Objectives

• To inform stakeholders about ongoing EU (and other international activities) in the area of Regulations, Codes and Standards for H2/Fuel Cell Technologies
• To assimilate progress with respect to preliminary ‘Gap Analysis’ (and ‘Action Plan’) for Regulations, Codes and Standards as developed in the framework of the Technology Platform Initiative Group (IG-RCS)
• To gather recommendations in view of identifying topics for future pre-normative RTD
