The aim of this study is to obtain a better understanding of the potential of biomethane and hydrogen to contribute to the decarbonisation of the EU energy system, the impacts this will have on the gas infrastructure and the extent to which gas network operators and regulators are prepared to cope with these impacts.
This study builds on the findings from the previous gas infrastructure 2050 study, while significantly advancing the provision of quantitative data to the analysis. The three explorative scenarios and assumptions regarding the use of electricity, methane and hydrogen serve to analyse this impact on the gas infrastructure, rather than aiming to forecast the most probable deployment pathway of biomethane and hydrogen in the EU or any Member State.
