Hydrogen energy & hydronic heating: Is hydrogen replacing gas?
Updated: Oct 16, 2023
Hydrogen is the most abundant chemical substance in the universe, constituting roughly 75% of all normal matter.
Q What is hydrogen?
A Hydrogen is a gas (H2) when burnt releases 100% clean energy and converts to water (H20) and Carbon dioxide. In Greek, hydrogen translates to “water former”.

"Hydrogen cars will be available in Australia by 2028, direct competition to EV (Electric vehicles) cheaper to buy, using the old combustion engine technology"
hydrogen energy & hydronic heating
All condensing hydronic boilers can be retuned to run on hydrogen gas. It is expected in the near future, 20% hydrogen gas will be mixed into natural gas Australian supplies safely, with little changes made to existing infrastructure.
