Conference topics include: Proton conducting membranes ☺ Fuel cells catalysts and supports ☺ Electrodes and MEAs ☺ Lifetime and degradation ☺ Modelling/simulation ☺ Novel techniques for MEA characterisation ☺ Alkaline anion-exchange membrane fuel cells ☺ Inorganic proton conductors ☺ Direct fuel cells ☺ Stacks and stack components
 
This conference series is specifically devoted to the challenges in developing fuel cell materials and membrane electrode assemblies for the medium and high temperature range targeted for transport and stationary applications. The conference will be the opportunity for presentation of recent results, discussion and debate on the solutions sought internationally to the bottlenecks associated with operation at higher temperatures, with an international programme of invited lectures, oral and poster contributions, organised to promote a review of important issues related to materials development and durability for PEMFC systems.
 
The conference is the third in the series initiated by the CARISMA European Coordination Action on Intermediate and high temperature Membrane electrode Assemblies.
 
CARISMA 2012 will be held in the centre of Copenhagen at walking distance from the main railway station which is a 14 min train ride from Copenhagen International Airport (Kastrup). The conference is organized together with the Danish HotMEA Consortium.
 
We look forward to welcoming you in Copenhagen in September.
Jens Oluf Jensen and the organizers
