low carbon
Practical safety solutions for our low-carbon future.
Supporting you on the journey to Net zero
The UK is making significant strides towards its net zero goals, with hydrogen emerging as a key part of the solution. Cogent Skills is dedicated to helping industries navigate these changes, ensuring safety is at the forefront of the transition.
why hydrogen safety matters
Hydrogen brings unique risks that need to be carefully managed across many industries and job roles. Facilities transitioning to hydrogen, including COMAH-regulated sites, must ensure they’re prepared to handle these challenges. Getting it wrong can have serious consequences, as seen in incidents like Bhopal and Piper Alpha. The right skills and training are critical to ensuring a safe and efficient shift to hydrogen.
Our Expertise in Process Safety
Cogent Skills has been helping companies in high-hazard industries to keep themselves and their employees safe for over 20 years. We’re proud to say that we’ve helped to develop the standards that have been used to train over 20,000 process safety professionals globally. Building on this success, we’ve launched a new Process Safety for Managing Hydrogen course, designed to meet the needs of industries adopting this innovative energy source.
Equipping industry for the future
We’re also working with leading partners to develop a range of hydrogen-specific training solutions. This includes the first industry-recognised qualification in Managing Hydrogen Hazards for Hydrogen Plant Operators.
