FREE LIVESTREAM EVENT: Fire testing of roof mounted solar panels

In our project 'SOL-IGNIS – Fire testing of roof-mounted solar panels' we are conducting experimental work to lay the foundation for a fire testing method that may eventually become a new European standard. This is being done in dialogue with experts from RISE in Norway and Sweden.The project comprises three full-scale fire tests, and we invite you to join us online for a unique opportunity to witness the third and last test live. Date: 16, October 2025 Time: 9:45-11:15 (CEST) Price: Free Format: Online live streaming (we will send a link to those who have registered) It is difficult to predict the duration of the test, and the end time will therefore depend on how the test progresses. During the test, participants are welcome to submit questions via the chat, which will be addressed in the Q&A session once the test has ended. The webinar is particularly relevant for: Fire safety consultants, insurance companies, and other stakeholders seeking insight into the topic. Practical information: To watch the live stream, you need to register before the event starts. Click the blue ‘Sign up’ button to access the registration page. Partners and funding: The project SOL-IGNIS – Fire testing of roof-mounted solar panels is funded by Fonden Dansk Standard, with RISE Sweden and RISE Norway as discussion partners.

Free one-day course: Introduction to Hydrogen Safety

This one-day course provides a comprehensive overview of hydrogen safety in the context of P2X systems. Designed for professionals and decision-makers at the early stages of engaging with hydrogen technologies, the course offers a comprehensive overview of technical fundamentals, safety considerations, and regulatory and societal dimensions. Participants will be introduced to diverse applications, technologies of hydrogen within energy systems and will develop a foundational understanding of its properties, safety implications, and key hazards. More course dates will be published on an ongoing basis until january 2026. All courses will take place at DBI's headoffice: Jernholmen 12, 2650 Hvidovre, Denmark Registration: Click the blue Sign Up button at the top of the page to access the registration page with more information.

Free one-day course: Power-to-x safety (in danish)

This course provides a basic introduction to P2X technologies with a focus on safety. It is designed to support the growing need for knowledge of P2X and fuels such as ammonia, methanol and hydrogen, and also provide an overview of risk assessment methodology and public perception. The course is a part of the international project GreenSkills4H2, where DBI - The Danish Institute of Fire and Security Technology, contribute with expertise in fire, safety and risk management to the development of training programs for hydrogen technologies. Course date: Thursday 13/11/2025 from 08:30-15:00 Address: DBI Fredericia, Strevelinsvej 4, 7000 Fredericia Click the blue (Sign Up) button at the top of the page to access the registration page with more information.

Free two-day course: Advanced Hydrogen Safety

This two-day advanced course provides a comprehensive exploration of hydrogen safety in the context of P2X systems, with a strong emphasis on safety, risk management, and regulatory compliance. Participants will gain in-depth knowledge of hydrogen properties, storage methods, and behaviour under various release and ignition scenarios. The course integrates a live demonstration of a hydrogen jet fire and small-scale explosion, supported by advanced measurement tools, to visualise and quantify key hazard phenomena. More course dates will be published on an ongoing basis until january 2026. All courses will take place at DBI's headoffice: Jernholmen 12, 2650 Hvidovre, Denmark Registration: Click the blue “Sign Up' button at the top of the page to access the registration page with more information.

Webinar: Are we ready for an outage of the digital infrastructures? – lessons learned from Ukraine

Date: 29 October, 2025Time: 09:00–10:30 (CET)Language: English About the Webinar With the heightened threat landscape facing Denmark—as outlined in Danish Security and Defence towards 2035—there is an urgent need to reinforce the mechanisms that form our national cyber emergency preparedness. These mechanisms must be capable of withstanding highly complex and potentially state-sponsored cyberattacks. In Denmark, as in many other countries, we currently lack sufficient empirical data to fully understand how a paralyzing cyberattack would impact our digital infrastructure. What would happen if authorities, businesses, and citizens were suddenly cut off from internet access? What would the consequences be for critical sectors heavily dependent on telecommunications? In this webinar, hosted by Resilience Center Denmark (RCD), a team of researchers from ITU, SDU and DBI will present findings from a pilot project funded by the National Defence Center (NFC). The study explored the readiness of the Danish telecommunications sector, with comparative insights from Ukraine’s experience in defending against Russian cyberattacks on critical infrastructure. Speakers Oksana Kulyk (ITU) – Project results: Harms and ThreatsPeter Mayer (SDU) – Project results: Solutions and ChallengesJari Kickbusch (ITU) – Behind the Scenes of the Interviews in UkraineJorge Ivan Contreras-Cardeno (DBI) – Conclusions, Next Steps – A Resilience Perspective Why you shouldn’t miss it The webinar will: Highlight society’s deep interdependency on telecommunications.Expose the lack of clear, actionable preparedness and emergency response guidance for organizations and citizens.Offer reflections on how lessons from Ukraine could shape Denmark’s path toward more robust and inclusive cyber resilience. We invite professionals working in critical infrastructure sectors, risk and crisis management, business continuity, cyber preparedness, and NIS2 and CER Directive implementation to take part in this timely discussion.
