Environmental guidelines for permitting hydrogen plants producing less than 2 tonnes per year

Because of the growth in the availability and use of liquid hydrogen in Europe, the European Industrial Gases Association (EIGA) has recognised the need for a publication addressing safety in storage, handling and distribution of liquid hydrogen. This EIGA publication is intended as guidance for companies directly associated with the installation of liquid hydrogen storage at the user's premises and the distribution of liquid hydrogen by road, rail and sea transport. Because of the properties of liquid hydrogen, specific precautions shall be taken and these are described in this publication.
