Safety and practicality of blending 20% hydrogen with methane confirmed in pilot project
A UK trial to blend 20% hydrogen with 80% methane in Keele University’s grid has shown that it’s possible to safely distribute and use hydrogen in a live grid, as well as cope with variation in demand. The 18-month HyDeploy project, which delivered over 42,000m3 of hydrogen to 130 homes and faculty buildings, has already paved the way for a larger trial involving 700 users in north-east England.
