| Objectives | This research programme forms the basis of the assessment process developed to provide the NEC with the required evidence for them to be able to authorise the admission of greater quantities of Schedule 3 Part II gas into the network in accordance with their statutory responsibilities. An increased understanding of the potential of effects of wider specifications of gas entering the Transmission System which will improve National Grid’s ability to maintain security of supply. | |
| Abstract | This project aims to provide clarification of the effects of the allowing gas that conforms to outer quality extremities (Schedule 3 Part II) prescribed by the Gas Safety (Management) Regulations 1996 into the network. The use of Schedule 3 Part II gas by the Network Emergency Controller (NEC) may be required to reduce the risk of a supply deficit emergency developing thus protecting downstream gas consumers. Deliverables of study are as follows: Undertake a review of the existing published technical literature on Schedule 3 Part II gas and its effect on industrial and domestic consumers’ appliances. Identify if the questions to be considered by the study can be satisfactorily answered using the existing published technical literature. Provide answers to the questions to be considered by the study using the existing published technical literature if relevant information is available. Publish a report on conclusion of the study identifying if the questions to be considered by the study can be satisfactorily answered and if so provide the answers. Identify any further work including, but not limited to, experimental work that may need to undertake to answer the questions to be considered by the study if satisfactory answers cannot be prepared from the existing published technical literature.Note : Project Documents may be available via the ENA Smarter Networks Portal using the Website link above | |
