Up to 20,000 homes and businesses in east Leeds could be used as the guinea pigs in the hydrogen pilot
, which would be responsible for the scheme, says it is submitting a bid for funding in January, with the feasibility of each of three places set to be studied in more detail over the next year.The energy industry is trying to move towards cleaner sources of energy, with the government having promised the UK will be carbon neutral by 2050. The scrutiny board was told that although hydrogen is unlikely to be used in every UK home, it is likely to be “part of the mix”.
Domestic appliances in their current form cannot be used by hydrogen and so homes and businesses are likely to get subsidies to help fork out for new appliances that are compatible.Mr Danter said that a decision on whether or not to roll hydrogen out further across the country was likely to be made in the mid 2020s. He said that an “exit plan” would be built into the pilot scheme, so that the hydrogen-fuelled homes could be converted back to another energy source if necessary.
