Storegga has initiated a four-week public consultation for its Speyside Hydrogen project in Scotland, with the goal of producing green hydrogen to power whisky distilleries and businesses in Moray. Situated in the heart of Scotland's whisky-producing region, the project will utilize the region's renewable energy sources for electrolysis to produce green hydrogen. The project aims to provide 70MW of hydrogen capacity across two phases near Ballindalloch, playing a significant role in helping the whisky industry achieve its Net Zero target by 2040. The first public consultation, open until September 5th, seeks feedback from the local community to refine plans before submission to Moray Council. Neil Hardie, Speyside Hydrogen Opportunity Manager at Storegga, highlights the importance of the project in driving the whisky industry towards a sustainable future. Additionally, Speyside Hydrogen is part of the Scottish Government's Hydrogen Policy Statement and Action Plan, emphasizing the crucial role of low-carbon hydrogen in achieving Scotland's 2045 Net Zero target. Other distilleries in Scotland like Glenkinchie, Orkney, Benromach, and Bruichladdich are also exploring green hydrogen as a means of decarbonization and sustainability.
