Mapping Priorities and Assessment 

Objectives

  • Monitor of research activities from the point of view of applications and integration of research efforts along the vertical tracks of the thematic structure of the network into practical applications
  • Identify areas for initiation of horizontal projects (internal and external)
  • Review and map priorities and prepare suggestions for future joint activities

Description of work

Risų will co-ordinate this activity.

The work is split into the following sub tasks:

Subtask 7.1. Review of data for SBEP.
Partners will review data proposed for SBEP. The proposals will be provided by WP8, WP9, WP10, WP11. The most relevant cases from the points of view of research and applications will be recommended.
Lead:
Risų. Partners: CEA, DNV, FZJ, FZK, Fh-ICT, INERIS, GexCon, HSE/HSL, NCSRD, TNO, UPM, UNIPI, UU, AL, BMW, VOLVO, NH,

Subtask 7.2. Review of proposals for tests and other activities.
Partners will review proposals for tests and other activities provided by research/methodological work packages (WP8, WP9, WP10, WP11, WP12). Other work packages (integration and spreading of excellence) will report their vision of future development. The review will address needs both for research (specific gaps of knowledge) and applications (open issues). A draft version of an updated DoW for the next period will be compiled and distributed to the members of the co-ordination committee. On a meeting (month 16) the update will be discussed and a consensus version will be provided. This will be basis for a final decision on the new JPA by the Governing Board (month 17). Subtask lead: Risų. Partners: CEA, DNV, FZJ, FZK, Fh-ICT, INERIS, GexCon, HSE/HSL, NCSRD, TNO, UPM, UNIPI, UU, AL, BMW, VOLVO, NH,

Sub-task 7.3. New initiatives.
Integration of the vertical activities into practical applications is the main focus of this sub-task. Assess the results of work packages (input by WP leaders will be requested) especially WP8 ? WP12 in respect of their principal methodological readiness and practical applicability.
The partners will consider open safety issues related to applications using HySafe SPR, and using input provided by the EC funded projects (STORHY, NATURALHY, HYWAYS), by the ?European Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology Platform? and by other international activities in the field. The open safety issues of highest priority will be identified. This will be used as a basis to initiate internal projects (see V4.2 Risk Assessment Studies of Hydrogen Applications), external projects with national or industrial funding and/or to suggest topics for EU funded projects specific to applications.   

Subtask lead on rotational basis by BMW, AL, NH, Volvo (starting with BMW).
Participants: CEA, DNV, FZJ, FZK, INASMET, INERIS, GexCon, HSE/HSL, NCSRD, TNO, UPM, UNIPI, UU
