Safer and Faster PtX

Safe and faster PtX implementation pathways

Background

DBI has in collaboration with Force Technology committed to Safe PtX Innomission 2, “Safer and Faster PtX”. This is an infrastructure project, that should benefit development of equipment producers and plant owners by reducing uncertainties related to safety and approval processes, and hereby supporting and enabling investment decisions and faster time to market for PtX production plants.

The purpose of the project is to support the development of the recommended safety requirements for PtX implementation in Denmark. Safety requirements and standards are fundamental necessities for a fast pathway towards PtX-implementation.

Risk identification, and mitigation by the development of transparent fast implementable PtX Safety Guideline, is an important tool in paving the way for the required scaling and integration of technologies in relation to both the safety and the public acceptance. This project applies to both PtX plants, suppliers, and communities.

Objectives

Fact finding in relation to existing projects
Involvement workshop for relevant stakeholders
Conduct workshops, develop recommended practices and a draft “safe PtX. guideline”
Establish and run a PtX. safety forum
Mapping safety risk and documentation for PtX. production plants
Mapping safety risk and documentation for equipment and systems
Involving all relevant stakeholders
Identifying local innovation needs for standards
Demonstrate efficiency of the guideline and recommendations
Disseminating the guideline and in the PtX. community

Results and impact

Jesper Sjørvad presents the Safe and Faster PtX guideline at the release event.

The Power-to-X Safety Network has been established by FORCE Technology and DBI to accelerate the activities needed to make Power-to-X and Green Fuel safe and reliable. Sharing of knowledge, problems and solutions will play an important role in the green energy transition. Read about the Power-to-X Safety Network here.
The Safe and Faster PtX guideline aims to improve safety and enable faster implementation of PtX production plants, by providing a comprehensive overview of recommended practices, relevant regulations, information on green fuel characteristics, societal perspectives, and more. Go to the Safe and Faster PtX guideline platform here.
A broad dissemination of the guideline and lessons learned from PtX forum has been shared.
