CertifHy® Stakeholder Platform
What is the Stakeholder Platform?
The Stakeholder Platform is the highest decision-making body of CertifHy®. All CertifHy® Members are members of the Stakeholder Platform. The CertifHy Stakeholder Platform holds plenary sessions at least once per calendar year. Each member has voting rights.
Since 2014, CertifHy® and our diverse membership base, representative of the whole hydrogen and derivatives’ value chain, have and continue to come together to share knowledge and expertise related to the certification of renewable hydrogen, e-fuels, and derivatives.
From producers and processors to users and logistic operators, our members are paving the way for a low-carbon economy by participating in CertifHy® Stakeholder Platform activities. It has functioned as a forum for discussion and as a channel through which CertifHy® schemes have been shaped.
The Stakeholder Platform® application is open to all interested parties that represent organizations (or observers) involved in the hydrogen and derivatives value chain.
