Lot Information
Lot 1
United Utilities believe that green hydrogen may be able to provide a suitable decarbonisation strategy for our heating requirements at our site in Davyhulme, Manchester. We wish to understand if the market can supply in a first phase up to 35 GWh of green hydrogen per year, ideally via pipeline, with first delivery in 2026. It is likely that any project will be a shortlisted project qualifying under the Hydrogen Business model process run by the UK government. To meet our target first delivery date in 2026, any project must demonstrate progress towards their final investment decision, including evidence e.g. of planning permission and/or grid connections being available or in the process of being obtained.
