Dispatchable power for a hydrogen future
A phased model that delivers dispatchable power now, with the hydrogen infrastructure to decarbonise it built in.
We build what the system needs now, while developing the hydrogen infrastructure to decarbonise it.
Generation
Dual-fuel power stations deliver dispatchable power from day one, replacing ageing thermal plant due to retire in the mid-2030s.
Electrolysers
When renewable generation exceeds demand, co-located electrolysers use surplus electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen.
Storage
The hydrogen is held in solution-mined underground salt caverns, each as large as St Paul’s Cathedral, ready to fuel our power stations when needed.
Together, these turn surplus renewable power into low-carbon dispatchable power when the grid needs it most.
Our projectsWhat our approach delivers
Day one
Dispatchable power from first operation, with dual-fuel capability built in.
Two phases
One route from dispatchable power today to low-carbon hydrogen in future.
112
Olympic swimming pools - the volume capacity of one underground salt cavern.
