The four courses offered in 2011 cover various subjects and should apply to participants requiring basic introduction to these technologies (the ‘Primer’), to those seeking first insights into low or high temperature fuel cells (the introductory courses to LT-FC and HT-FC), and finally those looking for more advanced training on SOFC design and modelling.
Within the courses, separate introductory sessions will allow for catching up on basic topics of electrochemistry. Therefore the courses are suitable for students of graduate (Bachelor) and PhD level. It is also helpful for young professionals, technicians and more experienced researchers wishing to review the technologies in question and expand their knowledge, maybe to suit a newly acquired position. The School aims at providing a comprehensive introduction from fundamentals to the choice and design of components up to considerations of market introduction, economics and applications.
The school draws on the knowledge and expertise of a group of teachers currently working at the leading edge of fuel cell and hydrogen research and development in Europe from universities, national research centres and industry.
Topics:
- A Primer to Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology
- An Introduction to Low Temperature Fuel Cell Technology
- An Introduction to SOFC Technology
- SOFC Design and Modelling
Informal networking is an important element of science and work in general - also of this school, encouraging this becomes possible with the week long format. Students will be given a mini-project to work on in small teams and also be asked to give a short introduction to themselves and the work they are doing (or expect to be doing).
The schedule takes in ca. six hours of formal teaching per day. An optional exam will be available for students who are required to obtain ECTS points relevant to their PhD studies. The school will be validated and academic points awarded by the University of Genoa.

Location:
Viterbo is an ancient city in the Lazio region of central Italy. It is approximately 80 kilometers north of Rome on the Via Cassia, and it is surrounded by the Monti Cimini and Monti Volsini.
The hotel hosting the school is modern, has an outdoor pool with water slide, a grass football field, and further outdoor activities. Rooms are of a good standard and offer all the facilities you would expect including air-conditioning. More details at http://www.balletti.it.
As we meet around the end of the main European holiday season, there will very probably be suitable low cost charter flights to Rome airport http://www.adr.it available from a wide range of major and regional European airports.
There will be shuttle transfer coaches for all arrivals and departures from the airport of Rome (Fiumicino Aeroporto) to Balletti Park Hotel and vice versa approx every 3-4 hours. The transfer time by coach is around 1¼ hour, depending on the traffic.
NOTE: We need to receive your arrival and departure transfer details (flight number / arrival and departure time) in order to arrange the transfers until latest 30.06.2011!
In case you arrive or depart at other dates than in the programme, you will have to arrange your transfer on your own.
