Národná Vodíková Asociácia Slovenska
NVAS je záujmové združenie právnických osôb založené v roku 2019. Činnosť klastra nadväzuje na aktivity Národnej Vodíkovej Asociácie Slovenska.
NVAS je členom European Cluster Collaboration Platform (ECCP). ECCP vzniklo z iniciatívy DG Grow Európskej komisie ako platforma pre prepájanie a výmenu informácií medzi klastrami v rámci EÚ ako vo svete. Členstvom v ECCP NVAS získava možnosť nadviazania kontaktov, výmenu informácii s viac ako 1000 inovatívnymi klastrami v Európe, ako aj vo svete. Zároveň sa dostávame k databáze a informáciam o projektoch riešených v rámci klastrov z rôznych programov EÚ. NVAS je zároveň a certified cluster with a bronze certificate of excellence involved in the European organization of clusters.
The main task of the cluster is to create a platform for connecting individual participants (stakeholders) dealing with hydrogen technologies in specific projects related to the production, distribution, storage and use of hydrogen. The projects included in the cluster organisation will include partners from industry, research and development, municipalities and regional associations, state and public administrations, as well as educational institutions and other professional and interest associations, given the cross-industry nature of hydrogen.
Všetci riadni členovia NVAS sa automaticky stávajú aj členmi tohto klastra a majú možnosť participovať na projektoch zaradených do Klastrovej organizácie. Pre jednotlivé projekty budú participujúci aj špecifickí členovia, ktorí sa budú zúčastňovať spoločných aktivít pre konkrétny projekt. Výsledkom aktivít NVAS budú konkrétne projektové zámery, dokumenty, publikácie, technické a finančné odporúčania a návrhy týkajúce sa výskumu a vývoja a implementácie vodíka a vodíkových technológií.
