PRAPS056 -Novel technologies - evidence review

The UK government has set a target for two low carbon industrial clusters deploying hydrogen production and carbon capture and storage by the mid-2020s, and a minimum of four by 2030. This offers both an opportunity to decouple economic growth from greenhouse gas emissions in industrial heartlands by decarbonising carbon-intensive industry and generating cleaner energy. The proposed projects to achieve this ambition comprise a range of novel technologies with many unknown impact pathways.
