ICHS goes to Scotland.

In September 2021 the hydrogen safety community is invited to Edinburgh to present the state-of-the-art, new developments, regulatory and normative aspects and practical implications with regard to hydrogen safety. Edinburgh and Scotland provide an absolutely committed background for this important milestone in the further rolling out of the new carbon-free energy technologies.

More details will come soon on this website.

IPHE RCS Working Group and HySafe signed Memorandum of Understanding

The IPHE RCS Working Group and HySafe intend to collaborate on hydrogen safety, regulations codes and standards and awareness via common workshops, information exchange and further common actions like benchmarks and projects coordination. To this end a Memorandum of Understanding has been signed.

The first successful measure under this agreement was the common organisation of a workshop dedicated to the quite sensitive issue of “Tunnel Safety of Hydrogen Vehicles and Transport”. The workshop was held in the morning of September 18 in Buxtom, UK in advance to the LH2 workshop the PRESLHY project (www.preslhy.eu).

The related presentations will be published soon.

HIAD 2.0 – free access to the renewed hydrogen incident and accident database

With more than 700 hydrogen events –  accidents, incidents and near misses –  collected in a database, HIAD was one of the main results of the NoE HySafe (2004-2009) and still represents one of the largest collections for hydrogen specific data.

With support of the FCH 2 JU and the Clean Hydrogen JU JRC has regularly maintained, populated and upgraded the database.

The hydrogen incidents database HIAD is now available as an EXCEL file. Version HIAD 2.1 can be downloaded from https://minerva.jrc.ec.europa.eu/en/shorturl/capri/hiadpt . There you can also access an interactive tool providing data visualisation and user-customised analytical functions (still in a beta version). A feedback would be highly appreciated, to be sent to the two address below.

For all questions related to HIAD, as well as for providing new entries, please contact JRC-PTT-H2SAFETY@ec.europa.eu and Pietro.MORETTO@ec.europa.eu

Analyses and further details can be found in  these publications: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0360319922012976 and https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0098135423000686
