Tender description

To appoint contractors to develop ancillary components (including control valves, excess flow valves and alarms) necessary for the safe installation of hydrogen appliances and comparable on cost to the natural gas approved components used today including hydrogen alarms as part of the Hy4Heat programme’s WP4b. Hy4Heat is a feasibility study to establish if it is technically possible, safe and convenient to replace natural gas (methane) with hydrogen in residential and commercial buildings and gas appliances. There are 3 lots: Lot 1: Dev’t of piping, pipe fittings, gas valves, gas pressure regulators and emergency control valves that are compatible and safe for use with hydrogen. Lot 2: Dev’t of gas excess flow valves (EFV) suitable for use in low pressure hydrogen supply pipes downstream of the emergency control valve (ECV). Lot 3: Dev’t of domestic alarms compatible and safe for use with hydrogen. This programme will serve to support and inform future policy appraisal in Government and to inform the development of policies and measures to meet UK carbon budgets. The work incorporates the development of ancillary system components including valves and alarms to operate with hydrogen appliances. This work will be managed and coordinated by Arup+, who have been appointed by BEIS as the programme management contractor for the Hy4Heat programme.
