Scotland Pioneers Green Hydrogen Network with H100 Fife Trial
Key Ideas
  • SGN completes the world's first domestic hydrogen gas network in Fife, Scotland, fueled by green hydrogen generated from an offshore wind turbine.
  • Residents can join the green hydrogen community, maintaining their home comfort with zero-carbon emissions during combustion.
  • The H100 Fife trial aims to provide valuable data for future low-carbon policy decisions in Scotland and the UK, expected by 2026.
  • SGN is investing in upskilling gas engineers and partnering with Fife College to establish the UK's first hydrogen training facility for transitioning to hydrogen appliances.
SGN has successfully constructed the world's first domestic hydrogen gas network in Scotland as part of the H100 Fife trial. This innovative project will see the distribution of green hydrogen produced from a local offshore wind turbine through an 8.4km network, offering residents the opportunity to be part of Scotland's first green hydrogen community. The focus is on reducing carbon emissions, with hydrogen combustion emitting no carbon, ensuring a cleaner energy source. The project is pivotal in informing future low-carbon policy decisions for Scotland and the UK by 2026. Residents in the network area will continue to enjoy the same level of home comfort, with the added benefit of environmentally friendly energy. SGN is actively engaging with the community and expressing gratitude for their support and cooperation throughout the project. Additionally, the company is investing in training gas engineers to facilitate the transition of homes to hydrogen gas mains and is collaborating with Fife College to establish the UK's first hydrogen training facility. This initiative aims to equip engineers with the necessary skills to install new hydrogen appliances, contributing to a more sustainable energy future.
