Accelerate
the change.
Connecting people, places and projects, to drive the development of hydrogen infrastructure.
The South West has a rich engineering and energy history, and is home to a powerful cluster of leading aerospace and transport businesses.
These dynamic organisations have joined forces to create Hydrogen South West, an infrastructure ecosystem that brings the benefits of hydrogen to the South West of England.
The collaboration creates links between supply and demand centres in the region, and enables cross-sector partnerships that will drive the development of hydrogen infrastructure and technology.
Why Hydrogen South West?
Creating powerful partnerships
Developing, rolling out, and running on a new fuel is complex, and there are many interdependencies between projects. For one to succeed, others must be in place to support and multiple industries must work together. Hydrogen South West is the connector, creating partnerships among those who make, move and use hydrogen.
Attracting investment
The partnership is a one-stop shop for delivering growth and securing investment in hydrogen in the South West. Cutting across sectors, we can demonstrate the cohesion and capabilities that make the South West the perfect place to invest and lead the way in decarbonisation.
Upskilling the region
Key to this effort is enhancing skills and delivering new job opportunities to ensure a sustainable future. By driving investment and innovation in decarbonising technology, the South West is poised to become a centre of excellence for hydrogen expertise.
Powering the energy transition
Decarbonising our economy is top of the government’s agenda. Hydrogen South West presents a viable opportunity to accelerate the development of crucial technology and infrastructure to deliver on this crucial goal.
A few words from our chair, Andy Clarke…
“I am absolutely thrilled to have been elected as the new Chair of HSW. Government has set ambitious targets for UK plc to achieve net zero by 2050 at the latest, and our members are ready to play their part in accelerating the change.”
