Hydrogen gas grid would transform CCS economics
The production of hydrogen for heating would provide a large and steady stream of demand for CCS, de-risking investment in infrastructure, according to network’s head of hydrogen technologies Dan Sadler.

Consumers pose biggest barrier to low-carbon heat
The heat sector faces a “completely different” situation to the power sector, where decarbonisation has so far had relatively little direct impact on the lives of customers.

Blending hydrogen into the gas network
HyDeploy aims to establish the potential for blending hydrogen, up to 20 per cent, into the normal gas supply to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. It is working towards a one-year live trial on part of Keele University’s private gas network, starting in 2019.

£15m funding could see hydrogen trialled on gas network
The money, which has been awarded via Ofgem’s Network Innovation Competition (NIC), will fund two field trials on public gas networks, blending hydrogen with natural gas to heat around 750 homes in each of the year-long trials. By funding level, this is this is the largest gas NIC project ever.

£1m upgrade to Huddersfield gas distribution network
The project is part of NGN’s ongoing investment in the gas infrastructure in the area and involves replacing more than 3,500 m of existing metal gas pipes with more durable plastic ones. This will ensure the continued, safe and reliable supply of gas to customers in the area for years to come.
