European Summer School on Hydrogen Safety

Objective

The aim of this project is the establishment of the first European training course on hydrogen safety, namely, the ¿European Summer School on Hydrogen Safety (HyCourse)¿. The University of Ulster (UU) is a partner in European Network of Excellence HySafe ( www.hysafe.org) leading the development of e-Academy of Hydrogen Safety. The draft for development of the International Curriculum on Hydrogen Safety Engineering has been developed recently by HySafe partners with participation of external international ex perts as a first important step in the establishment of training and educational programmes in hydrogen safety. Currently, these programmes are absent in Europe. The development of teaching materials according to the Curriculum and reflecting the state-of-the-art is urgently needed for education in this field which is essential for the public acceptance and the safe commercialisation of hydrogen applications. High quality teaching materials will be developed in HyCourse by leading world-class experts select ed throughout the world. The training field addresses the thematic priority area 6.1 ¿Sustainable Energy Systems¿ particularly 6.1.3.2.2 ¿New technologies for energy carriers/transport and storage, in particular hydrogen¿. Four events will take place in fo ur different locations in Europe with the first hold in Ulster. During each 10 day summer school, 16 keynote speakers will give lectures to 60 researchers. Round table discussions, work-in-progress sessions, software demonstrations/training are organised t o stimulate contact building between leading experts and junior researchers. The lectures will be used to develop two on-line modules, one in fundamentals and one in applied hydrogen safety. The e-learning modules will be tested at a session during the las t event and made available to e-Academy partners for their educational programmes to promote culture of safe hydrogen handling in Europe and the rest of the world after completion of the project.
