Explosion at an Electrolyzer at a Refueling Station (1084)
This incident occurred at the electrolyzer of a refuelling station. An employee of the electrolyzers manufacturer was on-site to conduct a reset of the plant power breaker system and to restart gas generation. Whilst putting the system into generation, a loud bang was heard. By reviewing the station CCTV evidence, a cloud of water vapour was seen being emitted from the oxygen vent line of the electrolyzer container. The gas generation system was safely shut down, and an investigation was started to understand the cause and potential impacts.
