Cadent and Equinor have agreed to work together to develop plans for a “hydrogen town” in the Humber region in which the gas network would be converted to run on 100% hydrogen. They said the Humber – sometimes described as the UK’s “energy estuary” – is the ideal location for a such pilot due to the other low-carbon hydrogen production projects proposed in the area, including Equinor’s H2H Saltend blue hydrogen plant.
