Ten years after the First Grove Fuel Cell Symposium, the sixth meeting in the series, entitled “The Competitive Option for Sustainable Energy Supply”, will be held in London on 13th to 16th September 1999 at the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre. Attention will be focused on the achievements throughout this period with papers on technical progress and advances towards commercialisation. The contribution of the fuel cell to sustainable energy supplies will be of particular interest.

Further topics will include marketing developments and the science and technology of fuel cells. It is hoped that there will be demonstrations of various small-scale fuel cell applications.

Invited authorities from all sectors of the fuel cell industry, academia and government will speak. There will also be a poster display for which contributions are requested.
