International Forum on Hydrogen Production Technologies HyPT-4 on October 21-24, 2025 in Adelaide, Australia

Following successful forums HyPT-1 (2019), HyPT-2 (2021) and HyPT (2023), HyPT-4 will continue to explore, in depth, a range of current and emerging zero carbon emission (CO2-free) hydrogen production technologies, with world-leaders from industry, research and government agencies, keen to accelerate opportunities for low-cost hydrogen production.

Each topic will be repeated twice (A & B) for different time zones with 90 min sessions with 3 x 20 min Keynote speakers followed by 30 minute discussions with 2 Panellists.The forum will present an in-depth overview of a range of current and emerging zero carbon emission (CO2-free) hydrogen production technologies and will explore through expert opinion and discussion, the different technologies, with emphasis on:

Appraisal of current technologies, projections and limitations, Challenges and limitations of emerging technologies, and barriers leading to cost reduction, Consideration of system integration, scale-up and effectiveness, as well as life-cycle analysis.

The HyPT-4 forum is organised by the Centre for Energy Technology at the University of Adelaide.

The forum will be divided into the following 7 themed sessions: Large-scale electrolysers - limitations and future prospects; Emerging electrolysis technology; Hydrogen from natural gas; Thermochemical processes; Hydrogen from bioresources and waste; Photo-electrochemical (PEC) and photocatalysis (PC); Natural Hydrogen

Each technical session will focus on a related class of technology with extensive discussion time being allocated to address specific questions.
