MorGen Energy has made significant progress with its West Wales green hydrogen project, securing a Low Carbon Hydrogen Agreement with the LCCC for their 20MW facility in Milford Haven. This agreement, part of the Hydrogen Allocation Round 1, along with a Grant Funding Agreement, signifies a major step towards supporting industrial power, chemical feedstock production, and decarbonization efforts in challenging sectors in the UK. The project is among the first three in the country to achieve this milestone, highlighting the UK's commitment to the green hydrogen sector. MorGen Energy's ambitious target of 3 GW production capacity across Europe by 2030 demonstrates their commitment to sustainable energy solutions. Slaughter and May's legal support, led by General Counsel Christine Yassa, further emphasizes the significance of this pioneering project in advancing green hydrogen initiatives.
