Hydrogen from Nuclear

Association (UK HFCA) to explore the potential use of nuclear energy, both
electrical and thermal, to produce zero-carbon hydrogen. The Nuclear
Enabled Hydrogen Working Group will include academics, experts from the
National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL), the law firm Burges Salmon and oil and
gas services company Petrofac. Celia Greaves, chief executive of the UK
HFCA, said: “Hydrogen is too important a part of the UK’s journey to
net zero for us to let up. “The UK HFCA will continue to do all it can,
leading co-ordination with relevant groups to ensure the government
receives consistent, practical and expert advice.” Allan Simpson,
technical lead at the NNL and chair of the group, said: “We will look at
evidence-based advice to widen the understanding of the role of nuclear
hydrogen across the energy system, including in buildings, transport and
industry, as well as specific ways to remove barriers, support net zero
objectives and accelerate use.”
