HOUSTON, November 28, 2023<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Honeywell today announced the European launch of its 100% hydrogen-capable diaphragm gas meter. The Honeywell EI5 smart gas meter, which has been successfully piloted in the Netherlands, is part of a broader initiative to align with the region\u2019s goals outlined in the\u00a0European Green Deal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The new gas meter is capable of measuring both hydrogen and natural gas, providing adaptability across the European continent. Once installed, these meters eliminate the need for future replacements, even as networks transition to hydrogen, thereby reducing long-term costs and enhancing operational sustainability. The EI5\u2019s design and functionality have been tested and certified by Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), ensuring their safety, accuracy, and preparedness for the evolving energy landscape.<\/p>\n

\u201cHoneywell\u2019s hydrogen-capable meters are key to facilitating a seamless transition to hydrogen energy across European utility networks,\u201d said Kinnera Angadi, Chief Technology Officer of Smart Energy and Thermal Solutions at Honeywell. \u201cWe\u2019re enhancing operational efficiency with meters that are ready for the future, helping our customers stay ahead in a market that\u2019s swiftly transitioning toward greener energy solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the Netherlands, the gas meters will be delivered to Enexis Group, one of the country\u2019s largest gas distributors, following a pilot project in Wagenborgen. \u00a0This pilot project is transforming residential homes from the 1970s, integrating them into a hydrogen network that includes not only the EI5 gas meters but also a hydrogen central boiler for heating and hot water. Looking ahead, the project aims to pioneer the use of green hydrogen through electrolysis, marking a significant step in sustainable energy usage.<\/p>\n

The\u00a02020 Hydrogen Council report<\/a>\u00a0indicates that hydrogen costs are expected to decrease by 2030, making it competitive with other low-carbon alternatives. This leads large utility distributors like Enexis Group to commit converting their main gas lines to hydrogen within the next three years.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe transition to clean energy is as necessary as it is complex,\u201d said Ruud Busscher, Program Manager for Energy Transit & Hydrogen at Enexis Group. \u201cThis project aims to challenge the way we operate by using an alternative to natural gas. We are finding out how the existing grid will be influenced by hydrogen and what new paths can be taken for a sustainable future.<\/p>\n
