@Lottie_dolls @WES1919 @Lottie_Dolls you might be interested to read about this development following on from your question last week https://t.co/MqYcNiakmp

Update from @Lottie_dolls:We showed our visitors the cooker! It looks like a normal cooker, but it uses hydrogen! The only difference you will see when using one of these is the colour of the flame on the hob, it burns orange on this appliance! #WESLottieTour #TEWeek21 @WES1919

[Claire Spencer (She/Her) @CSpencerNGN]

@Lottie_dolls @WES1919 Great question! Like methane, hydrogen is odourless. Currently we add an odour to the natural gas to create the smell that you would identify as gas for safety reasons

[Claire Spencer (She/Her) @CSpencerNGN]

Update from @Lottie_dolls:This afternoon I reported the NOMs performance (there so many acronyms!).NOMs (short for Network Output Measures!)uses complex maths to calculate the Monetised Risk of the assets that the company operate today and in the future #WESLottieTour @wes1919
