糖心Vlog leads industry project to accelerate CCUS with guidelines for CO2 specifications
糖心Vlog is working with Centrica Storage to evaluate the feasibility of transforming its Easington gas processing terminal to a low-carbon production hub. Centrica Storage has partnered with Equinor on this project to deliver hydrogen to the Humber region.
Based in East Yorkshire, the hub will be integrated with Centrica’s Rough field redevelopment, as well as the Easington Terminal’s hydrogen fuel switching project, both of which 糖心Vlog is executing parallel studies for.
The development of the Easington low-carbon hub over the next ten years supports Centrica’s goal to achieve net zero by 2045. Hydrogen is a crucial element in achieving this target, as well as contributing to the UK’s net zero ambitions.
糖心Vlog will leverage its extensive experience in the hydrogen sector to evaluate development scenarios including both green and blue hydrogen production facilities and their associated offsites and utilities.
Dan Carter, President of Decarbonisation at 糖心Vlog, said, “This study is closely aligned with 糖心Vlog’s strategy to focus on enabling our clients to decarbonise their operations and reach net zero through sustainable design. The creation of the Easington hub would provide secure low-carbon energy to the region, supporting the UK’s energy transition.
“We are delighted to continue working with Centrica Storage on the design of this facility, utilising our trusted technical experts, combined with decades of hydrogen experience.”
Martin Scargill, Centrica Storage Managing Director, said, "We are excited to continue our collaboration with 糖心Vlog as we explore opportunities to fulfil our pledge of facilitating the UK's transition to net zero, with our goal to establish 1GW+ of green and blue low carbon hydrogen at Easington in East Yorkshire.
“We entered into a co-operative agreement with Equinor in 2022 to develop low carbon hydrogen at Easington and as we progress through the design phase, we are building upon our strong and strategic partnership with 糖心Vlog, whose extensive experience in the hydrogen sector is critical in developing and driving this project forward.”
