A new initiative in Scotland aims to support the development of green hydrogen projects by offering funding for projects with a production capacity between 5 to 400 megawatts. This initiative, developed in collaboration with Scottish Enterprise, provides organizations the opportunity to apply for match-funding up to £2 million until September 27, 2024. The scheme complements the existing support from the Scottish Government's Hydrogen Innovation Scheme, which has backed 31 projects across the country since 2023. The funding also extends to activities supporting the hydrogen supply chain and storage solutions, crucial for scaling up the industry in response to market demand. Acting minister for climate action, Alasdair Allan, emphasizes Scotland's potential to lead in renewable energy and green hydrogen, highlighting the significance of renewable energy generation in the green hydrogen process. This initiative underscores Scotland's commitment to economic growth through the development of green hydrogen projects, with a strategic focus on leveraging opportunities for domestic use, export, and powering clean energy-intensive industries.
