The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Upstream.
These three paragraphs explain the project.
Air Products has joined with power generator VPI to push forward a hydrogen hub on the south bank of the Humber Estuary in the UK, primarily meant to decarbonise VPI’s power production in Immingham.
The companies said they will develop an 800-megawatt production facility called the Humber Hydrogen Hub (H3) that would include carbon capture and storage and aim to capture up to 2 million tonnes per annum of carbon dioxide.
Hydrogen produced at the facility will first substitute fuel for VPI’s existing third gas turbine power train.
Note.
- VPI is a UK-based power company, providing energy to the National Grid.
- Immingham Power station is currently a 730 MW gas-fired power station, which is being expanded to 1240 MW.
- It looks like that expansion will use hydrogen.
It is all part of HumberZero.

The title of this post, is the same as that of this feature article on Professional Engineering.
This is the opening paragraph.
One day, in the very near future, commercial aircraft will be fuelled by household rubbish. Yes, seriously.
It then goes on to describe the Velocys process for producing sustainable aviation fuel from household rubbish.
This paragraph explains, how it will change rubbish disposal.
Interestingly, Velocys won’t have to pay to obtain the waste. “We don’t buy it. We get paid to take it,” says Hargreaves. He explains how the supply chain starts with councils and businesses that are obliged to pay waste contractors to dispose of their waste. Those waste contractors then pay to incinerate the waste or send it to landfill sites. Velocys’s plant will simply act as an alternative disposal route.
The article is a very good explanation of one of the developments, that will shape the future of the world.
