HySafe NoE
San Francisco, September 12-14, 2011 – 4th ICHS
‹#›
The European Network of Excellence
for Hydrogen Safety (2004-2009)
Mission
Contributing to a safe transition towards a sustainable
development in Europe by facilitating the safe introduction of
hydrogen technologies and applications
OBJECTIVES
 Strengthen and focus, integrate fragmented research on
hydrogen safety → competitive scientific and industrial community
 Promoting public awareness and trust in hydrogen technologies
 Development of an excellent safety culture
IA-HySafe
San Francisco, September 12-14, 2011 – 4th ICHS
‹#›
• IA-Hysafe is the focal point for all hydrogen safety related issues


Founded as an international non-profit institution by the EC co-funded NoE
Partners from public research institutions, authorities, universities, standard
developing organizations and representatives from automotive as well as
energy companies
• MISSION & VISION


To facilitate the international coordination, development and dissemination of
hydrogen safety knowledge by being the focal point for hydrogen safety
research, education and training.
Hydrogen will be introduced as a safe and sustainable energy carrier.
WHY HIAD?
San Francisco, September 12-14, 2011 – 4th ICHS
‹#›
Hydrogen is already used in many applications



Different applications present different safety and regulatory
issues
Lack of comprehensive database on hydrogen incidents
and accidents
Needs for risk assessment methodologies tailored for
hydrogen applications
HIAD
Main challenges
HIAD MAIN FEATURES
San Francisco, September 12-14, 2011 – 4th ICHS
‹#›
HIAD aims to be an up-to-date repository of any
accidental event related to hydrogen technology

Developed and established within HySafe NoE

Designed to be a multi-task tool


Open platform for lessons learned and risk communication

Data source of useful information for risk assessment
Hosted at JRC’s ODIN portal https://odin.jrc.nl


Through ODIN, users can register and request access to HIAD
Fully operational with about 300 events recorded
(~250 quality assured)

• HIAD

3 modules
DEM – Data Entry Module
Users can register as “event provider” and insert/update events directly on the database
DRM – Data Retrieval Module
Allows the user to access hydrogen events recorded on HIAD
DAM – Data Analysis Module
Is a tool for conducting online simple analyses of the data recorded into the database

DATA ENTRY MODULE
San Francisco, September 12-14, 2011 – 4th ICHS
‹#›
OPTIONS OF PARAMETERS FOR DATA INPUTS
• 1.Pre-event conditions: Date and time of event, Weather conditions,
Geographical location, Type of H2 application, Operation phase or mode
• 2.Nature of event: Systems and components affected or involved, Chain
of events, Causal relations, Relevant safety systems and emergency
response, Release, fire and explosion specifications/details
• 3.Consequences of event: Fatalities and injuries, Property, environment
and economical loss and damage
• 4.Post-event actions: Clean-up and restoration, Legal/legislation
initiatives, Lessons learned, Investments made
• 5.References: Hyperlinks/references to files and documents, web-sites,
etc., Specification of attachments, e.g. maps, drawings, photos, etc.

DATA QUALITY ASSURANCE
San Francisco, September 12-14, 2011 – 4th ICHS
‹#›
 Each event undergoes the QA process.
 An event is published in HIAD only after QA process.

Data entry by the user
(available only to the
provider and QAEG)

Data verification by
the QA Expert Group

Data published on the
external database and
available to the public
INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATIONS
