Skills you will gain:
  • Understand the fundamentals of hydrogen gas
  • The technologies associated with the production, storage, and safe use of hydrogen
  • The implications of a hydrogen roll-out and the associated safety case

Clearly, hydrogen has a pivotal role in the UK's energy strategy. Technical and management staff in related industries need a sound understanding of the issues surrounding its deployment. This training course is designed to meet that requirement. The course covers the main aspects of hydrogen as a utility, and why this is seen as a potential route to meeting net zero carbon emissions by 2050.

The 'Hydrogen and the Natural Gas Network' course is designed for those with an understanding of the existing natural gas network and the principles of combustion.

Areas that will be covered include:

  • the environmental benefits of using hydrogen as a fuel
  • the principles of combustion and hydrogen-specific aspects
  • why different concentrations of hydrogen deserve consideration
  • the fundamental principles of the network conversion process from natural gas to hydrogen
  • the fundamental safety issues of hydrogen compared to natural gas
  • the fundamental principles of hydrogen production
  • how to store hydrogen
  • how to transport hydrogen
  • the principle factors relating to appliance modification for conversion to hydrogen
  • the economics of hydrogen production and use

This course can be delivered at your location, online or in our dedicated Kiwa Training Suite. Candidates attending our Training Suite will also have a tour of our hydrogen lab facilities and local hydrogen production plant. For more information email uk.kiwaenergytraining@kiwa.com

Why attend the Hydrogen and the Natural Gas Network course?

Hydrogen is currently receiving considerable governmental attention, and yet many people in the industry know little about its properties and complexities. Some of the typical questions that are being asked will be answered are:

  • If hydrogen only has a third of the calorific value of natural gas won’t the pipes have to be three times larger and cost three times more?
  • How can it be odorised?
  • Doesn’t it leak from the pipes?
  • Modifying a boiler is surely very expensive? Can we manufacture dual-fuel boilers?

Attendance at this course will equip you with the facts to answer these and many more questions, and thereby enable you to concentrate on the real unknowns.

Price does not include VAT and depends on course location.
