The HIGGS Project
HIGGS project aims to pave the way to decarbonisation of the gas grid and its usage, by covering the gaps of knowledge of the impact that high levels of hydrogen could have on the gas infrastructure, its components and its management.
To reach this goal, several activities, including mapping of technical, legal and regulatory barriers and enablers, testing and validation of systems and innovation, techno-economic modelling and the preparation of a set of conclusions as a pathway towards enabling the injection of hydrogen in high-pressure gas grids, are developed in the project.

About the Project
The main goal of the HIGGS project "Hydrogen in Gas Grids - A systematic
vallidation approach at variuos admixture levels into high-pressure
grids" is to facilitate that existing gas infrastructure can be a way of
transporting hydrogen from point of production to its final destination
of utilisation. Within the project the partners will cooperate to
analys the potential and requirements of existing high pressure
infrastructure, its components and its managment in concern to the
incorporation of hydrogen.
Consortium
All partners involved in HIGGS are renowned national organisations in
the field of gas and materials research. The span includes technical
scientific associations over research institutes to high pressure gas
grid operators. If you want further information to one ore more of the
partners, follow the logos.
