The Finnish Safety and Chemicals Agency (Tukes) investigated what caused the explosion at Helsinki City Theatre on 29 June 2020, and the results are now ready. The explosion was caused by hydrogen gas that got into the sprinkler room from the sprinkler system’s pipes during the system’s maintenance. Together with indoor air, it formed a flammable mix of hydrogen gas and air.
