The Strategic
Advisory Committee addresses the strategic
aspects of the NATURALHY-project and establishes
a platform for dissemination and for promoting
public understanding and acceptance of hydrogen.
It comprises of the leading members of the
NATURALHY-project and of selected
representatives and advisors of decision makers,
policy makers, environmentalists, regulators,
authorities and policy groups in the fields of
energy, environment, safety and legislation, at
national, European and international level. The
Committee is chaired by prof. Dr. C.
Beckervordersandforth, the former chairman of
CEN.
The Strategic Advisory
Committee discusses the strategic aspects of the
project and it is the ‘vehicle’ by which the
NATURALHY-members can inform the Committee of the vision
and results of the Project, so that these are taken into
account in their own processes. In addition, all members
of the Committee are informed about the current relevant
developments in politics, legislation, other projects
etc.
Participation to SAC is open, under certain conditions,
to new third parties who are interested. Organisations
interested in joining the Strategic Advisory Committee
should contact Mr. G.C.Tiekstra, Project Co-ordinator
(naturalhy@gasunie.nl).
