Enbridge, FortisBC Eye Using BC Gas Pipes for Hydrogen
Enbridge Inc. and FortisBC Energy Inc. are funding a study aiming to examine how hydrogen can be delivered safely and reliably using the existing gas pipeline infrastructure of British Columbia.
Targeting to help develop a low carbon energy economy in the province, the study will look at the percentage of hydrogen that can be transported safely through gas pipeline infrastructure, such as Enbridge's Westcoast natural gas transmission system, as well as FortisBC's gas transmission and distribution systems. The study also has contributions from the British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation, Enbridge said in a news release Wednesday.
