Hydrogen SW Maritime Group in Partnership with Maritime UK SW Sept 23rd, 9-10.30 (online)

Connecting people, places and projects, to drive the development of hydrogen infrastructure.

The South West has a rich engineering and energy history, and is home to a powerful cluster of leading maritime, aerospace and transport businesses.

A large number of organisations have joined forces to create Hydrogen South West, an infrastructure ecosystem that brings the benefits of hydrogen to the South West of England.

Hydrogen South West and Maritime UK south West are forming a partnership to help drive the development of decarbonisation via hydrogen fuels in the South West region for maritime and other sectors.

The collaboration with MUKSW creates links between supply and demand centres in the region, and enables cross-sector partnerships that will drive the development of hydrogen infrastructure and technology.
