FAQ:
1. When will the membership scheme take effect?
The membership scheme will take effect from 1 Apr 2022.
2. Why is there a need to introduce membership fees?
The membership fees will go towards covering operational and administrative costs as we ramp up our activities for HFCAS. In the past, we have depended on the good will and pro-bono contributions from our EXCO members and donations from members, and it is timely that we consider setting up a secretariat to oversee the activities as we expand our role in Hydrogen and Fuel Cell development and applications.
