NOVEMBER 7 - 10, 2021. Every three years the APTA EXPO brings attendees the latest and greatest the transportation industry has to offer. EXPO plays a pivotal role in connecting industry leaders, influencers and decision makers with world-class exhibitors. APTA EXPO exhibitors can leverage the opportunity to launch new products, increase brand awareness or simply attract more qualified business prospects.

APTA EXPO offers a wide range of exhibiting and sponsorship opportunities to separate your brand from the competition, showcase your innovations and engage with  public transportation decision makers.
APTA EXPO is free to attendees so if you are a servicer or supplier in the public transportation space this event is uniquely positioned to draw a large target demographic specifically looking for you have to offer. It doesn't hurt that Anaheim is a wonderful location located in the heart of a major public transportation hub, space is already filling up fast.
Take the opportunity to connect with what’s now and what’s next in public transportation by reserving a booth today!

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 27 AT 10:00AM PST. Join us January 27th for a complimentary #RenewableGas360 webinar in partnership with the Coalition for Renewable Natural Gas, “Renewable Gas Portfolio/Procurement Standards: State Leadership.” The webinar features Oregon State Senator Michael Dembrow, Colorado State Senator Chris Hansen, Oklahoma State Representative Mark McBride, Sam Wade of the Coalition for Renewable Natural Gas, and moderator Nina Oliveira of the Coalition for Renewable Natural Gas. Gain insight from state policymakers who are leading the efforts to pass state renewable gas procurement requirements.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 14 FROM 2:00PM - 3:00PM PST. Join us this week for the Kick Off of our Clean Air Conversations Series. This Thursday, we are talking about the impact of the many diesel generators that were bought in response to this year's devastating wild fires - presenting a whole new air quality problem of their own! The question is, what is the best path forward. We'll take a deep dive into microgrids, battery storage, fuel cells and more.

And stay tuned for our conversation in March, when we'll be talking about greening the supply chain to lower the collective emissions coming from the freight sector. Subsequent Clean Air Conversations will focus on underappreciated clean air technologies, best practices from the entertainment industry, a look ahead for California's air quality policies and more.

The event is free,
but tax deductible-donations are always appreciated.

Our panel of experts:

Bernadette Del Chiaro, CALSSA
Jamie Tuckey, MCE Energy
Brady Van Engelen, Bloom Energy

TUESDAY, JANUARY 12 FROM 10:00AM - 11:00AM PST. Renewable Hydrogen has the potential to be a vital and reliable solution for energy storage. Multiple renewable hydrogen projects are taking shape globally and these utility-led projects aim to provide reliable infrastructures, production facilities and more to highlight this zero-carbon fuel source.

Utilities play a major role in decarbonizing our transportation system. Renewable energy can be used in the electrification of battery electric vehicles (BEVs), but also to create clean fuels for fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). This webinar will explore and discuss benefits and challenges with respect to utilities' role in transportation electrification through the hydrogen and fuel cell transportation pathway.

In part two of the Forth and Renewable Hydrogen Alliance webinar series, we will cover renewable hydrogen projects taking off around the country. We will be joined by Catharine Reid, Marketing Manager, Ballard Power Systems Inc., Dave Warren, Principal, The Warren Group, LLC, and Michael McCann, P.E, Electric Generation Manager at Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB), to discuss their organizations' efforts to bring forth real-world renewable hydrogen applications.

Michael McCann will highlight the current EWEB renewable hydrogen production facility. Catharine Reid will speak on the important role for utilities and government agencies to play in supporting the scale-up of renewable hydrogen.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 15 AT 11:00AM EST. There is a vast and growing overproduction of electricity from solar and wind, but solar in particular, across the country, especially in the Southwest. Utilities are in a rush to find ways of saving this electricity and balancing their systems. Batteries and other storage systems are all on the table, along with what may have the most promise: green hydrogen. This is hydrogen made by electrolysis, using surplus electricity. The Europeans are ahead of us, but more and more U.S. utilities are looking at hydrogen as the companion to alternative fuels. The briefing will be moderated by syndicated columnist and broadcaster Llewellyn King. Sheila Hollis, USEA Acting Executive Director, will give opening remarks. General audience will be allowed to participate in questioning, but news outlets will be given preference. Following the event, a recording will be available on the USEA website.

TUESDAY, JANUARY 12 AT 3:00PM EST. Climate change is a threat to national security. President-elect Biden’s creation of the Special Presidential Envoy for Climate Change and Secretary John Kerry’s appointment to the office is a clear signal to the world that he recognizes climate change is a threat to national security and is serious about reigniting U.S. climate diplomacy to mitigate the threat.

The Biden administration’s international climate efforts will be driven by competition and cooperation. The U.S. must prepare for climate-driven geopolitical competition, but also work with international partners to dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Congressman Jim Langevin (D-RI), Norwegian Ambassador to the U.S. Ambassador Anniken Krutnes, Vice Admiral Lee Gunn, USN (Ret.), and ASP Director of Climate and Energy Security Alex Hackbarth will discuss what climate competition and cooperation may look like in the Biden administration in a panel moderated by ASP COO Andrew Holland.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 28 FROM 2:00PM - 3:00PM EST. Recent years have seen a reawakened interest in hydrogen fuel cell and water electrolyzer technology, with an important economical driver being the continuously lowered costs for intermittent renewal electricity generation from wind and solar. Modeling and simulation are important tools in the design and development of these electrochemical systems.
