We run an annual Gas Network Innovation Competition (NIC) to help stimulate innovation in gas transmission and distribution networks. Through the Gas NIC, Network Licensees can apply for up to £18m to fund innovative projects that could deliver low carbon and environmental benefits to customers. This document explains which projects we have selected for funding this year.
This was the first year of the Gas NIC and there were six applications. We have selected four projects for funding. This decision is consistent with the recommendations of our independent expert panel.
