Survey Letter to VAHC Members
SUBJECT: SURVEY ON TECHNICAL AND SAFETY SUPPORT NEEDS IN THE HYDROGEN SECTOR
Dear VAHC Members,
To establish a technical cooperation channel with the Hydrogen Safety Technology Institute of the Korea Gas Safety Corporation (KGS) via the coordination of UNIHYS Co Ltd, an innovative hydrogen safety startup, the VAHC Executive Board respectfully requests your review of the attached materials and provision of information regarding your organization's priority needs.
The attached documents provide detailed information on KGS's comprehensive hydrogen safety management system, including:
-
Safety standards and management systems across the entire hydrogen value chain (production, transportation, storage, utilization).
-
Overview of hydrogen vehicle refueling stations and classification by supply/deployment method.
-
Technology processes for hydrogen production facilities (water electrolysis, extraction).
-
Key programs on training, inspection, and safety culture enhancement.
REQUEST FOR FEEDBACK:
To identify cooperation focuses that align with the practical needs in Vietnam, members are kindly requested to provide information based on the following questions:
-
Your organization's main field of activity related to the hydrogen value chain (e.g., Hydrogen Production/Electrolysis, Transportation/Logistics, HRS Design/Construction, Fuel Cell Equipment Development/Supply, Safety Consulting/Inspection, etc.).
-
Among the following safety areas, which are your highest priorities for needing technical support, training, or policy consultation? (Please select up to 03 areas)
-
Hydrogen production safety (from water electrolysis or natural gas extraction)
-
Hydrogen transportation safety (standards for storage containers, transport vehicles, logistics management)
-
Hydrogen storage safety (high-pressure vessels, storage facility monitoring systems)
-
Hydrogen refueling station operation safety (design, installation, maintenance, emergency response)
-
Industrial application & fuel cell safety
-
Building safety management systems, personnel training, and safety culture development
-
-
Briefly describe the specific need or challenge your organization faces in the priority area(s) selected above (e.g., lack of technical standards framework, need for operational staff training, need for consultation on project safety approval procedures, etc.).
DEADLINE FOR FEEDBACK:
To ensure timely consolidation and development of a cooperation proposal for our Korean partners, the VAHC Executive Board requests your feedback by 5:00 PM, January 31, 2026.
