Hydrogen

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they will confirm the scheduled start date for the second Hydrogen Allocation Round; and what is their target date to move projects shortlisted under it to the "Invite to Offer" stage.

Answer

Hydrogen Allocation Round (HAR) 2 is currently a live round. We are working hard across government to start the Invite to Offer stage of HAR2 as soon as possible and will be in touch with projects when this commences. We understand that many projects are at critical stages, and that certainty is important to support business planning, resource management and engagement with third parties.
