Hydrogen

We help our clients develop a safe and regulatory compliant hydrogen industry towards a carbon-free future
Gexcon Hydrogen

Hydrogen safety solutions applicable across all hydrogen supply chain

Hydrogen is increasingly seen as an important component of the clean-energy mix for a sustainable energy future. It has been identified as an alternative fuel that, if generated from clean energy or combined with CCUS (Carbon Capture Usage and Storage), could help bring the world towards a low-carbon society.
Due to its flammability, buoyancy, its ability to embrittle metals and other properties that require engineering control, designing a hydrogen system that ensures its safe use can be a challenging process. Awareness of hydrogen hazards is critical so that early precautions can be taken, such as designing a reliable hydrogen system.
Gexcon offers a complete solution to support our clients in understanding and mitigating the consequence of hydrogen hazards.

GEXCON Hydrogen

Consulting services for a safe and regulatory compliant hydrogen industry

Gexcon Consulting offers a full spectrum of safety studies for the hydrogen industry. Our consultants have experience working with facilities across all hydrogen supply chains and from all parts of the facility life cycle.

Our experience includes a wide range of industries and compressed as well as liquefied hydrogen. They are also expert users of the Gexcon software products and can give advice on what tools are appropriate for your safety study.

Key services include:

  • Early-stage risk analysis to identify potential hazards
  • Full facility risk analysis to map risk exposure on-site and off-site
  • Verification of safety studies to ensure compliance with relevant standards and regulations
  • Detailed modelling of hydrogen release and explosion consequences
  • Quantitative risk analysis for siting and licensing purposes
  • Verify structural response

Incident investigations

Understand the causes of incidents or near misses to prevent similar accidents from reoccurring in the future.

Gexcon can help with all aspects of incident investigations, from coordinating the investigation to conducting root cause analysis, providing recommendations, implementing strategies to prevent further incidents from occurring, and acting as expert witnesses during litigations.

GEXCON Hydrogen

Hydrogen safety course to upskill your team

Expand your team’s understanding of hydrogen hazards with our course, covering topics such as hydrogen explosion properties, relevant research, regulations, preventive and protective measures, dispersion, and explosion modelling, etc.

We can also develop specific topics based on your organisation’s needs.

Why choose Gexcon’s hydrogen safety solutions?

We are actively involved within the global research community on hydrogen safety, which has kept us updated on the topic’s latest findings. The research we are involved in emphasizes CFD modeling of gaseous and liquid releases, jet fires, and deflagrations. We have also been involved in developing methodologies for Quantitative Risk Analysis (QRA) for hydrogen applications.
