Work has begun on the expansion of a gas turbine test facility which will significantly advance the development of hydrogen-fuelled turbines – which could power millions of homes and businesses, including those in the UK.
Plans for what could be one of the world’s first hydrogen fired power stations have moved forward after the proposals were accepted for consideration by UK Government’s Planning Inspectorate.
Members of the public are being invited to have their say on plans for a proposed new power station in development, Ferrybridge Next Generation Power Station.
A first-of-a-kind project which would unite hydrogen production, storage and power generation in one location has been shortlisted by UK Government in a recent funding process.
SSE Thermal Managing Director, Finlay McCutcheon, discusses the need for flexibility in the clean power system and SSE Thermal's role in delivering it.
In total, SSE has provisionally secured agreements for 4,591MW of de-rated* electricity generation capacity for the delivery year which runs from 1 October 2028 to 30 September 2029.
