Recommendation 19

Although many of the components of a facility used to generate, store and convert hydrogen back into electricity are technologically mature, there are no facilities that do all three at scale in the UK. A large-scale demonstrator could help to “de-risk” investment by serving as a successful model for later projects to follow. The Committee welcomes the announcement that two projects will be supported under the hydrogen transportation and business model, but the scale of these projects is unclear.
