The ISO Roundtable on global harmonization of regulations, codes and standards for gaseous fuels and vehicles in Geneva on January 10, 2007.  This event, which is organized by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), is also supported by the UN body (WP.29) which is responsible for international regulations for motor vehicles.

The results of the ISO Roundtable will be summarized in a Harmonization report which will form the basis of future work in this area including the next harmonization event eg. a 'Conference of Experts', planned for 2008 to prioritize the harmonization challenges. 
 
An important item on the agenda of the ISO Roundtable is a presentation of stakeholder perspectives and feed back which will indicate the direction that stakeholders will take regarding gaseous fuels technologies (natural gas and hydrogen) over the next 15-20 years as well as the challenges they face towards the market entry and commercialization of these new technologies. 
 
We are asking executive decision makers, to take ten minutes to fill in this stakeholder perspective questionnaire by following this link:  http://www.ccsglobalgroup.com/stakeholder_perspectives.html
 
We will send you an executive summary of the stakeholder perspective results.  Please submit your response on or before Friday, December 15, 2006.
