Equinor triples low-carbon hydrogen production plans in UK to 1.8 GW

摘要

Norway’s state-controlled energy company Equinor has upped its plans for developing low-carbon hydrogen in the UK, tripling its target to 1.8 GW of production and aiming to deliver with partners over half of the UK’s 5 GW goal by 2030. Equinor plans to add 1.2 GW of hydrogen production from natural gas with carbon capture and storage to the 600 MW already planned at the H2H Saltend project in Humberside, it said June 29. The additional production will be principally used to feed the Keadby hydrogen power station which it is developing with utility SSE Thermal, it said in a statement.
