[en] This work considers the problem of the optimal design of an hydrogen
transmission network. This design problem includes the topology determi-
nation and the dimensioning problem. We define a solution method that
simultaneously looks for the least cost topology of the network and for the
optimal diameter of each pipe. These two problems were generally solved
separately these last years. The application to the case of development of
future hydrogen pipeline networks in France has been conducted on several
urban areas.
