Johnson Matthey, a company deeply rooted in history dating back to the industrial revolution, has emerged as a key player in Britain's transition to clean energy. Through its expertise in catalysis, particularly highlighted by the acquisition of ICI Synetix's catalyst technology in 2002, Johnson Matthey is driving the UK clean-tech revolution from its facilities in Teesside. The company's investments in catalysis experiments, including the Fischer-Tropsch process for sustainable aviation fuel production, showcase its commitment to sustainable energy solutions. While not directly involved in producing sustainable aviation fuel or low-carbon hydrogen, Johnson Matthey's catalytics enable the conversion of various feedstocks into syngas, which can be further processed into hydrogen, methanol, ammonia, and other essential chemicals. The company's CEO, Maurits van Tol, emphasizes the importance of commercializing both blue and green hydrogen technologies to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. Despite previous setbacks in the electric car battery sector, Johnson Matthey's core competence in catalytics has positioned it as a leader in the clean energy transition. Leveraging its heritage and expertise, the company aims to capitalize on the UK's technological advancements to become a major exporter of clean-tech solutions and create high-end job opportunities domestically. Johnson Matthey's journey from pioneering catalytic converters for reducing vehicle emissions to spearheading innovations in sustainable fuel production and hydrogen technologies underscores its pivotal role in shaping Britain's clean energy landscape.
