NEW ENERGY CONSULTATION

The new Government REMA consultation defines numerous barriers to making green hydrogen. The problem is that the Government does not fully recognise all the issues of green hydrogen production. Nowhere does the Government say that Grid electricity will always be too expensive to make economic hydrogen. UK grid electricity is top of the international league for price. Therefore we need local 10MW renewable electricity supplies if we are to succeed. HEA, Energy UK and Renewable UK have pointed to several barriers, for example, planning, storage and expansion of renewable electricity locally.
