The Spanish Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Technological Platform (PTE HPC) is an initiative developed by the Spanish Hydrogen Association, supported by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness and active since May 2005. The main goal of the PTE HPC is to promote and accelerate the development and use of hydrogen and fuel cell energy systems and components for transport and stationary and portable applications in Spain, considering all the R&D chain. More than 170 Spanish entities related to hydrogen and fuel cell technologies participate in this platform. These entities contribute their experience, knowledge and opinions to the elaboration of documents, making possible the establishment of the scientific, industrial and technological guidelines which should be adopted to promote the incorporation of the hydrogen and fuel cell technologies and hence giving energetic solutions and stimulating a new industrial and technological service sector. |

ETPIS addresses safety of industrial installations and production systems from various industry sectors. ETPIS deals with occupational health and safety of the workers in industry, environmental safety, and the prevention of major accidents with off-site consequences. ETPIS works on conventional risks, on emerging risks and on Safety technologies, products and services. Improvement of industrial safety is important not only in human terms, to reduce workers’ pain and suffering, death toll and environmental & societal impact in case of major accidents, but it is also a way of ensuring that enterprises are successful and sustainable in economic terms. ETPIS provides a significant contribution to the EU2020 Strategy, in particular to the sustainability and competitiveness targets, while implementing the ETPIS long term Vision adopted in 2005. This Vision is still up-to-date and very much aligned with the EU 2020 Strategy. |

The German Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association (DWV) is an advocacy group that since 1996 has encouraged the rapid and effective commercial introduction of hydrogen as an energy carrier and fuel-cell technology. The aim is to bring all aspects of a future supply infrastructure for hydrogen, its production and energy utilisation into discussion as well as taking an active part in developing the market. DWV identifies research and development problems in the field of safety or economy and cooperates with associations and institutions all over the world that work along similar lines. Within the German and European energy policy the DWV is promoting a suitable political framework that will enable hydrogen generated from renewable energy to make a significant contribution towards an economically successful energy transition. Our membership in total accounts for more than 1.5 million jobs in Germany. The DWV therefore represents a significant portion of the German economy. |

The European Hydrogen Association (EHA) is the point of reference for EU decision makers on national developments: in 2000 six national hydrogen organisations established to promote the use of hydrogen as an energy carrier in Europe; in 2016 the EHA is representing 20 national associations active in the promotion of hydrogen and fuel cells as integral part of Europe's transition to a low carbon energy and transport system. This unique representation enables the EHA to be invited to key EU Commission transport and energy policy working groups meetings (Cars 21, Future Transport Fuels Expert Group) to communicate local and national developments and report relevant EU policy to members. Over the years the EHA network of associations has become a dissemination instrument for FCH JU and other EU project results, allowing national and local stakeholders to gain insight in results, and impact of key developments to engage national actors. The EHA website consistently (www.h2euro.org) sees 80.000 unique visitors every year. |
