Hydrogen as a low carbon heating alternative
Replacing natural gas with low carbon hydrogen in all or in parts of the gas grid is a potential option for decarbonising heat in buildings. However, unlike more established technologies such as heat pumps and heat networks, 100% hydrogen for heat is not yet an established option.
HSE’s role in assessing the safety of hydrogen for heating
HSE will provide an authoritative view on the safety of using 100% hydrogen...More
