260 Minds, One Mission – H2ALL at the Hydrogen Evening in Neuss
Packed rows, intense conversations and a real sense of momentum: the hydrogen evening in Neuss showed just how strong the interest in the energy transition is in the Rhineland. 260 participants from industry, science and politics – and we were right in the middle of it. March 21, 2026Participants

Organizer
Wasserstoff Hub RKN/Rheinland
What impressed us most: this was not a classic lecture. It was a real meeting place – with senior figures from NRW economic policy, science and industry working together on concrete solutions for the energy transition.
Big news: we are delighted to now officially be part of Wasserstoff Hub RKN/Rheinland e.V. The network brings together companies, research institutions and policymakers – exactly the constellation in which real change happens. We have already attended several of its events and experienced an incredibly motivated and open atmosphere every time.
What we take away from the evening:
→ Cross-border exchange is not a nice-to-have – it is crucial for scaling up the hydrogen economy.
→ The best ideas emerge in direct conversation. At our stand, connections were made that will last well beyond this evening.
→ Hydrogen only works when we think about it together – across sectors, countries and disciplines.
