Net Hero Podcast – National Gas launches with net zero vision

This week's net hero podcast is all about gas.

The launch of National Gas means the UK's gas network is now separate from the National Grid, nothing changes in terms of pricing or the delivery of gas but could it herald gas becoming an enabler of net zero?

According to National Gas CEO Jon Butterworth, gas has more than a place as a future energy source for net zero, as it can offer a way to use green hydrogen for power. Also he says gas pipes can offer heating in places electric heat pumps can't reach, so is gas actually a more equitable source of energy?

Listen in as we talk though the future of gas in this country and what it means for our net zero target.
