a series of
workshops each of which will be targeted at
user groups and stakeholders active in the
field in locations across Europe;

activities;
-
regular
interfaces with government bodies, safety
authorities, standards bodies, consumer
organisations, environmentalists,
decision-makers at both national and
European levels.
Current Status
Task 7.1 Preparation of a detailed
dissemination plan
The task has
been completed.
Task 7.2 Preparation and distribution of
dissemination material
Six-monthly editions of the Naturalhy Project
Newsletters are prepared and are available both
in hard copy and in electronic (pdf) version.
The newsletters are distributed via e-mail, at
events and workshops and via the Naturalhy
project web site. The 6th edition of the
Newsletter was published in November 2007. The
electronic versions of the Newsletters are
available at
http://www.naturalhy.net/newsletters.htm.
Task 7.3 Development and maintenance of the
Project website
The website was set up and made operational
during the first months of the project. The
address of the web site is
http://www.naturalhy.net
The project web
site comprises a public area, the Strategic
Advisory Committee (SAC) members’ area and the
project partners’ area which are regularly
updated. The web traffic observed for the
Naturalhy site currently exceeds 1000 visits per
month.
Task 7.4 Workshops and supporting activities
A series of four workshops is planned in the
project work programme, beginning in the second
year of the project.
The 1st Naturalhy Workshop, was held within the
European Hydrogen Energy Conference 2005 (EHEC
2005), in Zaragoza, Spain, on November 22, 2005.
The second Naturalhy Workshop was held on May
30, 2007, within the Conference “Transmission of
CO2, H2, and biogas: exploring new uses for
natural gas pipelines”, Amsterdam, The
Netherlands.
Task 7.5 European Standards review
An interim inventory of existing standards has
been reported by NEN as deliverable D31 "Report
on standards review". NEN also issued a
questionnaire that was distributed together with
the standards inventory amongst the Naturalhy
partners, the CEN and ISO bodies, to assess the
need for additional standards.
The outcome of this questionnaire will be used
to update the standards inventory and to prepare
the deliverable D28 "A proposal for a revised
standard".
Task 7.6 Work Package Co-ordination
WP co-ordination is carried out by the WP7
Leader with support from all members of the PEC.
