This project seeks to extend the principle of hydrogen conversion as established in the Leeds City Gate, across key UK urban centres.
The UK’s natural gas network has an unmatched ability to meet the massive swings in energy required to heat properties, from the low demands of mid-summer to the peak demands of winter.
But burning of natural gas is not sustainable given the requirements of the Climate Change Act, hence the Leeds City Gate investigation into switching gas from methane to hydrogen.
