Tees Valley produces 50% of the UK's hydrogen. Significant regional investment is coming for groundbreaking hydrogen projects. Tees Valley can become a major global player in low-carbon hydrogen production, consumption, carbon capture, utilization and storage. We are excited to welcome Dr Faizan Ahmad to hear about research in gas separation, carbon capture, hydrogen purification and opportunities coming to the region.
