text: Hydrogen is mentioned three times in the Labour Party Manifesto published last week. Several industries are prioritised in the document but Hydrogen gets special treatment aimed at 2030. £500M is being made available for Green Hydrogen Manufacture. Since Boris, £1bn was said by the present government to be injected into green hydrogen aiming for 10-20 GW of production but progress at DESNZ has been slow and 1GW has still not been achieved in 3 years. Things must accelerate now, and £500M could have a big impact if planning consents can be immediate.
