In line with the Seveso Directive and its collaboration with partners in chemical accident risk management within the OECD, the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre’s Major Accident Hazards Bureau (MAHB) began exploring the potential industrial, safety, and health risks posed by the energy transition towards hydrogen. In this context, the JRC and OECD organised a series of three webinars focused on the different aspects of managing the risks associated with hydrogen fuel. Below you may access each webinar programme and available presentations.
Hydrogen Fuel Risks Webinar Series
Hydrogen is a widely available and highly versatile substance, already playing a crucial role in chemical manufacturing and oil refining. However, its flammable and explosive nature requires stringent controls to prevent serious accidents, especially when used in large quantities. The OECD and the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre organised a series of webinars to discuss the different aspects of managing the risks associated with hydrogen fuel.

The OECD work on chemical safety and biosafety deals with the safe use of chemicals, nanomaterials, pesticides, biocides, and products of modern biotechnology. It also addresses related areas of concern and interest, such as chemical accidents, Pollutant Release and Transfer Registers (PRTRs) and Best Available Techniques (BAT).Learn more
