How to get involved?

Clear:
The Solar thermal industry needs more participation
of the industry in standardisation.
First access to standardisation activities:
The Solar Keymark Network
![Page 8: Webinar Solar Keymark & Certification issues for …solarheateurope.eu/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/SK_SKN_AB.pdfThe European Standards for Solar thermal products Webinar on Solar Keymark](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042301/5ecc8241c487e33d94099a98/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Solar Keymark Network

The Solar Keymark Network is a network of Solar thermal experts
- mandatory for all testing laboratories
- mandatory for all certification bodies
- open for industry (preference: 2 per country)
The Solar Keymark Network has many important tasks….
…
…
All testing laboratories and certification bodies have
the same understanding of the standards and procedures.
-> Sometimes new regulations and clarifications must be
developped which later find their way in the standards.
(example: How to certify PVT collectors?)
