Toward the era of net-zero carbon emissions, sustainable energy, hydrogen economy, and the advent of green energy and clean environment of hydrogen energy and fuel cells

       〔稿源：2024-09-24 / 工商時報〕

       Taiwan is stepping up its commitment to global net-zero goals through various sustainable and clean energy strategies, with "hydrogen energy" taking a prominent role. Under this initiative, National Chin-Yi University of Technology (NCUT) is actively contributing to the hydrogen energy movement by hosting major events in 2024, including the 19th National Hydrogen Energy and Fuel Cell Academic Symposium, the 16th National Student Cup Hydrogen Energy Vehicle Competition, and the 2024 Hydrogen Energy and Fuel Cell Technology Forum.

       1.National Student Cup Hydrogen Energy Vehicle Competition (September 14, 2024):

       Hosted by NCUT's Department of Refrigeration, Air Conditioning, and Energy, this competition brought together six teams nationwide, including NCUT’s own CHIN-YI Hydrogen Wing 2 and H2O Racing Team. Participants competed in various categories such as dynamic track racing, vehicle design, and system integration. NCUT’s H2O Racing Team and Hydrogen Wing 2 won multiple awards, highlighting the university's advancing hydrogen vehicle technology and talent development.

       2.2024 Hydrogen Energy and Fuel Cell Technology Forum (September 20, 2024):

       Held at NCUT, the forum featured industry leaders such as Delta Electronics, Hephas Energy Corporation, and Linde LienHwa Group, who shared insights on hydrogen energy's role in achieving net-zero carbon emissions and its industrial applications. The forum addressed topics including hydrogen power generation, fuel cell technologies, and hydrogen energy’s future in transportation, drawing considerable attention and praise.

       3.19th National Hydrogen Energy and Fuel Cell Academic Symposium (September 21, 2024):

       This event, also at NCUT, gathered domestic and international experts, including Prof. Jon Clipsham (University of Strathclyde, U.K.) and Dr. Lina Troskialina (POLITEKNIK NEGERI BANDUNG, Indonesia). Topics covered ranged from hydrogen production technologies and fuel cell development to system integration. The symposium facilitated international knowledge exchange and showcased Taiwan's advances in hydrogen energy research and its academic influence globally.

       NCUT’s Role in Hydrogen Energy Development

       NCUT, a leader in hydrogen energy and fuel cell research, collaborates with academia, government, and industry to advance Taiwan’s sustainability goals. These events further demonstrate the university’s commitment to talent cultivation, technological innovation, and international cooperation in the clean energy sector.

       Through the symposium and competitions, NCUT fosters the next generation of researchers and engineers while contributing to Taiwan’s leadership in the hydrogen economy, net-zero transformation, and sustainable environmental development.
