Boilers that can be converted to using hydrogen are to be exempt.


Like theres ever gonna be a domestic hydrogen supply€¦

Seriously, if we *do* go down the route of manufacturing hydrogen Im
pretty sure itll be reserved for uses where rapid refuelling is required,
not squandered on domestic heating.


Rapid/load balancing can be handled by other means. Long term storage
for winter is the real problem in the UK. Hydrogen can be stored.
