The ETN Hydrogen Gas Turbines report was issued by ETN, as part of the activities of our Hydrogen Working Group. The report was directed by Peter Kutne (DLR) with the support of the ETN secretariat.

This report was prepared by the ETN Project Board, which provides an independent support to new initiatives or issues brought to the ETN platform. The report includes recommendations on key research topics of gas turbine development based on the current market outlook and the users’ requirements.

The summary report “Addressing the combustion challenges of hydrogen addition to natural gas” led by ETN’s Combustion task force within Hydrogen Working Group sums up the findings and conclusions as well as presents recommendations from a larger study, which aims to facilitate the introduction of gas turbines firing the full range of hydrogen and natural gas blends to deliver heat & power.

Please note that the larger study will be available for ETN members only.

The techno economic case study “Hydrogen Deployment in centralised power generation” was led by ETN’s Young Engineers Committee. It is an evaluation of the technical feasibility and economics of hydrogen utilisation for large-scale, centralised power generation.

The full report “Addressing the combustion challenges of hydrogen addition to natural gas” was written by ETN’s Hydrogen combustion task force. It presents the findings, conclusions and recommendation, aiming to facilitate the introduction of gas turbines firing the full range of hydrogen and natural gas blends to deliver heat and power.
