What role is your organisation/technology playing?

BTK: The East Coast Cluster is one of the first two carbon capture, usage, and storage clusters to be taken forward by the UK government for deployment in the late 2020s. The cluster covers Teesside and the Humber, Britain’s historic engine room and the source of nearly half of carbon emissions from UK industrial clusters.

The Cluster includes an unparalleled and diverse mix of low-carbon projects, including industrial carbon capture, low-carbon hydrogen production, negative emissions power, and power with carbon capture. All these technologies, delivered by companies with unrivalled experience in successfully delivering ambitious and world changing projects, are essential for the UK to meet its net zero targets.
