Ineos advances Grangemouth blue hydrogen project
Bidders invited for engineering-design contract on project, which depends on progress of Scotland’s Acorn CCS cluster
Chemicals group Ineos is advancing plans for a blue hydrogen plant at its Grangemouth refining and petrochemicals complex in Scotland by inviting bids for the project’s engineering-design contract. Ineos unveiled proposals in September last year for the 150,000t/yr blue hydrogen plant, aimed at decarbonising its operations with an investment of £500mn ($685mn). The plant is scheduled to be commissioned in 2030. “We are inviting bids from the best engineering companies to design both a state-of-the-art carbon capture-enabled hydrogen production plant and an extensive suite of related infrastructure projects,” says Stuart Collings, CEO of Ineos’ UK olefin and polymer subsidiary.
