You told us that the government cannot make decisions in favour of gas without further evidence that future gas options are feasible. You told us to do this we must be running live trials of hydrogen and that you want to see more trials being done to build an evidence base.
From 2021 our next step will be to move to real-world trials across our portfolio of projects. To achieve this, we will collaborate with gas distribution networks and other utilities to explore the commercial applications of the technology and the most effective delivery models.
