Vertex Hydrogen to supply over 1,000 MW of low-carbon H2 to leading UK industries

Vertex Hydrogen has signed agreements to supply over 1,000 MW of low-carbon H2 to leading industrial names in the region. This is a similar amount of energy that powers a major city like Liverpool, secures the entire initial H2 production capacity of Vertex and enables the vital H2 infrastructure investments in the region. This milestone reflects Vertex’s status as the largest and most advanced low carbon H2 hub in the UK.

The Project will capture some 1.8 MMtpy of CO2 to be stored by the HyNet project to reduce more than 10% of the region’s industrial emissions–the equivalent to taking 750,000 cars off the roads.

The Project will see over £2 B of direct investments in the H2 plant and associated regional H2 transport and storage infrastructure–securing and growing vital jobs in the region.

Joe Seifert, CEO of Vertex Hydrogen, said, “We have always said that Vertex is demand-led from leading industrial companies and we have now signed agreements for over 1000 MW of H2–our entire expected production capacity from the initial phases of our project. This milestone gives us huge confidence in the economics of the project and the long-term demand for low carbon H2 in the coming decades.”
