| Objectives | The project will be delivered in four phases: Phase 1 – Modelling Assessment of Hydrogen Supply requirements based on required energy demand of typical hydrogen ready appliances to ascertain the predicted pressure drop for the various pipe diameters and lengths. Phase 2 - Validation of modelling assessment on H21 test rig. Stage Gate - At the end of Phase 2 a meeting will be held with all of the collaborative partners to review the findings of Phases 1 and 2 with the purpose of agreeing the best way forward for the actual delivery of Phases 3 and 4. Phase 3 - Collation of service connection data to gather the data held on the number of domestic customers by various pipe sizes and connection lengths. Phase 4 - Generate a report reviewing the customer data against model findings, calculating the volume of domestic customer connections that require upgrading. This project will review the service connections from the distribution network pipework to the ECV only. This will include: Modelling the hydrogen demand for the various pipe diameters and lengths. Validating the model results utilising the H21 Phase 1b equipment and houses. Collating the existing connection data from NGN systems. Applying the results of the modelling to the connection data. Reporting on the findings and making recommendations. The scope does not include the pipework located on the property side of the ECV, i.e. the pipe between the ECV and the boiler. The scope also does not include Commercial and Industrial customers, only domestic customers. It will also not consider dual supply services as it is assumed any of these will need to be replaced by individual supplies to properties. It will also not cover domestic multi occupancy supplies such as risers and laterals. To review the existing domestic service population to ensure current levels of security of supply is maintained to our customers following conversion of the network to 100% hydrogen. This project will provide an output report detailing the findings and the volume of replacement service work required to allow conversion to 100% hydrogen. | |
