The state-of-the-art hydrogen production facility will be located in Bradford and will be one of the largest hubs for producing hydrogen nationwide.<\/p>\n
Hygen is collaborating with N-Gen\u00a0to deliver the hydrogen production facility, which promises to generate enough hydrogen fuel to significantly decarbonise transport and industry.<\/p>\n
Jamie Burns, Director at Hygen, commented on the development: \u201cThe granting of planning permission is a significant step in the development of a facility which will provide enormous benefits to the people of Bradford and the surrounding area.<\/p>\n
\u201cAlong with our partners, we have worked tirelessly to develop these plans, which will provide a blueprint for how complex projects like this can be delivered, boosting the hydrogen and green economies of the UK.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hydrogen serves as a versatile fuel capable of substituting natural gas in heating and industrial operations, as well as replacing diesel in heavy-duty vehicles such as buses, trains, and trucks.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s more, hydrogen produces no carbon when burned, making it the ideal energy source as the UK strives to battle climate change.<\/p>\n
The UK Government recognises this potential and has recently announced major funding to develop the UK\u2019s hydrogen industry.<\/a><\/p>\n
