The effect of Cu content on hydrogen reduction behavior of ball-milled $WO_3$-CuO nanocomposite powders was investigated. Hydrogen reduction behavior and reduction percent(${alpha}$) of nanopowders were characterized by thermogravimetry (TG) and hygrometry measurements. Activation energy for hydrogen reduction of $WO_3$ nanopowders with different Cu content was calculated at each heating rate and reduction percent(${alpha}$). The activation energy for reduction of $WO_3$ obtained in this study existed in the ranging from 129 to 139 kJ/mol, which was in accordance with the activation energy for $WO_3$ powder reduction of conventional micron-sized.
