Revolutionizing Energy Infrastructure: Green Hydrogen Project in the UK
Key Ideas
  • Partnership established to explore the feasibility of a green hydrogen infrastructure project in the UK, focusing on offshore production and transport.
  • Project aligns with the Thames Estuary Growth Board action plan to attract investments and develop the region.
  • Development includes a wind, wave, and solar energy plant offshore, conversion of green hydrogen to liquid state, and transportation to the Thames Estuary for further use.
  • The MoU involves technology assessment, assurance programmes, and the use of approved materials for containing and insulating green liquid hydrogen.
Lloyd’s Register has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with H2Terminals Limited, HiDROGEN, and D3IM to assess the feasibility of a green hydrogen infrastructure project in the UK. The collaboration will focus on floating production and transport of hydrogen, regulatory requirements, safety cases, and risk assessments for developing an offshore island and supply chain in the Thames Estuary and River area. This initiative is part of the Thames Estuary Growth Board action plan to drive investments and development to the region. Plans include an offshore wind, wave, and solar energy plant, converting green hydrogen to liquid form, transportation to the Thames Estuary, and its conversion into electricity and hot water using floating barges. The project also involves technology assessment, development of asset designs, and assurance programmes for floating hydrogen production and energy export systems. Lloyd’s Register, as a key player, highlights the potential for decarbonizing supply chains and fostering economic growth through sustainable logistics networks. H2Terminals emphasizes the increasing demand for green hydrogen and the commitment to low-carbon production targets set by the UK government. This ambitious green hydrogen project aims to revolutionize energy infrastructure, advance sustainable development, and create job opportunities, showcasing the combined expertise of the collaborating parties.
