WEDNESDAY, JULY 21 AT 10:00AM (EASTERN). Join our Saferty and Education Program Manager; Jennifer Hamilton during a one-hour session on, "hydrogen safety codes and standads on a global scale." 

As the emerging hydrogen transportation and stationary power markets grow, so have codes and standards which promote safety. Recently, there have been efforts to harmonize these documents to accommodate a global market. Attend this sponsored webinar to better understand today’s model codes and major standards, where harmonization is taking place and its potential implications and how your new applications have been—or will be—affected.

In one hour, you’ll hear from those directly involved in the development of codes and standards as well as those doing the research that feeds into the proposed changes to existing documents.  You’ll gain a clear idea of what you can do now in response, where to put your resources and how to plan for future energy storage and fueling projects, equipment and design. You’ll explore where the needs are for new applications and what activities are happening to fill in the gaps. In addition, you’ll discover new areas of collaboration with other industry stakeholders.

You’ll learn how to: 

  • Understand at a high level the codes and standards landscape for hydrogen and fuel cells application
  • Recognize and apply the appropriate documents to your area
  • Analyze and make sense of necessary additions or changes
  • Identify the correct groups to join for document revision or development
