UK shelves plan for country’s biggest hydrogen home heating trial

Government decision to stop the project is a blow to efforts to use the gas in the move to net zero

@richardknott I thought that had already happened?
@CrackedWindscreen two others had been canned and there’s been recommendations after recommendations to stop it, but looks like it’s finally been officially dropped.

@richardknott ah, gotcha. Thanks.

I do wonder how this affects the Vauxhall plant in Ellesmere Port as that was going to use hydrogen and piggy back off the trial near there.

@CrackedWindscreen Not heard of that, having a quick google looks like it was already delayed significantly.

Does huge hydrogen project face two year-plus delay? - Liverpool Business News

A multi-billion pound project close to the River Mersey that will supply hydrogen to businesses across the North West is facing a two-and-a-half year delay

@richardknott ah, thanks. I had no idea it was part of a bigger project for the area. Looks like their 2030 green plans have evaporated at Stellantis then.
