Our trip to the hydrogen homes in Lochem, Netherlands
Hello Hydrogen team had the privilege of travelling to Lochem in the Netherlands to see how hydrogen is already being utilised in 12 homes as part of the world-first pilot using 100% hydrogen boilers. It was a great opportunity to talk to local residents that opted into the trial as well as seeing a hydrogen boiler in action – creating cosy, warm homes on a cold Dutch day.
Latest advice from the experts

Daniel from Arton Plumbing & Heating explains what the future of home heating could look like and how it impacts you.
How can hydrogen gas help with energy bills?
Andy from High Efficiency Heating talks about how we will all have to change the way we heat our homes and the role hydrogen could play in the future.
Alternative options for the future of home heating
To make sure you get the right choice for your home, engineer Andy talks through some possible options before the time comes to switch to a greener alternative.
How much is this going to cost?
In the future, we expect the cost of hydrogen-ready boilers to be similar to the cost of natural gas boilers today. This is because the boiler is much the same with some small changes to make them work with this greener gas.
How is it going to work?
Hydrogen is emerging as a natural replacement for the gas used currently. With only a small modification, as most have already been upgraded to plastic, the existing pipes across the UK will be able transport hydrogen to your home.
Will we have to change the way we heat our homes?
Switching to greener energy sources to heat our homes will be critical for the future of our planet. Thankfully, there will be alternative options available, including hydrogen that can help us reduce our carbon footprint. Let’s work together to create a greener future for our homes!
