About this Event
Industry sectors are looking at plans to achieve net zero through improved energy efficiency and alternative energy sources. Hydrogen is likely to play a role in the fuel switch, from traditional fossil fuels to hydrogen as an energy source. This technical briefing will delve into the engineering design considerations and material compatibility for hydrogen applications in new or existing industrial establishments.
This program is designed to equip engineers with the technical understanding and practical insight needed to make informed decisions about safely designing and assessing systems for hydrogen service.
