Green Hydrogen Infrastructure: Why Fastening Solutions Matter More Than Ever

Image
Introduction: The Hidden Backbone of Green Hydrogen Projects Green hydrogen is rapidly emerging as a cornerstone of the global energy transition. Electrolyzers powered by renewable electricity, high-pressure compression systems, storage vessels, pipelines, and refuelling infrastructure are being deployed at an unprecedented pace. While much attention is given to electrolyzer efficiency, catalyst innovation, and renewable integration, one critical element often remains underestimated: fastening technology . In hydrogen applications, fasteners are not commodity components. They are safety-critical, performance-critical, and lifecycle-critical elements that directly influence plant reliability, leak tightness, maintenance costs, and regulatory compliance. At Bossard, we see fastening not as a product, but as an engineered system that must perform reliably in one of the most demanding industrial environments. Why Green Hydrogen Poses Unique Challenges for Fasteners Hydrogen infras...
