A Hydrogen Economy

  • Chapter
Comprehensive Treatise of Electrochemistry

Abstract

The history of the “hydrogen economy” may be broken down into three parts. Firstly, there is the history of the founding of the Hydrogen Energy Society which took place in Miami, Florida, in 1974 under the chairmanship of Nejat Veziroglu. Earlier, a Hindenberg society was founded by William Escher. The beginning of the official society in Miami in 1974 has been followed by several international meetings, each attended by about 1000 persons.
