?? Exciting News from Europe: Building a Sustainable Hydrogen Future! ?? In her recent article, Valerie Bouillon-Delporte, Directrice exécutive du Clean Hydrogen Partnership, highlights Europe’s bold steps to establish a sustainable and competitive hydrogen ecosystem. While some media outlets question the sector’s pace, Europe is making significant strides toward decarbonization and energy independence. ?? Supported by ambitious public policies and a world-class research network, Europe is creating a hydrogen value chain that will transform the energy landscape. The Clean Hydrogen Partnership has already invested in over 373 projects, accelerating the development of clean hydrogen technologies across the continent. ?? Major initiatives, like "Hydrogen Valleys," are fostering industrial collaboration and testing new technologies in real-world environments, while targeted training programs are building the skilled workforce needed for a growing hydrogen economy. These actions are creating jobs, boosting innovation, and positioning Europe as a leader in the global clean energy transition. ?? As momentum builds, the focus remains on collaboration, safety, technological innovation, and ongoing investment to making Europe a hydrogen powerhouse. ????

As the hydrogen industry rapidly expands, it must uphold the highest safety standards to ensure its sustainability and growth. David Moore, AcuTech’s President & CEO and Chairman of the Managing Board of the Center for Hydrogen Safety will be presenting “Process Safety Management for the Hydrogen Industry” at the upcoming 8th Global Summit on Process Safety (GSPS) in Mumbai. On November 27 at 2:10pm IST, David will explore how the expanding hydrogen industry can benefit from robust Process Safety Management (PSM) systems to manage risks and enhance safety. PSM has been the global benchmark for managing hazardous chemical operations for over 30 years, and its principles are highly applicable to hydrogen production, usage, and related industries. This talk will dive into how PSM frameworks can help organizations achieve operational discipline, safety excellence, and regulatory compliance, even where formal regulations may not yet exist. If you're working in hydrogen production or use, this session will provide valuable insights into the integration of PSM into your safety strategy. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how modern process safety management can support the future of hydrogen! #GSPS2024 #ProcessSafety #ChemicalEngineering #SafetyFirst #CCPS #HydrogenSafety

Our very own Nick Barilo will be heading over to Mumbai for the 8th Center for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS) Global Summit on Process Safety to discuss the importance of hydrogen safety ??

As large electrolyzer projects become more common across the industry, they introduce unique hazards and risks not typically encountered in smaller-scale installations. Without proper safety measures, these projects can lead to equipment damage or even pose a threat to personnel. Unfortunately, many in the industry lack the necessary knowledge to apply appropriate safety practices to large-scale electrolyzer projects. Join us for a webinar on November 19 at 10:00 am ET, exploring hydrogen safety in these large-scale projects. Learn from Nick Barilo, Danielle Murphy, and Tim Gardner as they share insights from recent installations, focusing on critical differences in safety needs compared to smaller systems.
