Governance, rules and the road ahead: a new video interview with Orlando Redondo
Press play on our latest interview: how the public sector is laying the regulatory groundwork for a hydrogen economy.
Pilot 7
Hydrogen heating for public buildings
Energy consumers
Scope:
Hydrogen-natural gas blending for a cleaner hospital
The hospital will blend up to 20% hydrogen with natural gas in its existing boiler system, aiming to lower CO2 emissions from heating (currently around 10,000 tonnes/year). A new hydrogen distribution network will be installed, with two new gas mixers in each boiler that will blend natural gas and hydrogen in the desired proportions. The pilot will also explore the use of a dedicated hydrogen burner in one boiler as a test case. Annual hydrogen consumption is estimated at up to 200 tonnes.
