Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps he is taking to encourage investment into the hydrogen technology manufacturing sector.

Asked by:
Sally Jameson (Labour)

Answer

Under the Industrial Strategy's Clean Energy Industries Sector Plan the Government announced a public finance offer to crowd private investment into clean energy industries, including the UK's hydrogen economy. This includes: a £1bn Clean Energy supply chain fund; £5.8bn for the National Wealth Fund to invest across this Parliament in clean industries including low-carbon hydrogen; and a £4bn British Business Bank Industrial Strategy Growth Capital scale and start up financing package.

My officials have been working closely with the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero to showcase these opportunities for investment alongside UK world-class capability across the hydrogen sector.
