Top 10 Green Hydrogen Projects10 May 2025 13:51
Below is a concise top ten list of UK green hydrogen projects above 50 MW, incorporating (Ranked by electrolyser capacity, the list notes ITM Power involvement, using verified data from HAR1, HAR2, and industry sources as of May 10, 2025.
1. MESH-H2 (Irish Sea) – EnergyPathways PLC, 640 MW, 2.8 TWh storage. Grid-scale hydrogen via wind-powered electrolysis. Operational 2027. No ITM involvement.
2. Kintore (Aberdeenshire) – Statera, 500 MW. Industrial/transport hydrogen. Operational ~2026–2028. No confirmed ITM role.
3. Grangemouth (Scotland) – RWE, 200 MW (to 600 MW). Supplies INEOS, cuts emissions. Operational 2029. Potential ITM role (RWE supplier shortlist).
4. Humber H2ub (Humber) – Uniper, 120 MW (to 200 MW). Industrial decarbonization. Operational 2029. Confirmed ITM role (six 20 MW Poseidon modules).
5. Fawley (Hampshire) – Hynamics/ExxonMobil, 120 MW. Refinery decarbonization. Operational ~2027–2029. No ITM confirmed.
6. Pembroke (Wales) – RWE, 110 MW (to GW-scale). Local industry supply. Operational late 2020s. Potential ITM role.
7. Kemsley (Kent) – Lhyfe, 80 MW. Industrial supply. Operational post-2027. No ITM confirmed.
8. Green Hydrogen for Glasgow (Scotland) – ScottishPower, 80 MW. Industrial/transport. Operational late 2020s. Potential ITM role.
9. Green Hydrogen for Scotland – Shell/Linde/ITM, 60 MW. Multi-sector supply. Operational late 2020s. Confirmed ITM role.
10. Cromarty (Scotland) – ScottishPower/Storegga, 100 MW (speculative; 10.6 MW now). Distillery/HGV supply. Operational 2026 (initial). No ITM confirmed.
ITM Power leads in Humber and Scotland projects. Total capacity ~2.01 GW, supporting the UK’s 5 GW green hydrogen goal by 2030.
