In the UK, Fuel Cells Works reported that U.S.-based industrial gas company Air Products has scrapped its green hydrogen terminal project at the Port of Immingham, in the UK. Despite receiving planning approval in February, the company has now confirmed that the absence of firm policy support and financial backing from the UK government made the project untenable.
The Immingham Green Energy Terminal would have imported green ammonia from Air Products’ flagship 2.2GW NEOM project in Saudi Arabia and cracked it back into hydrogen. It was also slated to include a 300MW domestic hydrogen production facility. Combined, the infrastructure would have produced 76,000 tons of hydrogen annually, according to the report.
The project, developed in partnership with Associated British Ports (ABP), was expected to create 1,400 jobs in the Humber region, the report added.
