Effect of hydrogen on metals is a complex phenomenon. The objective of this paper was to outline the recent application of scanning Kelvin probe (SKP) for a deeper understanding of nature and properties of metal-hydride system. SKP belongs to the family of scanning probe electrochemistry techniques (SPETs) that are currently used and developed. Different applications of SKP technique for hydrogen detection in metals, hydrogen permeation through metals with high local resolution, and quantitative analysis of hydrogen in materials, were presented. The emphasis in this work was on presenting specific applications of SKP rather than extensive reviews; details of how and why this technique is useful in research area was given.
