HyNet: Delivering low carbon hydrogen at scale

Dr Christopher Manson-Whitton, Director, Progressive Energy Limited

HyNet is the UK’s leading industrial decarbonisation cluster, integrating carbon capture and storage with production, distribution, storage and end use of hydrogen at scale. This project will deliver low carbon hydrogen from 2025 and by 2030 will save 10 million tonnes of carbon dioxide and deliver enough hydrogen to replace almost half of the region’s current natural gas demand. This presentation will provide an overview of the project and how it provides a template to deliver a key element of our 2050 obligations.

Dr Chris Manson-Whitton, Director, Progressive Energy is an energy expert with a particular focus on taking innovative technologies from concept to deployment. Much of Chris’ work has been driving forward projects in the low carbon energy sector, notably as leading development of HyNet’s low-cost low-carbon hydrogen production at Stanlow, and the delivery of the HyDeploy project which is blending hydrogen into the UK natural gas distribution system. He has also headed up Progressive’s waste and renewables developments, in particular focused on production of low carbon fuels. He has a strong technical background, combined with skills in forming consortia and bringing stakeholders together to enable project delivery.

I-SEE Zoom webinars are free and open for all to attend

In the wake of the Paris agreement, countries across the globe are pledging to reduce their emissions to combat climate change. Various nations have now committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by the mid-21st century, with European countries taking the lead with highly ambitious decarbonisation targets and innovative pathways to achieve this goal. The UK was the first G7 country to enshrine the commitment to reach Net Zero by 2050 into law. Furthermore, the UK is no longer under the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) and has recently launched the UK ETS as a key cornerstone decarbonisation policy to help achieve this.

BIEE’s first Energy Webinar in 2021 will discuss carbon policy necessary for achieving Net Zero and the role of instruments such as the UK ETS. Dr. Danial Sturge, Energy Policy Advisor at Energy Systems Catapult, will discuss his work on approaches to carbon policy in decarbonising the whole economy. Whilst Vivienne Geard, BEIS’s Deputy Director for Carbon, Hydrogen and Industry Analysis, will focus on her team’s work on establishing the UK ETS and its role in decarbonising the economy.
