DNV study for EMSA calls for design‑based safety approach for hydrogen‑fuelled ships
DNV has delivered the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) commissioned multi-year study “Safety of hydrogen for use in ships,” culminating in a final report and a non‑mandatory guidance document. The study concludes that design-based safety is required for hydrogen-fuelled ships and recommends secondary enclosures across all hydrogen carrying components, including on open deck.
