Hydrogen Appliance Testing

AGA’s specialised Hydrogen Testing Facility is a state of the art laboratory which is capable of testing gas appliances on 100% hydrogen or any blend of natural gas and hydrogen. The laboratory has assisted manufacturers to find the maximum blend of hydrogen in natural gas that their appliances can safely tolerate and also develop 100% hydrogen ready appliances. 

Since the establishment of the AGA Hydrogen Testing facility in 2018, the hydrogen appliance testing and development has increased exponentially. We are pleased to see our members and manufacturers embracing the exciting transition to hydrogen in line with Australia’s net zero targets.
