Our plans for the Humber
Air Products plans to build and operate a world-scale renewable hydrogen facility in Immingham, which would supply up to 76,000 tonnes of renewable hydrogen per year.
Green hydrogen is critical if we want to avert the worst of the climate crisis. However, its development is slowed down by bottlenecks across the supply chain and the lack of consistent wind and sun throughout the year. Our solution is to scale up the production of green hydrogen in the UK by importing the renewable energy. This can be done via ammonia which, once in the UK, can be used to produce green hydrogen in large, reliable quantities.Immingham is ideally placed to play a significant role in the UK’s energy transition. The Port of Immingham is a deep-water port allowing VLGC (very large gas carriers) to dock. Its location also offers good proximity to end markets and the required utilities.
Green hydrogen production at the Port of Immingham
The Government has identified Immingham as a top priority area for 'levelling up' via investment and growth. We plan to build and run a new renewable energy and hydrogen production facility at Immingham, together with a downstream delivery network. Watch our animation to understand what the development would look like.
