Following successful conferences in Yokohama in 2004 and Lyon in 2006, the 17th World Hydrogen Energy Conference (WHEC 2008) will be held in Brisbane, Australia between June 15th – 19th 2008 and will highlight the complexities of utilising hydrogen as an energy carrier.
The WHEC 2008 programme will cover a range of topics highlighting these complex challenges, including the methods of generating hydrogen, materials for hydrogen storage, infrastructure development and hydrogen utilisation technologies, particularly fuel cell systems.
The conference will also provide extensive networking opportunities to delegates and deliver the most relevant information on all matters concerning hydrogen and fuel cell technology. WHEC 2008 will cover a wide range of technical issues; from how hydrogen is safely produced, stored, transported and utilised to broader topics such as environment, education and regulatory developments.
The subject of hydrogen generation will include the conversion of fossil fuels to the use of renewable energy sources and nuclear power. Sessions on hydrogen storage will be devoted to the investigation of advanced materials such as metal hydrides, while sessions on infrastructure development will discuss the technical viability and economics of energy transport and refuelling stations.
