Essar Energy Transition Signs EPC Contract with ENKA for Low Carbon Hydrogen Plant
- 27/01/2025
Essar Energy Transition (EET) Hydrogen has signed an Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract with ENKA for its flagship low carbon hydrogen production plant (HPP1) at the Stanlow Manufacturing Complex in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire.
In October 2024, the UK Government confirmed funding to support HPP1, marking it as the UK’s first large-scale low carbon hydrogen project within the HyNet Cluster. With a production capacity of 350MW, HPP1 will capture approximately 600,000 tonnes of CO2 annually – the equivalent of removing around 250,000 cars from the road.
