Project Importance:
− Current knowledge gap on hydrogen safety environmental issues
• Building regulations, local regulations, public safety and permission of technical installations or earlier in project development
− Need to inform decision making institutions
− Need for more effective approval procedures
− Permission problems of technology in realised projects and the regulations, codes and standards (RCS) currently in effect.
EHA’s Role:
− Identification and engagement of regulatory and public safety officials
− Collection of current practices and training procedures in EU
− Definition of national authorization procedures for hydrogen installations in EU

Approach in performing the activities
Approach #1:
SHEL is based on the modification of a “off the shelf” electric FLT
Starting point is a previous national project (ECOLIFT Project)
Page 2122/04/12 Page 2122/04/12
Approach in performing the activitiesApproach #2: a “reference” vs. “practical” H2 supply is defined
Country Demo site Reference H2 scenario Practical H2 source Refilling method
TK Petkim Petrokyma chemical complex
industrial off-gas hydrogen
refuelling infrastructure will be based around an existing operation developed as part of the
UNIDO-ICHET ECOLIFT project
UK Newcastle International Airport waste to H2 tube trailer
