Maritime Hybrid, Electric & Hydrogen Fuel Cells Conference & Exhibition 2026

The maritime industry is moving beyond asking whether vessels can be electrified. The question now is whether these technologies can deliver in real-world operations and make commercial sense.

That question will take centre stage at the 7th annual Maritime Hybrid, Electric & Hydrogen Fuel Cells Conference & Exhibition, which returns to Bergen, Norway, from 21–23 October 2026, bringing together industry leaders and technical experts to examine the real-world application of hybrid, electric and hydrogen technologies.

The focus is not simply on what the technology promises, but on what has worked, the challenges encountered and the lessons that can be applied to future projects.

The breadth of vessel types and applications will allow delegates to compare different approaches to electrification and alternative fuels across the maritime sector, from short-sea and passenger operations to offshore vessels, workboats and larger commercial ships.

Maritime CleanTech and partners will participate alongside other experts from across the value-chain, exchanging insights and exploring the industry's next steps towards deploying hybrid and electric solutions in the fleet. Øystein Huglen, Head of Technology & Innovation, and Tore Boge, Head of EU Projects, will speak as part of the conference programme.
