The main goal of the project is to enable the wide adoption of H2NG (hydrogen in natural gas) blends by closing knowledge gaps regarding technical impacts on residential and commercial gas appliances. The project consortium will identify and recommend appropriate codes and standards that should be adapted to answer the needs and develop a strategy for addressing the challenges for new and existing appliances.

It will do this by:

    Screening and segmenting the portfolio of appliance technologies in the domestic and commercial sectors and assessing the impact of hydrogen admixtures.
    Testing up to 100 residential and commercial gas appliances to provide a generic protocol that can be adapted for virtually any appliance.
    Developing a validated certification protocol for different levels of H2 in natural gas  
    Making recommendations for manufacturers, decision makers and end-users along the gas value chain for appliance design, manufacture and certification.
