For countries to achieve net-zero, hydrogen has an important role to play. Transport is responsible for nearly a third of the country’s total emissions and while the EV market is growing, many vehicle operators with longer-distance requirements are looking to hydrogen as an alternative.
Last summer, the UK Government announced a £500 million (€571 million) injection to support building the UK’s first regional hydrogen transport and storage network.
While there are six refuelling hubs currently in the UK, five more are scheduled to open by 2027, with plans for up to 30 new hubs by the end of the decade[1].
In addition to refuelling hubs for commercial vehicles, an increasing number of industry sectors across the country are integrating their own supply of hydrogen as a power source.
From bus operators through to industrial manufacturers as well as construction companies, hydrogen can help organisations achieve their net-zero ambitions, as well as providing a back-up to reinforce energy security.
With a current lack of hydrogen pipelines and limited infrastructure to create hydrogen on-site, road transport is the flexible option.
