UKEn plans to apply for government Revenue Support for at least one of its hydrogen storage projects in the forthcoming Allocation Round, currently scheduled by DESNZ to commence in Q3 this year, post General Election.
Whilst UKOG's proposed hydrogen storage projects are at an early engineering design stage and there can be no certainty they will receive government Revenue Support, the Company is committed to furthering these key strategic UK infrastructure projects which remain a key part of the Company's overall future strategy. The Company expects to receive further LOS in due course.
The full LOS is available on the Company's website www.ukogplc.com .
Stephen Sanderson UKOG's Chief Executive commented;
"We are delighted that SEEL, the UK based energy transition subsidiary of one of Japan's most significant global trading houses, Sumitomo Corporation, has recognised the strategic significance and potential material future value of our planned hydrogen storage projects. Their LOS will help ensure we meet the application criteria in DESNZ's forthcoming Hydrogen Storage Revenue Support Allocation Round, a key step towards delivering our projects. We look forward to continued and fruitful cooperation with SEEL/Sumitomo and to securing further LOS from other potential storage users and investors"
