Your Hydrogen Safety Experts
WHA International, Inc. has been a leader in hydrogen safety since 1988. Many of our engineers come directly from NASA or the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). At NASA, hydrogen fuels and fuel cells were pioneered through the Space Program, while renewable energy technologies and infrastructure for hydrogen production, transportation, and use are researched at NREL. Our consultants played pivotal roles in the technology development and safe use of hydrogen at both institutions, are internationally-recognized authorities on hydrogen safety, and are uniquely equipped to address your specific concerns.
Hydrogen Safety Solutions
We help analyze, review, train, and test hydrogen systems and components for every industry. Our services are backed by decades of hydrogen testing, technology development, and forensic engineering experience.
Hydrogen Failure Analysis
Discover the root cause of hydrogen fires and explosions through data-driven analysis.
Hydrogen Combustion Risk Analysis (HCRA)
Analyze the risks of components and systems designed for hydrogen service.
Custom Hydrogen Testing
Test components for qualification and conformance.
Hydrogen Safety Training
Equip your staff with cutting-edge hydrogen safety training and customizable multi-level content.
We're Literally Setting the Standards
Our hydrogen consultants maintain active leadership roles in standards committees for NFPA 2 and ISO TC 197. They are also active participants in the Center for Hydrogen Safety (CHS) and members of the Hydrogen Safety Panel. We're here to help the hydrogen economy grow safely and securely.
Hydrogen Safety Training
As the hydrogen economy grows, so do the risks. WHA’s hydrogen safety training features industry experts, unique case studies, live fire and explosion demonstrations, and the latest data to help you understand this complex subject.
Electrolyzer Safety Training
New for 2022, WHA has developed a special course specifically for electrolysis systems. This standalone course teaches the fundamental understanding and awareness of hydrogen and oxygen.
