Name of the Project
Zero Carbon Humber (ZCH).

Location
Humber region, in the north of England, UK.

Project Owner/s
ZCH Partnership comprising Associated British Ports, British Steel, Centrica Storage, Drax Group, Equinor, Mitsubishi Power, National Grid Ventures, px Group, SSE Thermal, Saltend Cogeneration Company, Uniper and the University of Sheffield’s Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC).

Project Description
ZCH could reduce the UK’s yearly emissions by 15% and save industry about £27.5-billion in carbon taxes by 2040.

It will also help to secure the future for the Humber’s traditional heavy industry, which is the most carbon-intensive industrial cluster in the UK, emitting 12.4-million tonnes a year.

The anchor project for ZCH is the Equinor-led Hydrogen to Humber Saltend project, which will establish the world’s largest hydrogen production plant, with carbon capture at px Group’s Saltend Chemicals Park.

The project plans to capture carbon dioxide at scale from industry around the Humber estuary, through pipelines that transport the emissions to permanent storage, in naturally occurring aquifers under the southern North Sea.

Potential Job Creation
The project is expected to protect 55 000 existing jobs in the Humber and create more than 20 000 new jobs while supporting skills, apprenticeships and educational opportunities in the region.

Capital Expenditure
Not stated.

Planned Start/End Date
The project is expected to be commissioned by 2026.

Latest Developments
None stated.

Key Contracts, Suppliers and Consultants
None stated.
