Celtic Freeport hydrogen plant given green light

March 19, 2026 |

In the UK, Business News Wales reported that the Celtic Freeport has welcomed MorGen Energy’s decision to approve the final investment decision (FID) for a green hydrogen production facility in the Milford Haven Tax Site.

The West Wales Hydrogen project is among the first supported by the UK Government’s flagship Hydrogen Allocation Round (HAR1) to reach this milestone, according to the report.

With construction expected to begin in 2026 and commissioning planned for early 2028, the plant will produce around 2,000 tons of low carbon hydrogen each year in line with the UK’s Low Carbon Hydrogen Standard.

The hydrogen will support various applications, including port decarbonization, industrial heating, manufacturing and use as a chemical feedstock, according to the report.
