UK's First Low-Carbon Hydrogen Plant for Economic Growth and Decarbonisation
Key Ideas
  • EET Hydrogen partners with ENKA for a low carbon hydrogen production plant in Cheshire, UK.
  • UK government provides funding for HPP1, the nation's first large-scale low-emission hydrogen project within the HyNet Cluster.
  • The plant will have a 350 MW production capacity, capturing 600,000 tonnes of CO2 annually, equivalent to removing 250,000 cars from the road.
  • The initiative showcases progress in the UK's hydrogen industry, aiming to boost the economy, protect jobs, and advance decarbonisation in North West England's industrial sector.
Essar Energy Transition's EET Hydrogen has collaborated with ENKA to construct a cutting-edge low carbon hydrogen production plant at the Stanlow Manufacturing Complex in Cheshire, UK. The UK government has allocated funding support for HPP1, establishing it as the country's first significant low-emission hydrogen project within the HyNet Cluster. With a 350 MW production capacity, the plant is set to capture 600,000 tonnes of CO2 annually, which is equivalent to removing nearly 250,000 cars from the road. This milestone not only signifies a significant development for the HPP1 initiative but also represents a major advancement for the UK's hydrogen industry, with a focus on driving economic growth, preserving jobs, and accelerating decarbonisation efforts in the industrial sector of North West England. The partnership and government support are crucial steps in promoting sustainable energy practices and environmental conservation in the region.
