Additionally, this effort aims to facilitate the development of GH2 National Standards and define the role of the Namibia Standards Institution (NSI) within the GH2 Value Chain. This requires a comprehensive understanding of the industry and the regulatory landscape in Namibia.

The approach

The approach proposed for this project involves desktop research, interviews, and analysis by experts on the team. The team will develop a technical-methodological concept and strategy to execute the study in two parts. The project will involve summarizing a scoping study on existing international and Namibian norms and standards in the GH2/power-to-X industry, using existing studies. This will be followed by developing a comprehensive study on the identified norms and standards.
