About HyRRAC

Risk assessment is often used to ensure that adequate measures are taken to protect workers, the public, the environment, infrastructure, and assets. A detailed risk assessment can also be used to direct funding and upgrades to specific components and sub-systems to mitigate risks to the larger system. In this way, risk assessments are often employed as part of a larger risk management strategy with the goal of minimizing the occurrence of hazards and to identify means to limit their consequences. This conference brings together hydrogen risk research experts, industry, and enthusiasts in one place to share their findings, experience, and research progress towards risk and reliability of large-scale hydrogen storage plants and systems.


About SERAD

The Safety Engineering Risk Analysis Division (SERAD) is the leading group to advance the state of the art of safety engineering and risk analysis by bringing together leading experts from academia, national labs, and industry.​ Its creation of the Hydrogen Risk and Reliability Analysis Conference (HyRRAC) is to increase the visibility and prioritization of safety in hydrogen.

SERAD also participates in:​

Journals:​

  • ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems, Part A Mechanical Engineering​

Committees:​

  • Risk Technology Technical Committee

About ASME

ASME is a not-for-profit membership organization that enables collaboration, knowledge sharing, career enrichment, and skills development across all engineering disciplines, toward a goal of helping the global engineering community develop solutions to benefit lives and livelihoods. Founded in 1880 by a small group of leading industrialists, ASME has grown through the decades to include more than 140,000 members in 151 countries.

For more than 100 years, ASME has successfully enhanced performance and safety worldwide through its renowned codes and standards, conformity assessment programs, training courses, and journals.

ASME also produces nearly 40 international conferences. These industry-leading events feature advanced research and technical content spanning a range of industries impacted by mechanical engineering, including energy production, energy sources, advanced manufacturing, and engineering sciences.
