter Group is headquartered in Germany and has a R&D and production site in Italy.
