Hydrogen Detection Solutions Are Crucial

Very large quantities of hydrogen are safely used in industry today, but it’s hard to contain and difficult to detect leaks. Hydrogen is a very large industrial commodity with a growing market. “Hydrogen has grown by more than 300%¹² since 1975 and continues to rise globally. By 2023, industrial demand for hydrogen is expected to grow to USD 199.1 billion.¹³” (Shaping Tomorrow’s Global Hydrogen Market, Baker McKenzie, 2020)

The introduction of hydrogen as a consumer fuel has caused heightened concerns over its safety with a corresponding increased interest in hydrogen sensors.
