Held in Japan
by Karen Hall
Vice President, Technical Operations of the National Hydrogen
Association
Both ISO/TC-197 and IEC/TC-105 are tentatively planning working
group and plenary meetings in Japan between June 21 – July
2, 2004, in conjunction with the 15th World Hydrogen Energy
Conference (WHEC).
WHEC will be held June 27 – July 2, 2004 at the Pacifico
Yokohama conference center in Yokohama, Japan, approximately
30 minutes by train from Tokyo. The conference website is www.whec15.jp.
ISO/TC-197 will hold its Plenary on Friday July 2, 2004 in Yokohama.
The working group meetings have not yet been determined, but
are likely to be held between June 21 – June 25.
IEC/TC-105 has issued an administrative circular indicating
that the Japanese National Committee is inviting Technical Committee
No. 105: Fuel Cell Technologies to have their 2004 Plenary &
WG meetings in Tokyo from June 21 - July 2, 2004. At this time
the Plenary meeting is tentatively being scheduled for June
24-25. Presently the technical committee is in the process of
determining what dates the various working groups will be meeting
on in conjunction with the Plenary meeting. Note that this is
a pre-announcement and that IEC/TC-105 is waiting to receive
the provisional program, general information, as well as the
registration and accommodation forms concerning these meetings
before a formal announcement can be made.
The NHA will post dates in our calendar
of events once the details are available.
