The UK’s hydrogen sector is at a crossroads

To unlock its potential for decarbonisation and economic growth, we need a clear vision and robust public education.

Our latest report, “Removing Barriers to Re-energise the Hydrogen Sector,” in collaboration with Charles Russell Speechlys LLP, dives into the challenges stalling progress and outlines actionable solutions.

Key insights

  • A unified vision is critical to align government, industry, and investors, focusing on high-impact applications like industrial decarbonisation and heavy transport.
  • Public awareness remains low. Transparent campaigns are essential to demystify hydrogen’s role, safety, and benefits—paving the way for community support and project success.

With ambitious targets like 10GW of low-carbon hydrogen by 2030, the UK can lead the global hydrogen race. But stalled progress risks squandering this opportunity. We must create a shared vision, accelerate investment, and empower communities to embrace hydrogen’s role in a greener future.
