The article is devoted to the study of the issues of decarbonization of the gas transmission network. The ecological aspects of the transition to hydrogen energetics on the basis of international environmental agreements are investigated. The negative consequences of hydrogen using in gas transmission networks are considered. The technological features of the Power-to-Gas technology have been studied. In the Aspen Plus software package, the authors have developed a model of Power-to-Gas technology used to produce a methane-hydrogen mixture. The balance indicators of the technology operation were determined and optimization calculations were carried out, which made it possible to determine the optimal operating modes.
