Innovate UK, in collaboration with Innovate UK KTN, hosted an online competition briefing webinar on the 16^th February 2023 to share details of the new funding competition “Hydrogen storage and distribution supply chain Collaborative R&D”

Low carbon hydrogen has an important role to play in the UK’s move towards net zero carbon. The UK Government continues to support the scale up of hydrogen production through the Net Zero Hydrogen Fund and Hydrogen Business Models but in order to exploit the opportunity of 10GW hydrogen production by 2030 we need strong supply chains.

The hydrogen storage and distribution supply chain fund will,

• Provide a mechanism which incentivises collaboration across the hydrogen value chain, with particular emphasis in storage and distribution of hydrogen
• Develop integrated storage and distribution systems
• Reduce the associated cost of hydrogen supply chains related to the storage and distribution of hydrogen.
• Encourage the commercialization and adoption of hydrogen storage and distribution innovation

Innovation within different parts of hydrogen storage and distribution supply chain include but is not limited to:

• Pipeline and vessels
• On-vehicle transport
• Storage tanks and surface infrastructure
• Monitoring and system controls such as meters, sensors and valves
• Refuelling and blending

The briefing webinar will include an opportunity to:

• Hear about the scope of the competition in more detail and how to apply
• Learn about the eligibility criteria
• Hear about the support services available for businesses applying into the fund
