Objectives:
Study hydrogen value chain in relation to the different
Energy sources and end-use applications.
Study hydrogen behavior models to identify associated consequences and define safety parameters.
Quantitative risk assessment for consequence modeling and risk mitigation of specific hydrogen safety challenge.

Expected Outcomes:
This study will provide detailed and new insights into hydrogen safety and risk mitigation methodologies. A systematic model and algorithm will be developed to trace hydrogen hazards and risk based on the review of hydrogen behavior models. In addition, a machine learning model will be developed to evaluate the safety challenges of hydrogen across the value chain.

About myself:
Engaged in the dynamic field of hydrogen safety and renewable energy, my journey unfolds as a Master’s by Research scholar at Kathmandu University. Currently immersed in the role of a Research Assistant at the Green Hydrogen Lab, my academic focus, rooted in Mechanical Engineering, converges on pioneering research. I am dedicated to developing a quantitative model aimed at mitigating risks within the hydrogen value chain. Beyond academia, my collaborative spirit extends to fruitful partnerships with National Government Energy Institutions and International organizations. Proficiently managing renewable energy initiatives, I actively facilitate the transfer of technology, particularly in the context of green hydrogen, contributing to its indigenous implementation within Nepal. My commitment to practical applications is underscored by a role in shaping the indigenous implementation of green hydrogen technologies. Driven by a passion for sustainability, my research interests span risk analysis of hydrogen systems, the integration of artificial intelligence to enhance hydrogen safety, and modeling end-use applications of hydrogen. My persona reflects a blend of academic rigor, a collaborative spirit, and a persistent dedication to shaping a greener, more sustainable future.
