Meld Energy intends to invest £180 million in a new facility at Saltend, Humber

The project utilises locally produced ‘green hydrogen’ to provide more sustainable transport options for the communities

The 600MW facility will produce 240 tonnes of green hydrogen per day

Gas industry leaders have committed to using hydrogen to provide 20-35% of the UK’s energy demand by 2050

The mayor believes it can become the “most significant location in Germany for hydrogen”

The parent company of household brands such as Kleenex is partnering with Octopus Energy’s green hydrogen joint venture for two of its UK factories

Gas is being replaced with hydrogen for the manufacturing of some tissues, toilet paper and nappies

The new government package includes commitments to carbon capture and storage, offshore wind, green hydrogen, renewable electricity and energy efficiency

The government has been asked to confirm that no new gas grid connections will be permitted under the Future Homes Standard

Some organisations have said that these boilers would facilitate the continued use of gas
