International Conference on Solid State Hydrogen Storage
1-31-2005 to 2-1-2005 @ Hyderabad, India
Organized by: International Advanced Research Centre for Powder Metallurgy and New Materials (ARCI)
There has been an unprecedented expansion in energy usage around the world. It has become imperative that we develop hydrogen based energy systems in the coming years. This will call for storage and delivery of hydrogen as a major facet. Therefore, at the present juncture it is essential that the scientific community working on hydrogen storage materials get together to find synergy in interaction. In this effort, we are now organizing a conference in India that would focus on recent advances in various aspects of hydrogen storage materials.

WestStart Clean Heavy-Duty Vehicle Conference
2-22-2005 to 2-24-2005 @ La Quinta, CA, USA
Organized by: WestStart
In the past decade, the heavy-duty vehicle industry and fuel providers in the United States, as well as the rest of the world, have struggled with oil price volatility brought on by higher demand, global insecurity, and dwindling supplies of “cheap?oil. At the same time, government and environmental pressure has further increased to produce cleaner products that both reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency, further stressing demands placed on the industry. But what are the multiple pathways to achieving this twin goal. What are the potential solutions to move us away from the existing “transportation as usual?attitude and into a cleaner, more efficient and secure energy paradigm? This is what Clean Heavy Duty Vehicle 2005: Making the Connection: Emissions, Efficiency and Energy Security seeks to address in two days of insightful sessions.
