Introducing HSE’s LH2 testing facility

The ELVHYS project is just one of a number of current research projects making use of HSE's liquid hydrogen testing facility.

This 2.5 tonne cryogenic road tanker stores liquid hydrogen at -253 degrees C and right now is a unique and strategically important facility in the UK for research into this current topic.

Stay tuned for exciting news about a 2024 hydrogen event from HSE

Following the success of our hydrogen safety conference back in March, HSE Training and Events is planning a follow-on ‘deep dive’ event for 2024, as part of the ‘Safe Net Zero’ series.

‘Safety considerations for materials used in hydrogen environments’ will take place in February 2024 and focuses on a key theme that many in industry, academia, research and development are keen to explore: the selection, technical performance and safety of materials used in hydrogen environments.
