TYNDP 2024

The Hydrogen and
Natural Gas TYNDP

Hydrogen and natural gas
TYNDP 2024

 For the second time, the TYNDP assesses hydrogen together with natural gas and biomethane. The European gas system continues to play its role as one of the main infrastructure elements to achieving the European energy and climate targets. Building on and in complement to this network, hydrogen offers unique opportunities to integrate renewables and help decarbonise hard-to-abate sectors’ energy use.

ENTSOG’s TYNDP 2024 covers the usual scenarios, projects and system assessment. This latter exercise now contains an extensive analysis of the needs of the future hydrogen network – the Hydrogen Infrastructure Gaps Identification. The modelling approach used is innovative, interlinking the hydrogen and electricity markets under a new, comprehensive methodology.

Joint long-term planning the two systems’ transmission, storage, terminals, and novel infrastructure components takes advantage of decades of investments made in the natural gas network, with its cost-effectiveness in moving and storing energy over long distances in Europe. This would contribute to supporting the decarbonisation of the overall energy system in a cost-effective, secure, and achievable way.
