But the energy
: The Canadian Hydrogen Association is a not-for-profit corporation
that promotes the production, transportation, storage and application of
hydrogen in its myriad applications and encourages the development of
industrial hydrogen and hydrogen energy systems and markets for new
energy service technologies to improve the environment.
