Are hydrogen boilers the future?

It’s thought that hydrogen-ready boilers will be rolled out in the coming years, likely from 2025 and beyond, to coincide with the proposed gas boiler ban in new build properties. The major advantage of a hydrogen-ready boiler is that it can continue to use natural gas until hydrogen gas is available.
