Energy Networks Association recently launched the Gas Goes Green programme, which will deliver the world’s first zero carbon gas grid.

Delivering our net-zero vision will involve participation from engineers, policy makers, regulators, the energy industry and consumers.

The programme brings together the engineering expertise of all five of Britain’s gas network companies with the wider energy industry, policymakers, and academics, it will make the changes needed to move Britain's gas network infrastructure from delivering natural gas to hydrogen and biomethane. And we are seeking expressions of interest to join our Advisory Group to inform the programme and help us continue to make progress on our deliverables.

Our launch document details the programme’s initial workstreams and deliverables, through which we will take the next steps in delivering net zero.

The European Commission presented the European Green Deal in December 2019 outlining the main policy initiatives for reaching net-zero global warming emissions by 2050 and hydrogen will be a key instrument for meeting the EU Green Deal objectives.

During this first webinar, Hydrogen Europe will explain why hydrogen is the perfect partner to the EU Green Deal and how to accelerate the new hydrogen legislation and the hydrogen economy. We will also answer your questions on this topic.

Scotland has set a target for Net Zero by 2045, with hydrogen featuring in plans for rapid decarbonisation of heat, industry, and heavy duty transport. We will hear about progress with transport fuel cell applications from Nicolas Pocard, and with hydrogen for heat from Mark Crowther. This will be complemented by insights from Mirela Atanasiu and Dr Kerry-Ann Adamson on the priorities for post-COVID economic recovery, and the opportunity to pivot towards sustainable energy and transport solutions not just in Scotland but also UK and Europe.

MaREI’s 9th Annual Energy and Climate Policy Research Seminar will take place on May 20 next as a webinar and it builds upon a strong history of collaboration between UCC & the ESRI whilst also celebrating the ESRI becoming a MaREI partner institution in 2019. Prof Alan Barrett, CEO of the ESRI & Prof. Anita Maguire, Vice-President for Research & Innovation in UCC will give the opening address on the morning.

This promises to be a thought provoking and informing seminar with leading experts from a variety of institutions sharing their thought leadership, including a Keynote Address from Ms. Laura Cozzi, Chief Energy Modeller at the International Energy Agency on aligning the post pandemic recovery with the clean energy transition.

As part of the UK’s efforts to meet the net zero challenge by 2050, the HyDeploy Consortium – led by the UK’s largest gas distribution network, Cadent – have been working to demonstrate that a 20% blend of hydrogen and natural gas can be used safely for cooking and for heating 100 homes and 30 faculty buildings at Keele University.

We announced the start of this highly innovative demonstration in January 2020 and we would be delighted if you could join us for a live webinar update to celebrate this ground-breaking achievement, to view our exclusive film and to find out more. Consortium partners, including Northern Gas Networks, HSE Laboratories, ITM Power, Progressive Energy and Keele University, will be happy to answer your questions in a Q&A session in the second half of the event. Submit your question now when you book your place at this unique event.

We will share the success of the project so far, the public response to it and its implications for net zero in the future.

Don’t miss this opportunity to find out more about the UK’s first ever demonstration of using hydrogen in our homes. This is the first step on the pathway towards using 100% hydrogen in the future to ensure that our heating is fully decarbonised by 2050.

Chris Scott, from Hydrock's Smart Energy and Sustainability team, will be talking through the milestones to reach net zero, including key regulatory deadlines, gas phase out, etc.

He will assess where the UK stands now, what milestones we know are on the horizon, and what we anticipate might happen next.

He will review how different pathways may play out - electric vs hydrogen, for example - and how these milestones will trickle down from government to affect local authorities, developers and individuals.

There will also be time for questions at the end.

Opportunities for the Hydrogen Economy

We are pleased to welcome Charley Rattan for our Live Lunch on Learn on Opportunities for the Hydrogen Economy.

As we move towards zero-carbon new applications for hydrogen promise to transform the way we live, work and do business. Emerging technologies will revolutionise the way we think about energy, heating, transport and energy storage; creating a new economic infrastructure and supply chain where huge opportunities await.

The race is on for early entrants to the market – don’t be left behind.

Charley Rattan, a respected energy insider and influencer for over 25 years, with a track record of successful major project delivery; a trusted strategic advisor to global energy companies and an advocate and facilitator for the emerging innovation energy market.

Aimed at existing energy supply chain businesses as well as those looking to enter the market.

Hosted by the Canadian Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association (CHFCA), K’ul Group, and Trade Commissioner Service (Global Affairs Canada), the webinar will discuss how low-cost, low-carbon intensity hydrogen can be produced using surplus renewable energy and subsequently be injected into the natural gas grid. In doing so, the hydrogen can displace natural gas, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on high-carbon fuels. Other topics include power-to-gas initiatives that are currently underway in Canada and the US, as well as opportunities for First Nations and independent power producers to develop renewable P2G projects.

The line-up of webinar speakers includes representatives from Natural Resources Canada, US Department of Energy (DOE) Fuel Cell Technologies Office, RedwoodAdaptive, Hydrogenics, Air Liquide, Enbridge, National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), HTEC, University of British Columbia (UBC), Siemens, FortisBC, SoCal Gas, British Columbia Utilities Commission (BCUC), and more.
