Mission & Goals
The Ready4H2 project consists of more than 60 European Gas Distribution System Operators (DSOs) and national associations in 10 countries in Europe, working together to support a hydrogen market for future energy delivery - through the transformation of local gas distribution networks to deliver hydrogen - and a common European understanding of the role of gas distribution grids in delivering hydrogen. Our work is organised under three pillars: (1) Advocacy & Comms: Create a common understanding of the value of DSOs in the hydrogen value chain to support the development of the hydrogen market at national and EU levels. Work with members and partner associations to demonstrate the hydrogen-readiness of DSOs. (2) Technical Knowledge Sharing: Share knowledge among DSOs on the technical and commercial aspects of the transition of distribution gas networks to hydrogen. (3) Research: Conduct research on technical, commercial and other issues that affect the business case for hydrogen.
