Abstract
This report summarises the discussions that took place around the topic of “Ammonia as an Energy Vector – Health and Safety” during the Health and Safety Workshop of the 1st Symposium on Ammonia Energy hosted at Cardiff University from the 1st to the 3rd of September 2022. Several presenters from various companies and organizations participated in the discussions, and all provided some insight into the most concerning issues when using ammonia as an energy vector. The workshop, hosted by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), promised to examine some important questions that need to be answered via R&D to tackle the unknowns of using ammonia in both the energy and transport sectors. The outcome of the workshop is this document, which will be put forward in the following H&S workshops scheduled to be taking place in future sessions of the Symposium, with the aim of coordinating research efforts undertaken by industries, governmental bodies and academic institutions that are targeted at solving the problems related to producing, carrying, distributing and employing ammonia as an energy source.
