Approximately 37% of CO2 emissions in the UK come from heating across residential and industrial settings, with 8 out of 10 homes using natural gas as the energy source. Hydrogen has been identified as a potential zero carbon or low carbon energy carrier, which could help the UK reach its goal of becoming a net zero carbon economy. High profile projects such as HyDeploy, have shown the potential of blending hydrogen with the current natural gas supply, thus allowing hydrogen to be used in domestic heating. In this project we propose to examine the feasibility of using a new Raman-based instrument, exploiting the properties of microstructured optical fibres, to measure blends of natural gas and hydrogen, enabling hydrogen to be introduced as a low carbon energy carrier into the UK national gas grid. This technology is being developed by the UK team of IS-Instruments Ltd, Optical Research Centre at the University of Southampton and Jacobs Clean Energy. This game changing technology is expected enable hydrogen to be implemented within the gas network, as well providing direct commercial gains the wider UK economy.

英国约 37% 的二氧化碳排放量来自住宅和工业环境的供暖，十分之八的家庭使用天然气作为能源。氢被认为是一种潜在的零碳或低碳能源载体，可以帮助英国实现成为净零碳经济体的目标。 HyDeploy 等备受瞩目的项目已显示出将氢气与当前天然气供应混合的潜力，从而使氢气可用于家庭供暖。在这个项目中，我们建议研究使用基于拉曼的新型仪器的可行性，利用微结构光纤的特性来测量天然气和氢气的混合物，使氢气能够作为低碳能源载体引入英国国家燃气网。该技术由 IS-Instruments Ltd、南安普顿大学光学研究中心和 Jacobs Clean Energy 的英国团队开发。这项改变游戏规则的技术预计将使氢能在天然气网络中得到应用，并为更广泛的英国经济提供直接的商业收益。
