Gas Interconnectors: Republic of Ireland
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have had any discussions with the government of Ireland about the gas interconnector from the UK that supplies blended gas.
- Answer
-
None of the UK’s gas interconnectors currently supply or receive gas blended with hydrogen. The Department is engaging with officials from the Irish government and transmission system operator of Ireland to understand the implications of the EU hydrogen and gas decarbonisation package regarding hydrogen blending and to ensure continued cross-border trade of gas.
We intend to publish a consultation on blending hydrogen into the GB gas transmission network in the near future.
