Two firms sign deal to jointly convert the Easington gas terminal in East Yorkshire to become a low-carbon production hub

The two firms have signed a deal to jointly advance the project and say the new facility could meet 200MW of existing offtake demand in the local area and generate an additional 1GW of low-carbon hydrogen production. Currently, up to 30pc of the UK’s total gas supply enters via the Easington gas terminal, much of it from Equinor’s Norwegian facilities. The area is also earmarked as a potential landing point for the pipeline that will transport CO₂ from the East Coast Cluster carbon-capture development out for storage under the Nort
