Ulster Hydrogen Valley
Decarbonising the Northern Ireland economy by 2050 will require the deployment of large-scale offshore wind farms. These will be additional to the existing onshore capacity and have both geographical and hourly correlation to the electrical loads being supplied.
The existing electrical grid network is not capable, in the time and budgets available, of transporting such large amounts of power on its own but assistance can be provided by Power-to-X systems to allow crossover of hydrogen into gas networks.
