The UK government has announced an open consultation to solicit views on the best legislative approach to eliminating costs associated with the Climate Change Levy (CCL) for electricity utilized in the production of electrolytic hydrogen. This move follows the government's pledge at the Spring Statement 2025 to remove CCL costs from electricity used in electrolysis processes for hydrogen production. The consultation, which is open until 7th May, aims to address how CCL costs can be minimized without compromising environmental benefits. CEO Emma Guthrie of the Hydrogen Energy Association has expressed appreciation for the government's commitment to this initiative, particularly in removing CCL costs from electrolytic hydrogen production. She highlighted the significance of this decision, a cause that the association's Green Hydrogen Working Group has been actively advocating for.
