PATH International Codes and Standards Workshop - Agenda and Registration Now Available!
Is mass commercialization of hydrogen a high priority in your country? Are safety and regulatory issues barriers preventing mass commercialization from happening? Is the public's perception of hydrogen that it is an unsafe energy carrier?
Come to an important International Hydrogen Safety Codes and Standards Workshop and learn the truth about hydrogen technology as it pertains to safety and compliance with regulatory codes and standards! The Workshop is being hosted by the Partnership for Advancing the Transition to Hydrogen (PATH), www.HPATH.org, and will be held in conjunction with the World Hydrogen Technologies Convention in New Delhi, India on Saturday, 29 August 2009 from 9:00 am - 1:30 pm. It is being sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy.
