New pipeline will accelerate Scotland’s green hydrogen export potential

Scotland

A Scottish entity promoting Scotland is not so surprising but Bacton in Eastern England is also well placed as we see from the below article.

Scotland’s hydrogen production and export potential could be significantly accelerated with the development of a purpose-built marine pipeline according to a report published today (31 August 2023) by the Net Zero Technology Centre (NZTC).

NZTC’s Hydrogen Backbone Link project explored the critical hydrogen transport infrastructure required to deliver a cost-effective pipeline solution which would position Scotland as a front runner in the development of a pan-European hydrogen infrastructure for export.

The project, which received funding from the Scottish Government’s Energy Transition Fund (ETF) and match funding from industry, examined the repurposing of existing oil and gas infrastructure before determining that a new purpose-built marine pipeline link to Europe is the optimal route to market for Scotland’s green hydrogen.
