CO2 Emissions of gas hobs vs. induction hobs in Italy (from Journal of Cleaner production)

CO2 Emissions of gas hobs vs. electric induction hobs
- Gas hob emission 1,050 / induction hob emission 1,590 = 1.51
- CO2 emissions Break-Even Point Gas vs. Induction is:
315 / 1.51 = 208 g CO2eq /kWh → equivalent to ~70% of electric power generated by renewable energy sources
A necessary condition for an induction hob to generate lower CO2 emissions than a gas hob is that the electricity is produced with a % of renewable sources (or nuclear energy) greater than 70%.
Countries that have less than 70% renewable energy pollute more if they use electric induction hobs than gas.
High efficiency burners
ESG Performance - Environment Hydrogen: project Hy4Heat
The Hy4Heat project aims to establish whether it is technically possible, safe and convenient to replace natural gas (methane) with 100% hydrogen in residential and commercial buildings and gas appliances. The Hy4Heat project is financed by BEIS, (the UK governments Department for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy) and involves ten separate work packages
The SABAF Group, through its subsidiary ARC, is involved in Work Package 4, which covers cooking and heating appliances. ARC has developed and produced the burners that have now been specified on the world's first UKCA Certified ranges of 100% hydrogen hobs and cookers. These have been installed on the cooking appliances Glen Dimpex at HyHome, two purpose built houses demonstrating hydrogen appliances in a 'real life' scenario at Low Thornley, near Gateshead in the North of England
Immediately following the Hy4Heat project, cooking appliances incorporating ARC burners will be specified for the Community Trial involving 300 homes commencing in 2022. Beyond the Community Trial, the UK Government intends to commission a 'Village Trial' with around 2,500 homes in 2025 and a 'Town Trial' (10,000 homes) in the latter part of the decade prior to potentially converting the whole UK gas grid to hydrogen over future years
ARC is involved also in Work Package 5B (Commercial hydrogen gas appliance development) which , includes commercial catering equipment where ARC has developed commercial hob burners for Falcon Foodservice Equipment Ltd
