HYDEX LAUNCHES REPORT: 'ACCELERATING HYDROGEN ADOPTION - DECARBONISING KEY UK INDUSTRIES' HyDEX and the Energy Research Accelerator (ERA) have launched a report at Madano's offices in London, examining the usage, future potential and challenges of hydrogen adoption in various industries. The report examines how hydrogen can be used to decarbonise Heavy Industry as well as Aviation, Road Transport, Construction, Quarrying and Farming. In addition to specific recommendations for each sector, the report identifies a number of cross-cutting common issues, and calls for government to: 1. Join up thinking between government departments and prevent lengthy delays to project that straddle different departments. 2. Improve public understanding of the benefits of hydrogen through a communications campaign. 3. Develop comprehensive training to address skills and labour requirements. 4. Produce a clear plan for the deployment of hydrogen infrastructure. 5. Provide financial incentives to deter future reliance on fossil fuels, such as raising the carbon price.
