This book mainly focuses on the hydrogen-related laws. Chapter 1 deals with the introduction of hydrogen, which is the basis for understanding hydrogen-related laws. The properties of hydrogen, hydrogen-related policies, hydrogen economy, hydrogen and environmental problems, hydrogen distribution, hydrogen safety, and hydrogen- related legal systems are outlined. Chapter 2 deals with the contents of the Hydrogen Act. For each legal provision, the contents of laws, enforcement decree, and enforcement rule are clearly organized in a single table. Chapter 3 deals with the High-pressure Gas Act. Basically, low-pressure hydrogen is regulated by the Hydrogen Act, and high-pressure hydrogen (liquefied gas is 0.2 MPa, compressed gas is 1MPa or above) is regulated by the High-pressure Gas Act. However, it is still challenging to accurately understand the regulations only with the sentences of the law, because of various exceptions. For example, the Hydrogen Act regulates hydrogen products even at high pressure, while the High-pressure Gas Act regulates hydrogen manufacturing facilities even at low pressure. Chapter 4 deals with the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Since hydrogen is an explosive gas with a high risk, it is subject to a considerable number of provisions in this Act. This chapter deals with provisions on safety and health education and measures to prevent harm and danger. Chapter 5 summarizes and explains the regulations for each subject of regulation for the convenience of the readers. This chapter summarizes and organizes the regulatory content that hydrogen manufacturers, chargers, storage and users, and hydrogen transporters should know. I
