About CHS

Founded in 2019 the Center for Hydrogen Safety exists to provide guidance, education and collaborative forums to realize the successful and transformative benefits of hydrogen. 

Vision

A world committed to hydrogen safety.

Our vision is to inspire a global commitment to hydrogen safety. We seek to foster a culture of safety and responsibility across all hydrogen applications, allowing the potential of hydrogen to be fully realized without compromising safety.

Mission

Be the Premier Resource for Applied Hydrogen Safety.

We offer webinars, eLearning, best practices, and conferences in order to help educate workers in the safe handling of hydrogen and the safe design and use of hydrogen systems.

We provide freely available hydrogen safety information, free webinars, and low cost eLearning courses in order to help inform public officials, government entities, and workers about industry best practices and lessons learned.

Through the Hydrogen Safety Panel (HSP) we offer objective, non-regulatory, and neutral advice to companies designing, building, operating and maintaining hydrogen systems in order to help them avoid incidents, reduce costs, establish public and stakeholder confidence, and provide a balanced solution to questions and problems.

We train first-responders to be safe while responding to incidents involving hydrogen by providing freely available hydrogen safety information, offering in person training, use of hydrogen props, free first-responder focused eLearning courses, and train the trainer content. We train researchers in hydrogen lab safety by offering a free lab focused eLearning course, low-cost eLearning content, and freely available hydrogen safety information.

Foster a Vibrant Community Committed to Hydrogen Safety.

We create opportunity for the industry to connect and share knowledge on hydrogen safety topics through working groups, webinars, member meetings, conferences, and workshops.
