The National Hydrogen Association (NHA) Conference and Hydrogen Expo got underway in Sacramento March 30, 2008. The theme of the 2008 conference was ‘ramping up commercialization’. The hydrogen and fuel cell industry have talked about this for a while now, but it is finally happening – as evidenced by the products on display at the Hydrogen Expo, some of the deals made at the event and the projects described in the conference sessions. Most importantly, fuel cell products on display often now have prices on them and there is a move away from the bespoke units of the past towards limited (and even mass) manufacturing. There was a real buzz amongst the attendees at this year’s NHA that commercialization has begun, due in no small part to the hard work of NHA Members and staff.
