Greater Manchester Hydrogen Fuel Cell Strategy

Greater Manchester Hydrogen Fuel Cell Strategy

Hydrogen and fuel cells have the potential to help deliver very low emissions pathways. As a low carbon energy source, increased use of hydrogen and fuel cells can have a noticeable effect on carbon emissions simply by providing a cleaner alternative and at a scale far greater than any other potential route.

There is recognition in the region of the importance of hydrogen and fuel cells and what they bring to the decarbonisation route for Manchester, with its ambition of being net zero carbon by 2038. The Manchester Fuel Cell Innovation Centre (MFCIC) at Manchester Metropolitan University is a regional hub for research, innovation and economic growth in the hydrogen and fuel cell technology sector in the North West and beyond.
