--- title: A Global Mapping of Best Practice Design Standards for Hydrogen Project Developers date: 2024-07-19T14:51:00+01:00 author: Ellie Wilson canonical_url: "https://kent.nzi.me/news-insights/a-global-mapping-of-best-practice-design-standards-for-hydrogen-project-developers" section: Blog --- 19 Jul 2024 Insights & Opinions, Energy Transition # A Global Mapping of Best Practice Design Standards for Hydrogen Project Developers ![H2 Paper Process Safety team Web Banner]() In a world striving for cleaner energy sources, the hydrogen sector stands at a crucial juncture. Our Technical Safety team has developed a paper where they meticulously examine the international and national standards necessary for producing, storing, transporting, and distributing hydrogen safely and efficiently. The paper also highlights the gaps and differences in these standards, providing valuable insights for developers and a supporting tool to help navigate the breadth of standards. The study includes practical tips to close gaps in global standards, helping to enhance the design and operation of hydrogen projects. It draws lessons from international projects across the Asia Pacific, Europe, and North America, giving a well-rounded view of current challenges and advancements in the hydrogen sector. This comprehensive approach provides a well-rounded view of current challenges and advancements in the hydrogen sector, making it an essential resource for developers worldwide.
