Bacton Gas Terminal Positioned as a Potential Carbon Capture and Hydrogen Production Hub
HYDROGENCARBON CAPTURE
The Bacton gas terminal in Norfolk, a significant contributor to the UK’s gas supply, is being considered as a potential hub for carbon capture and hydrogen production, according to local energy leaders. With the government's recent investment in carbon capture and storage (CCS) initiatives, experts believe Bacton could effectively utilize its existing infrastructure to reduce emissions and support sustainable energy goals.
However, environmental groups express concerns that CCS may prolong reliance on fossil fuels. The terminal's future could include hydrogen production, positioning it as a key player in the UK’s energy transition.
