UK setting its sights too low for hydrogen heating in homes

The UK should move faster to replace gas with hydrogen in domestic heating, as the country’s pipes will be ready to make the switch in just two years, according to the head of a pilot project. While the pipes will be ready, what’s missing is the hydrogen that will run through them. The government has committed to developing 5 GW of production capacity for the fuel and the first town heated entirely by it by 2030. Tim Harwood, who is running a pilot project near Carlisle, northern England, says much more is possible by then.
