Description

The purpose of the project is to study the compatibility of the EU gas networks with future hydrogen distribution networks and to lay the groundwork for their future regulations.

The main objective is to provide quantified data on more than 70% of the European gas network to refine existing norms, codes, and standards, ensuring the safety and reliability of failure assessment methodologies. This data will serve as the foundation for a harmonized European solution for assessment methodologies.
