PNGRB suggests 5% hydrogen blending for piped household gas
In short
PNGRB suggested adding 5% hydrogen to piped gas for households. The regulator said 5% is the highest commercial mix, not the normal control target.
This matters because it could change how household gas is supplied. The report does not say when the change would happen or where it would start.
