Road incident of a Truck Carrying Hydrogen Cylinders (755)

A minor fire broke out following a gas leak from hydrogen cylinders. A truck was returning to the base company after offloading hydrogen cylinders at a factory. The driver lost control and crashed against a pillar on a bridge over a river and overturned. Police brought a crane from to right the vehicle but as the lift started, the truck rolled backwards, the crane's wire rope snapped, damaging the valves on several cylinders and leaking hydrogen then caught fire. Fire and Rescue Service Personnel took more than an hour to extinguish the fire. The road was blocked for about six hours.

Explosion of a Hydrogen Tank (710)

A tank "filled with low-pressure hydrogen" exploded at a food manufacturing plant, killing three workers. The accident occurred when the workers were welding inside the tank after clearing hydrogen to install a hydrogen measuring device. The tank, seven metres high and two and half metres wide, was destroyed by the explosion. Police investigated the exact cause of the accident and suspected the sparks from the welding work caused the explosion with the remaining hydrogen inside the tank as the employees failed to completely remove the hydrogen before conducting the work.
