World’s Largest Hydrogen Expo, WHE 2025, Opens Pre-Registration; Diverse Side Events to Cover All Hydrogen Sectors

The Organizing Committee of the World Hydrogen Expo (WHE) 2025, co-chaired by Nam-hoon Kang, Chairman of the Korea Automobile Manufacturers Association, and Kim Jae-hong, Chairman of the Korea Hydrogen Alliance, has officially opened pre-registration for the upcoming global hydrogen industry showcase. WHE 2025 will take place from 4–7 December 2025 at KINTEX Exhibition Center 2 in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province.

Pre-registration is available via the official event website and mobile app until 6:00 PM on 3 December. The standard admission “Business Pass” is priced at 15,000 KRW, but attendees who register during the early-bird period—from 1 November to 3 December—can secure tickets at a discounted rate of 10,000 KRW. Business Pass holders will have unlimited access to the exhibition throughout its duration. General registration and on-site ticketing will be available thereafter. Special admission benefits include a 5,000 KRW entry fee for groups of ten or more, university students, persons with disabilities, national merit awardees, and seniors aged 65 or above. Visitors aged 18 or younger may enter free of charge.

Recognized as the largest and most influential hydrogen industry event in Korea and the wider Asia-Pacific region, WHE 2025 will be held alongside the prestigious Hydrogen Council General Assembly in Seoul. Senior executives from leading global hydrogen companies—including Hyundai Motor Group, Air Liquide, and Linde—as well as ministers, vice-ministers, CEOs, and international organization representatives, will convene to discuss global hydrogen economy transition pathways.

A comprehensive program spanning policy, technology, and business will run throughout the event. Key highlights include the H2 Business Partnership Fair (4–5 December), facilitating technology briefings and one-on-one meetings with international buyers; the H2 Innovation Award ceremony (4 December), recognizing breakthrough achievements across hydrogen industry segments; and the GHIAA General Assembly (5 December), focused on advancing cross-border collaboration and joint initiatives.

Engagement programs for the general public will also feature prominently. A weekend Talk Concert on 6–7 December will bring hydrogen experts and influencers together to communicate the industry’s value and future vision in an accessible format.

WHE 2025 aims to strengthen global cooperation, promote Korea’s leadership in hydrogen policy and industry, and enhance public understanding of the fast-growing hydrogen ecosystem. For further details, visitors may refer to the official WHE 2025 website www.world-hydrogen-expo.com
