Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

This paper describes loss prevention issues in implementing hydrogen technologies specifically focusing on the generation of hydrogen using renewable energy technologies and culminating in hydrogen fueling stations for road vehicles and industrial trucks. Hydrogen has been used in industrial applications for many years. In the last ten years, there has been a significant interest in using hydrogen as a vehicle fuel primarily for fuel cell vehicles. The paper will address the following loss prevention associated with hydrogen fueling operations: - Hydrogen ignition properties - Hydrogen behavior in confined and semi-confined spaces - High pressure hydrogen storage - Hydrogen release detection The paper will address both outdoor fueling operations for road vehicles and indoor fueling operations for industrial trucks.
