Hydrogen

One of the most straightforward ways of making your home heating greener is to move away from natural gas and replace it with hydrogen.

In fact, you may find your current boiler is already suitable for a gas that’s far less damaging for the planet than natural gas. The only by-product of burning hydrogen is water, so it’s a carbon-free source of fuel.

How does switching to hydrogen work?

Most gas appliances now in use can run on a mixture of hydrogen and natural gas. This includes most boilers where a ‘blend’ of 20% hydrogen gas and 80% natural gas can be used.

You need to check if your boiler is hydrogen ready or look for a new hydrogen-ready boiler if you need to replace it. The government is gradually increasing the amount of green gas like hydrogen in the UK’s gas grid, so having the right boiler will mean you don’t have to make wholesale changes in the future.

Hydrogen can be manufactured from water, using electricity as a renewable energy source, or from natural gas carbon capture and storage.
