21st International Metrology Congress

Only four weeks until the International Metrology Congress opens its doors in Lyon, France.

From 7 to 10 March 2023 leading metrology experts will hold over 200 presentations and discuss research and innovation challenges in 6 round table sessions.

A number of EMPIR joint research projects provided input to the event and for the first time, visitors can meet 5 of EURAMET’s European Metrology Networks at their booth in the Metrology Village.

Metrology for hydrogen vehicles 2

The EU has targeted net-zero emissions from transport by 2050 which will require rapid take-up of cleaner, non-fossil fuels such as hydrogen. Electric vehicles using hydrogen are filled at hydrogen refuelling stations (HRS) but no standardised measurement methods exist to en...

Flow metering of renewable gases (biogas, biomethane, hydrogen, syngas and mixtures with natural gas)

Renewable gases such as biogas and hydrogen are increasingly available within Europe's distribution networks, alongside natural gas. Operators and users of the grid expect the same measurement accuracy as with natural gas, for correctly billed commercial transactions. Commer...
