Summary

A project to develop a study to assess the interaction of gas-fired peaking plants connected to WWU network, when the plant is converted to Hydrogen
Benefits
There is a lot of ongoing work to identify the most effective route to meet net zero in the UK and this project is one of many projects to evidence the major or minor role hydrogen will have in different scenarios. Repurposing the UK gas networks with hydrogen to support the challenge of the climate change act has the potential to save £millions with minimal gas customer disruption verses alternative decarbonisation solutions.
