EnergyPathways Unveils MESH Development Design for Clean Energy Hub
Key Ideas
- EnergyPathways has selected the MESH Development Design for the Marram Energy Storage Hub, integrating gas production, hydrogen storage, offshore wind, and decarbonised gas power generation to provide clean energy in the UK.
- The initial MESH project development includes the construction of an unmanned offshore platform, production and gas storage wells, pipeline connections, and the repurposing of existing gas facilities with low-emission technologies.
- Future plans for the MESH project involve hydrogen storage, additional gas storage, low carbon energy production, and decarbonised power generation, establishing a central energy hub for integration with other regional energy projects.
- Ben Clube, CEO of EnergyPathways, highlights the strategic role of MESH in the UK's energy transition, emphasizing its potential to provide a secure and reliable supply of low emission energy while moderating international gas prices impact.
EnergyPathways has announced the selection of MESH Development Design for the Marram Energy Storage Hub, a project designed to provide a long-term secure and dependable supply of clean energy in the UK. The project involves integrating gas production, hydrogen storage, offshore wind, and decarbonised gas power generation to establish an energy hub in Barrow-in-Furness, North West England. The initial development phase includes the construction of an unmanned offshore platform, production and storage wells, pipeline connections, and the repurposing of existing gas facilities with low-emission technologies.
Future plans for the MESH project encompass hydrogen storage, additional gas storage, low carbon energy production, and decarbonised power generation. These initiatives aim to create an integrated energy system beyond the initial gas storage and production facility. EnergyPathways CEO, Ben Clube, emphasizes the strategic importance of MESH in the UK's energy transition, highlighting its potential to provide a reliable supply of low emission energy and mitigate the impact of international gas prices on household bills. The project is seen as a way to capitalize on regional energy resources and repurpose decommissioned gas infrastructure to support the UK's energy transition goals.
