RINA secures safety assessment contract for Indonesia’s H2WATT hydrogen hub
In Indonesia, RINA, the global inspection, certification and engineering consultancy group, has been awarded a contract to deliver safety assessment services for the Green Hydrogen Hub Project H2WATT, an initiative led by PLN Puslitbang, the research and development arm of Indonesia’s state-owned electricity company PT PLN (Persero).
Under the terms of the agreement, RINA will assess fire and explosion risks across the facility, helping to ensure safe design and operation as the hydrogen infrastructure is developed. The activity includes a comprehensive safety assessment covering the identification of potential hydrogen release scenarios, evaluation of incident likelihood, and modeling of consequences such as fire or explosion. Using internationally recognized methodologies and advanced simulation tools, the company will provide a detailed risk profile for the facility and recommend mitigation measures, including requirements for ventilation and gas detection systems.
RINA is also in discussions with PLN Puslitbang to deliver the voluntary ISCC PLUS certification for green hydrogen for the hydrogen refueling station within the plant. The certification verifies the sustainability and low-carbon credentials of hydrogen and its derivatives.
