National Grid plans role for hydrogen, renewable gas in making US gas grid greener

摘要

National Grid executives see hydrogen and renewable gas playing a major part in decarbonizing its US Northeast natural gas distribution system, but continue to see a limited role for electrification in the company's US operations, they said Oct. 5. The London-based utility's top executives laid out their vision for addressing greenhouse gas emissions from their US and UK gas businesses during a virtual summit on environmental, social and governance issues. Even as they seek to displace fossil fuel supplies with alternatives in the coming years, executives viewed natural gas as critical to the energy transition.
