The Evolution Hydrogen Peterhead (EHP) project is sited for it's access to renewable energy, international export facilities, existing energy and oil and gas infrastructure, employment centers with strong engineering and manufacturing credentials, and areas identified as Industrial Green Transition Zones.
809.6 mt/day of 98% pure hydrogen from the Peterhead and Peterhead Site 2 plants
303.6 mt/day production from all five production blocks
506 mt/day production to complement the Peterhead plant
Each plant consists of five 101.2 mt/day net hydrogen production blocks
The demand for hydrogen in the UK is expected to surge dramatically over the next decade, driven by favorable market conditions and the urgent need for rapid decarbonization. In the EU, the goal to produce or import 10 million tonnes of renewables-based hydrogen annually by 2030 is a key strategy to reduce reliance on Russian natural gas. Hydrogen is emerging as a critical fuel for decarbonizing hard-to-abate industries, such as steel, aligning with major political priorities.
New legislation in both the UK and EU is being introduced to support hydrogen adoption, with cross-border funding allocated to infrastructure projects, including the development of new hydrogen pipelines, to bolster energy security. These trends position EHG’s initial sites to capitalize on a rapidly growing market.
EHP is located at a point where Scotland’s new fixed and floating offshore wind energy will first arrive onshore. Wind energy will be paired with energy storage. Our plant could allow some wind projects to come online prior to the buildout of the transmission grid for domestic and export markets.
Our high-capacity production plants are unmatched in the industry. By 2028, we will produce 101.2 metric tons per day (mt/d) of 98% pure green hydrogen at our plant, and by 2029, this will increase to 303.6 mt/d from our first Peterhead site. Our efforts will play a critical role in helping the United Kingdom meet its 2050 net zero emissions targets.
For efficient market access, our Peterhead sites are located less than eight kilometers from the international export port of Peterhead. Peterhead is poised to be the epicentre of all new hydrogen infrastructure such as electrical energy and hydrogen storage, pipelines within Scotland, and pipelines internationally in the EU.
EHP is in negotiations for a fully comprehensive logistics management agreement.
It is anticipated that the hydrogen infrastructure will become more developed as hydrogen becomes more widely used and the world transitions to clean energy. EHP will utilise the new pipelines planned within Scotland, under the sea, and from Scotland to Germany.
