Did you know that heating your home with hydrogen will be one way you can help the UK reach its net zero targets by 2050?
Unlike the natural gas boilers we use today hydrogen doesn’t produce carbon and so will help us move towards a greener future. @RachelRileyRR
This is a very useful summary. Thanks to @david_joffe . Hydrogen blending is not for the sake of it but to support the scale of early hydrogen production. We needs loads of hydrogen so let’s put in place some sensible mechanisms that support this ambition.
🧵 on H₂ blending, in the news recently thanks to a letter by a coalition led by @E3G to the Govt (and reported in the Guardian)

Just heard someone refer to wind projects that are not able to get a grid connection as "trapped wind projects" and I think that might be the best energy thing I've heard in ages.
HAPPY DUNKELFLAUTE DAY! Or a snow day, to non-energy geeks. Here’s a quick thread summarising what’s happening and how a low carbon system could respond to a similar challenge. /1
We are getting the ball rolling on piloting a hydrogen heated town 🏠
This is our latest step to explore the benefits of hydrogen - a potential greener, safer and cost-effective way to heat homes in future.

Our Hydrogen Experience Centre in Ellesmere Port is now open!
Visitors can meet our local team, book a free in-home hydrogen assessment and see examples of appliances and technologies that would be available in a world with hydrogen heating. Read more: crowd.in/VuQzml
Surprise end to a long day - literally having a walk with the PM around the #CPC22 Hydrogen Zone with some of our @IGEMGi members. All credit to Beyond2050 - great event.
"I think hydrogen is ultimately the silver bullet. We create it from renewable sources... we use it as an effective battery and it can then, with some adjustments, be piped through to people’s houses to heat them during the winter" @Jacob_Rees_Mogg
👋Watch now for all the action from our Hydrogen Investment Forum yesterday with @beisgovuk and featuring our CEO @_Clare_Jackson and a clip of the event's keynote speaker, Secretary of State @KwasiKwarteng as he discusses the 'super fuel of the future'.
#H2InvestForum#Energy
We’re delighted to introduce @theCCCuk to @HyNetNW & the industrial cluster work being led by @ProgressiveEne1, @CadentGasLtd, @Essar & @VertexHydrogen. We've dived into detail on production, transport, storage, #CCUS, #H2 testing & industrial consumers signed up to take a supply
Thanks to @CadentGasLtd who have updated @theCCCuk on the projects they're leading on with #hydrogen, including the #HyDeploy blending programme that got widescale blending onto the agenda of the Hydrogen Strategy, & the 100% hydrogen village bid for Whitby in Ellesmere Port.
Less than a week away until our #Hydrogen Investment Forum with @beisgovuk featuring an address from keynote speaker, Rt Hon @KwasiKwarteng.
The event is an opportunity for leaders in government and business to collaborate for the pursuit of a UK hydrogen economy. #H2Invest2022
Why is now the time for the UK to build a #hydrogen economy?
Hydrogen helps sectors which are hard to decarbonise – such as heavy industry - reduce CO2 emissions and reach #NetZero.
