Powering a
low carbon future

Leading the hydrogen revolution for a net-zero tomorrow

At the forefront of Essar Energy Transition, EET Hydrogen is pioneering one of the world’s first large-scale low carbon hydrogen production hubs. Anchored in the UK’s North West industrial heartland, we’re building a clean energy ecosystem that will drive industrial decarbonisation, energy security, and economic resilience.

Why low carbon hydrogen?

As the world transitions to cleaner energy, hydrogen and electricity emerge as the key carriers of the future. But not all hydrogen is created equal. Our focus is on low carbon hydrogen – produced with strict CO₂ emissions limits under the UK Government’s Low Carbon Hydrogen Standard.

By enabling clean hydrogen production with carbon capture, we help industries move away from fossil fuels without compromising reliability or scale. This is net-zero at industrial scale, where the impact is measurable, and the benefits are transformative.

Driving impact at scale

We’re not just building infrastructure - we’re future-proofing British industry and laying the groundwork for long-term energy transition.

  • 1350 MW

    hydrogen capacity in early phases – enough to power a city the size of Liverpool

  • 2.5 million tonnes of CO2

    captured annually – equivalent to removing 1 million cars from the roads

  • $3 billion

    in planned project development

  • 2,000 MW

    potential follow on capacity

The drive to net zero: the HyNet cluster

Accelerating industrial decarbonisation in the North West and North Wales

Uniquely positioned at the heart of the industrial North West, we are central to the HyNet Cluster, and a crucial requirement to enable the hydrogen infrastructure across the North West and North Wales region.

HyNet isn’t just a project — it’s a drive to net zero, and plays a pivotal role in helping the UK achieve its net zero goals.
