LH2CRAFT stakeholder engagement is of paramount importance for the whole project impact and expected outcomes. The full assembly of the external advisory board (EAB) is expected to be completed in the following year. The efforts and objectives to form the EAB have been focused mainly on stakeholders from shipbuilding and retrofitting industries across Europe, ship owners, new and existing supply chain partners, classification societies, industry associations and relevant industry clusters. EAB formation is under finalization, with three (3) members, Air Liquide, Ariane Group and University of Trieste, have already participated and contributed in the HAZID workshop held in Trieste in June ’24. Additional members will be added in the upcoming months, some of them being already contacted, which are expected to provide their valuable expertise in the upcoming risk assessment workshops anticipated within 2025 as well as other actions of the project that will be soon identified.
