UK Hydrogen Innovation Opportunity
The UK Hydrogen Innovation Opportunity for the first time, brings together the varied insights from published data, combined with market analysis, direct input from leaders and key stakeholders across the hydrogen landscape to create a consensus view in one report.
UK Hydrogen Innovation Opportunity Supporting Reports
The first phase of research, evidence and analysis underpinning this document is contained in the following four supporting reports:
Hydrogen production and conversion into carriers
Debt financing low carbon hydrogen projects in the UK
Projects in energy markets often use debt financing because it is cheaper than equity and enables rapid scaling. The question this report set out to answer is whether low carbon hydrogen projects can/are able to access this type of funding.
Offshore Wind and Hydrogen: Solving the Integration Challenge
This report looks at the opportunities and challenges associated with integrating high levels of renewables in to the electricity grid, and makes a strong case for the synergies between offshore wind (OSW) and green hydrogen production
Wind turbine - electrolyser literature review
This report explores the advantages and challenges of integrating electrolysers with offshore wind turbines.
Functionality and Scope of Future Hydrogen Hubs: ‘Beyond Production: Examining the Dual Role of Future Hydrogen Hubs
This report explores the value of hydrogen hubs in creating local/regional ecosystems that not only produce hydrogen but also promote its use
End-to-end hydrogen storage
Engineering considerations for cryogenic hydrogen applications
An introductory primer to the engineering considerations required in the use of cryogenic hydrogen.
Unlocking the hydrogen market
In this article, we (HII) delve into the complexities of small-scale hydrogen distribution, exploring the impact of existing challenges, and the promising solutions emerging in the UK.

Key barriers to the development of hydrogen in the UK energy system
As part of the Innovate UK funded Hydrogen Innovation Initiative (HII) Seed project, the Energy Systems Catapult and the University of Birmingham undertook a series of interviews and analysis towards the end of Q1 2023 to identify and collate barriers to using hydrogen in the UK energy system for Net Zero.
How to decarbonise the most challenging areas of the UK economy?
This thought leadership piece made the case for establishing the Hydrogen Innovation Initiative. It discusses how advances in hydrogen technology will play a critical role in delivering net zero.
Enabling activity for multi-GW offshore wind and hydrogen deployment in the Celtic Sea
This report focuses on preparing the Milford Haven region for longer term trends (longer time-horizon energy generation) and is part of a wider suite of documents related to this study
Exploring the potential interactions between floating offshore wind and hydrogen
This report examines the challenges and future opportunities for floating offshore wind and green hydrogen for the integration to the electrical grid infrastructure. The potential combination of both floating offshore wind and hydrogen have received significant interest from the UK Government and this report examines that potential.
