Ban the use of hydrogen as a replacement for natural gas for heating and cooking

Petition Details

Hydrogen collects under roofs and overhangs, where it forms an explosion hazard; buildings...should have good ventilation...strong ignition suppression systems...roofs designed to be safely blown away from the rest of the structure in an explosion.

Additional Information

Explosion risks from hydrogen piped into buildings applies to far more than homes. It will also involve schools, hospitals, high-rise flats, shops, offices, public venues, industrial premises with other hazards, etc..

Millions of £s are being spent by the Government on this policy, to achieve zero-emissions by 2050. It is a recommendation from the CCC which has statutory duties to advise on policy.
The singular reason is to make use of otherwise wasted electricity from an overcapacity of wind and solar power.
