This year, the National Hydrogen Association’s Annual Conference will feature more events related to hydrogen safety, codes and standards than ever before. Each day of the conference includes specific sessions on these topics as well as sessions on a large variety of other topics related to the hydrogen and fuel cell industry.

The 19th Annual Conference, Ramping Up Commercialization, will be held in Sacramento, CA, March 30- April 3, 2008. More than 1,500 business professionals and expo visitors are expected to attend what is the largest hydrogen conference in the U.S. and the longest running annual hydrogen conference in the world.

The following table is a list of conference sessions related to safety, codes and standards. These events are just a sample of the five full days of hydrogen activities associated with the 2008 Conference and Expo (please note: schedule and speakers are subject to change).
