Work set to begin on $67 million hydrogen plant in Milford Haven
In the UK, Wales.UK reported that A MAJOR new hydrogen production facility worth around $67 million is expected to begin construction in Milford Haven later this year, marking another step in Pembrokeshire’s transition towards low-carbon energy.
The West Wales Hydrogen project, planned for land at the Impala Terminal within the port of Milford Haven, will transform part of a former oil refinery site into one of the UK’s early commercial-scale hydrogen production facilities, according to the report.
Developers say the plant could create around 60 jobs during construction and support about ten permanent roles once operational, with commissioning currently targeted for early 2028, it added.
The project is being led by MorGen Energy, a Zurich-based company founded in 2021 to develop large-scale green hydrogen projects across Europe.
Once fully operational, the facility is expected to produce around 2,000 tons of hydrogen per year. Developers estimate this could cut more than 15,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually, compared with conventional fossil fuel-based hydrogen production.
