National Gas | Future Grid 

This system provides GB with a significant opportunity to decarbonise various industries by 
transporting low-carbon gases such as hydrogen, biomethane and various synthetic fuels.

Transitioning this system would also pave the way for industrial emitters to decarbonise either through fuel switching 
or transporting carbon dioxide to potential storage sites around the United Kingdom (UK). Recognising 
the imperative to transition to a low-carbon future, the Future Grid project sought to explore 
the feasibility of repurposing the NTS to transport hydrogen. 


This project, an essential part of the National Gas HyNTS programme, endeavours to align the NTS 
with GB’s net zero ambitions by demonstrating the operational viability of the system with varying 
hydrogen blends using decommissioned assets, typical of the natural gas network today, ultimately aiming 
for 100% hydrogen conveyance
