Decarbonisation knowledge centre

As the UK works towards its net zero target, the energy sector is a primary focus when it comes to decarbonisation.

It's a truly exciting juncture for the gas sector

With more biomethane plants connecting to the gas grid than ever before and groundbreaking hydrogen gas trials underway, our combined opportunity to make a difference is vast.

While exciting, we also know that there’s an awful lot going on within the energy industry at present - decarbonisation or otherwise - and if we’re to work efficiently, effectively and at minimal cost to consumers, collaboration is vital.

We've established a dedicated decarbonisation team at Xoserve, tasked with doing just that. Acting as an impartial partner across the industry, we’re in a unique position to share knowledge and bring industry thinking together as we embark on new territory - together.

Ongoing projects

Whether they’re at consultation, planning or implementation phase, there are plenty of projects underway across the industry. Here are some of the important ones you might want to learn more about:


Planned projects

H100 Fife

Real Time Settlement Methodology (RTSM)

Guarantees of Origin (GoO)
H100 Fife is a groundbreaking neighbourhood trial to supply 300 homes with 100% hydrogen gas. A programme to produce an integrated and flexible settlement methodology for fair billing across the industry. National Gas Transmission's GoO scheme will enable firms to select their preferred type of hydrogen gas and hold certification to guarantee the source.
