bp has made significant progress in its H2Teesside project by signing a statement of principles with the UK government and initiating front-end engineering design (FEED) contracts. The collaboration with DESNZ and Technip Energies paves the way for final negotiations on a low-carbon hydrogen agreement in Teesside. The project, targeting 1.2 GW of hydrogen production, is a key part of bp's energy transition strategy. The integrated blue hydrogen production facility and pipeline infrastructure are expected to capture and store over two million tonnes of CO2 annually, contributing to the UK's decarbonisation goals. Costain's role in designing the 31km pipeline network highlights the focus on creating a robust hydrogen distribution system. The project's emphasis on job creation, skills development, and economic regeneration in Teesside aligns with its broader goal of supporting the local community and industry. With a strong commitment to decarbonisation, the project aims to be a catalyst for the development of a low-carbon hydrogen economy in the UK.
