Ammonia - The Key to a Hydrogen Economy

Thursday & Friday, October 13 & 14, 2005 Argonne National Laboratory

9700 South Cass Avenue, Argonne, IL 60439

  • Elimination of dependence on imported petroleum and imported ammonia.

  • Creation of numerous U.S. jobs.

  • Decreased environmental pollution.

  • Cost-effective, high-performance hydrogen delivery and storage systems.

  • A seamless bridge to a future hydrogen economy based on renewable energy.

U.S. ammonia should be considered as a possible solution to the problems associated with moving toward a hydrogen economy. The Iowa Energy Center invites you to join industry leaders in the second annual review and discussion about the possibilities of using ammonia as a vehicle to deliver hydrogen to market efficiently, cost effectively and with low environmental impact using an extensive, low-cost, proven and expandable ammonia delivery infrastructure.
