Hydrogen Codes and StandardsOverview of US DOE
Program

• Jim Ohi
• National Renewable Energy Laboratory
• National H2FC Codes and Standards Coordinating
  Committee
• Long Beach, CA
• March 15, 2006

Approach

• Develop unified national agenda for codes and
  standards
• National templates adopted by consensus of
  SDO/MCDs
• accelerate development of priority standards
• designate and support lead SDO/MCDs
• facilitate access to standards/model codes
  through ANSI H2 Portal
• Coordinate national codes and standards
  activities
• DOE Safety, Codes and Standards Technology
  Management Team
• National H2-FC Codes and Standards Coordinating
  Committee
• Coordinate RD through Codes and Standards Tech
  Team, FreedomCAR-Fuel Partnership
• RD Roadmap
• Hydrogen Behavior
• Vehicles
• Fuel Infrastructure
• Fuel-Vehicle Interface
• Coordinate safety through DOE Hydrogen Safety
  Panel
• Harmonize technical standards and global
  technical regulations
