emissions at its Grangemouth, Scotland integrated refining and
petrochemicals complex. The capital-intensive plan includes
several emissions-reducing investments, including CCS and increased

nation is developing several projects and partnerships to boost
green H2
In Q3 2021, bp, ADNOC and Masdar signed an agreement
to develop low-carbon H2
hubs in both the UK and the United
supplies to their
Arab Emirates (UAE). This agreement includes decarbonizing
oil and gas operations, increasing green H2
respective transportation sectors, increasing the use of CCS,
among others.
In Teesside, bp is developing the HyGreen Teesside and
H2Teesside projects. The HyGreen Teesside project includes
the construction of a large-scale H2
production facility. bp
plans to take FID on the project in 2023. If built, the facility's
goal is to produce up to 500 MWe (MW electrical input) of
H2
MWe of H2
production by 2030. The project's initial phase will see 60
production, which will be scaled-up to 500 MWe
by the end of the decade.
Also in Teesside, bp aims to produce 1 GW of blue-H2
and CO2
. The facility would use the H2
production
by 2030. The project would convert natural gas into
H2
for various applications,
simultaneously capturing and storing up to 2 MMtpy

bp has also partnered with Daimler Truck AG to build 25
H2 fueling stations in the UK by 2030. These H2
tions would be geared toward fueling heavy freight trucks. To
help decarbonize the freight transport industry, Daimler Truck
AG plans to offer only CO2
-neutral trucks by 2039.

For example, INEOS
plans to build a 100-MW electrolyzer
at its site in Cologne
to produce green ammonia, a
20-MW electrolyzer in Norway,
and additional projects
in Belgium and France.

fuel the nearby Keadby Hydrogen power station to provide
power to the region. Equinor plans to award the engineering,
procurement and construction contract by the end of this year.
FID is scheduled for 2023. If built, Equinor plans to deliver H2
to the Keadby power station in 2028.
Cadent's HyNet North West project's scope includes the
production, storage and distribution of H2
in Northwest England.
Once operational, the system is forecast to reduce CO2
emissions by 10 MMtpy by 2030.
Lastly, Vertex Hydrogen Ltd., a JV between Essar and Progressive
