We are pleased to present the programme for the FVV Transfer + Networking Event | Autumn 2025, which will take place at the Maritim Hotel Würzburg from 24 to 26 September 2025.

During the conference, scientists and industry experts will learn about the latest Industrial Collective Research (IGF) interim and final reports and discuss FVV's future research needs.
As usual in autumn, the annual meetings of the General Assembly and the Scientific Advisory Committee will be held alongside the sessions of the Expert Groups on Energy Infrastructure & Storage, Sustainable Powertrain Systems, Engines, Electric Motors, Fuel Cells, Turbo Machines, Zero-impact Emissions, Materials Science & Recycling, and the Research Committee.

From the lecture programme:

• Fuel cell systems: 
  Material behaviour + service life, impedance analysis and diagnostic tools
• Energy conversion systems:
  Injection, combustion and exhaust gas behaviour of climate-neutral fuels
• Turbo machines:
  Development tools, simulation techniques and new design approaches

We look forward to your participation and to discussing the latest research ideas and results with you.

You can download the conference programme here.

Fuel Cell Research will take centre stage at the next FVV Transfer + Networking Event: current projects, scientific perspectives and technological developments will be presented and discussed. An appropriate keynote speech will explore the role of the fuel cell in future energy systems.

Further information can be found on our event page.

The Transfer Report | Spring 2025 summarises the highlights of the last conference:

• Keynote: Technical and political perspectives in carbon management
• Knowledge and technology transfer: Ways to reduce emissions and CO2 effectively and efficiently

The research directory lists all presentations alongside the conference proceedings and final reports. At the end of the publication, you will find QR codes for the research programme and dates, which are updated daily in THEMIS, as well as a project list (as of 01.05.2025).

The Aachen Colloquium Sustainable Mobility builds on the rich legacy of the Aachen Colloquium Automotive and Engine Technology, now with a sharp focus on sustainable and future-oriented mobility solutions.

In its 34th edition, this premier event will bring together internationally renowned experts and ethusiasts from research and industry to explore the latest innovations and shape the future of mobility. Held at the Eurogress Aachen, the Colloquium offers an exciting mix of expert lectures, engaging plenary speeches and interactive opportunities.

Beyond the lecture halls, leading companies will showcase their cutting-edge technologies in our technical exhibition, answer your questions, and inspire with their forward-thinking solutions. At the Driving Event, you’ll get to experience innovative mobility concepts firsthand.

The Aachen Colloquium is not just an event — it's a hub for global networking and exchange. Whether you join as a speaker, exhibitor or participant, we look forward to welcoming you to this vibrant gathering of ideas and inspiration.
See you in Aachen!
