How Safe is Hydrogen Fuel&Hydrogen; Fuel Cell Technology?
For Safety and Code Officials
Like gasoline and natural gas, hydrogen is a fuel that must be handled appropriately. When guidelines are observed, it can be used as safely as the other common fuels we use today.
The Basics: DOE Hydrogen Safety Fact Sheet
This hydrogen safety fact sheet provides basic facts about hydrogen properties and behavior to help users understand issues related to hydrogen safety. Download Adobe Reader.

DOE's Introduction to Hydrogen Safety for First Responders
This Web-based course covers hydrogen properties, explains how to identify and recognize hydrogen equipment, and describes initial protective actions for first responders, including fire, law enforcement, and emergency medical personnel. Modules focus on hydrogen basics, transport and storage, vehicles, dispensing, stationary facilities, codes and standards, and emergency response. The course also includes a quiz and a library with additional resources and links to related information.
California Fuel Cell Partnership (CAFCP) Resources for First Responders
The CAFCP offers educational seminars (primarily in California) and other resources, including a response scenarios video, for firefighters, paramedics, EMTs, and law enforcement. For contact information and to learn more, visit the CAFCP Web site.
Permitting Hydrogen Facilities Web site
A Permitting Hydrogen Facilities Web site identifies model codes and standards to help local permitting officials deal with proposals for hydrogen fueling stations, fuel cell use for telecommunications facilities, and other hydrogen projects.
Hydrogen Safety Bibliographic Database
DOE's Hydrogen Safety Bibliographic Database provides references to reports, articles, books, and other resources for information on hydrogen safety as it relates to production, storage, distribution, and use.
Hydrogen Safety Report
Produced by the National Hydrogen Association and funded by DOE, the Hydrogen Safety Report is a monthly electronic newsletter dedicated to hydrogen safety, codes, and standards issues.
Hydrogen Incident Reporting Database
The Hydrogen Incident Reporting Database provides lessons learned and other relevant information gained from actual experiences using and working with hydrogen. The database contains records of events involving hydrogen or hydrogen-related technologies.
U.S. Statutes and Regulations
Led by the U.S. Department of Transportation, the Federal Interagency Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technical Task Force developed an interactive map tool to illustrate the authorities, U.S. statutes, and regulations that may be applicable to hydrogen.
U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Hydrogen Portal
DOT has successfully regulated hydrogen transport for decades. Its Hydrogen Portal offers DOT resources as well as information about hydrogen-related projects and other activities.
Regulators' Guide to Permitting Hydrogen Technologies
DOE's Regulators' Guide to Permitting Hydrogen Technologies provides information about hydrogen's use as a fuel, the regulatory process, and relevant codes and standards for stationary fuel cell technologies for commercial buildings and hydrogen motor fuel dispensing facilities.
Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Codes and Standards Matrix
The Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Codes and Standards Matrix is a directory of worldwide hydrogen- and fuel cell-related codes and standards.
