Striking a balance: planning and implementation considerations for natural gas removal | Simon Witts, M.AIRAH et al

This paper examines the challenges associated with removing natural gas from hospitals and transitioning to all-electric systems. It emphasises the unique energy requirements of hospitals and the need to prioritise patient care and safety over energy efficiency.

The study explores the impact of electrification on healthcare operations, energy consumption, and local infrastructure. It highlights the importance of careful planning and implementation to ensure a smooth transition and maintain system resilience. The findings provide valuable insights into the considerations and steps involved in removing natural gas from hospitals.
