Fuel Cells: Supply Chains
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what assessment has been made of the opportunity for the UK to develop domestic hydrogen fuel cell supply chains.
- Answer
-
Hydrogen is an Industrial Strategy frontier industry, assessed as one of the sectors with the greatest growth potential over the next decade. As we set out in the Clean Industries Sector Plan, the hydrogen industry will create investment and jobs across the UK’s industrial heartlands, and the UK is well placed to be a global leader in hydrogen supply chains, including for fuel cells.
We are working closely with UK companies to highlight the UK’s strengths, attract investment, support scale‑up, and boost domestic hydrogen production, helping grow fuel cell supply chains both in the UK and overseas.
