Now a £10.3 million collaborative gas industry programme, the H21 NIC work will deliver the quantified safety evidence necessary to inform a government policy decision on hydrogen for use in the existing gas network. Split into two phases:
Phase 1b: will involve ‘consequence’ testing and ignition testing trials at DNV-GL’s research centre at RAF Spadeadam in Cumbria, examining various characteristics of how hydrogen behaves in comparison to natural gas.
The testing has been split into four packages, each requiring a distinct build, analysis and experimental phase.
Partners: All UK GDNS, DNV-GL, HSE Laboratories
Funding: Network Innovation Competition (NIC)
