Strong Belgian presence at European Hydrogen Week 2026 at Brussels Expo

The Belgian hydrogen sector was well represented at the exhibition of the European Hydrogen Week 2026 in Brussels, where the Belgian Hydrogen Council hosted 13 companies and organisations at the joint Belgian booth: Agfa, Ballast Nedam, Borit, CertifHy, Exion Hydrogen, Fluxys, Fujitsu, H2WIN, John Cockerill, Messer, Port of Antwerp-Bruges, UGent and Virya. Together, they showcased Belgian hydrogen expertise, innovative technologies and international ambitions under the umbrella of the Belgian Hydrogen Council. 

A highlight of the week was the traditional Belgian Beer Night on Tuesday, 27 October, which once again proved to be one of the fair's most popular networking events. Exhibitors particularly appreciated the seamless organisation, the strategically located Belgian booth and, above all, the many valuable contacts established throughout the event, although it was noticeable that there were fewer stands and fewer visitors on this year's edition compared to previous years. 

According Hydrogen Europe, the organizer of the European Hydrogen Week, 7500 people attended the event across the three days. The different panel sessions in the conference part of the event, focused on the important role that hydrogen can play in the changing geopolitical context, as was also put forward in this year’s conference title: ‘Scaling hydrogen, strengthening resilience’.  A clear call towards the European policy makers was launched, to continue pushing for regulatory certainty and build on the momentum that the implementation of REDIII has created in the countries that already adopted it.
