September 23 (Fri) - 24 (Sat), 2005
Co-organized by M. Watanabe, S. Gottesfeld, U. Stimming, K. Ota, H. Kim, and H. Nishide
The 4th International Fuel Cell Workshop (IFCW) 2005 was held at Kofu Fujiya Hotel in Yamanashi, Japan, on September 23-24, 2005.
The Workshop consisted of 14 invited lectures by forefront researchers from Japan, Europe and the United States and 57 contributed poster presentations. These papers focused on recent fundamental and applied technologies concerning PEFCs for motor vehicles, on-site cogeneration systems and portable equipments. Exhibitions such as test ride of six FCEVs and a bus, demonstration of PEFCs and DMFCs, and other related products are also included. We believe that the content of this Workshop contribute to R&D in this area.
The number of participants counted ca.250 except press crews. Many participants were from outside Japan (USA, UK, Denmark, France, Korea, Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, and Indonesia). During two days, we had intensive and fruitful discussion (about 10 min for each presentation).
Finally, on behalf
of the organizing committee, I would like to thank all the participants
for taking part in such a great meeting.
