BP, Adnoc and Masdar to produce hydrogen in UK and #UAE in clean energy partnership

BP, Adnoc and Masdar to produce hydrogen in UK and UAE in clean energy partnership

BP, Masdar and Adnoc will work together to develop low carbon hydrogen hubs and decarbonised air travel corridors between the UK and UAE, in the latest string of deals deepening the strategic ties between the two countries.

Together, the British multinational, clean energy company Masdar and the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, initially aim to produce 2 gigawatts of low carbon hydrogen in the UK and UAE. The intention is to expand as the project progresses, they said in a statement also announcing two other agreements.

Hydrogen – which can be produced from both renewable energy and natural gas – is expected to become a critical fuel as economies and industries transition to a low carbon world to mitigate climate change and global warming.

The use of sustainable fuels, such as hydrogen, is a key part of aviation’s effort to support bringing global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions to net zero by 2050 and help meet the goal of limiting the temperature rise to 1.5 °C.
