Teesside International Airport Leads the Way with Hydrogen Refuelling Station
Key Ideas
  • Plans for a new hydrogen refuelling station at Teesside International Airport have been submitted to Darlington Borough Council as part of the Tees Valley hydrogen transport hub.
  • The station, funded by the UK Government and led by Element 2, will support airport vehicles, delivery trucks, vans, and other vehicles fueled by hydrogen, addressing the increasing demand for clean energy in transportation.
  • Teesside Airport aims to become operationally net zero by 2030, with the hydrogen refuelling station being a key component in their efforts to pioneer clean energy fuels and technologies.
  • The project, supported by Innovate UK, highlights the region's commitment to sustainable practices and positions the airport as a leader in embracing green energy solutions for a cleaner, healthier future.
The plans for a new hydrogen refuelling station at Teesside International Airport signal a significant step towards sustainable transportation in the UK. As part of the Tees Valley hydrogen transport hub, this station, one of four planned in the region, will cater to airport vehicles, delivery trucks, vans, and other vehicles fueled by hydrogen. The initiative, funded by the UK Government and led by Element 2, aims to meet the growing demand for clean energy solutions in the transport sector. Teesside Airport's goal to achieve operational net zero status by 2030 aligns with the construction of the hydrogen refuelling station, marking a pivotal moment in the airport's efforts to promote green energy. With a focus on innovation and sustainability, the airport management envisions a future where 5G technology and clean energy fuels coexist to enhance operations and reduce environmental impact. The support from Innovate UK underscores the importance of such projects in driving forward sustainable practices in the region. Tees Valley Mayor Ben Houchen's endorsement of the hydrogen station reflects the wider enthusiasm for transitioning to cleaner and safer industries, with a particular emphasis on sustainable aviation fuel production. The airport's multifaceted approach, spanning from business expansions to green energy initiatives, showcases a holistic commitment to a greener future.
