Net Zero Teesside (NZT) - New dispatchable gas-fired power station with carbon capture technology

H2 Teesside - New build CCUS-enabled hydrogen production plant

The NEP and NZT are included in the current funding envelope related to the funding announcement made in October 2024.

H2 Teesside and BOC are currently a part of the Project Negotiation List (PNL). Following a period of assessment and due diligence, the Track 1 PNL was determined and published in March 2023. Projects that were most likely to be delivered within our required timeframes and budget and storage capacity were selected.
