Britain will build its first hydrogen fueled homes by April, offering public a glimpse of the future
The first U.K. houses where appliances including boilers, stoves and ovens are fueled exclusively by hydrogen are due to be opened by April, with authorities hoping the buildings will provide the public with “a glimpse into the potential home of the future.”
The project to develop the two semi-detached properties has received £250,000 (around $347,175) in funding from the U.K. government’s Hy4Heat program.
