Hydrogen for heat: Facilitating a ‘grid conversion’ hydrogen heating trial

The government’s Ten Point Plan for a Green Industrial Revolution sets out the ambition to support industry to deliver a hydrogen neighbourhood trial, and a village trial by 2025. This consultation seeks views on proposals to legislate in order to allow Gas Distribution Network Operators to effectively carry out the activities needed to deliver a grid conversion hydrogen trial, and potentially to enhance existing consumer protections to ensure that those living in the trial area continue to receive fair treatment . The consultation will be of particular interest to Gas Distribution Network Operators; the gas value chain and gas industry; consumer rights organisations; regulators; local authorities; and housing rights organisations.
