General H2 Sector Background Information

Hydrogen Production - How much hydrogen is currently produced in your city and what are your plans for increasing hydrogen production within the next five years?

We don't have this information. Sheffield is home to ITM Power who have operations here and in Germany. They have recently opened an electrolyser factory and also host a hydrogen refuelling station.

Hydrogen Consumption - How much hydrogen is currently consumed in your city and what are your plans for increasing hydrogen consumption within the next five years?

We don't have this information.

Hydrogen Production - What energy resources/feedstocks are present locally that could be used to produce hydrogen today?

a. Solar
b. Wind
d. Geothermal
e. Biomass and waste
f. Nuclear

Hydrogen Production - Which resources/feedstocks do you plan to focus on within the next five years?

a. Solar
b. Wind
d. Geothermal
e. Biomass and waste
f. Nuclear

Hydrogen Infrastructure - What existing hydrogen infrastructure is present in your city and in which areas will you increase deployment in the next five years?

a. Refueling stations
b. Hydrogen production facilities (e.g., electrolyzers)

Hydrogen End-Use - What sectors currently consume hydrogen in your city?

a. Transportation

Provide any other information to be shared publicly that may be of value in being selected as a potential twin city.

We may also have the opportunity to benefit from hydrogen from a local industrial cluster and are interested in other organisations with experience in replacing natural gas with hydrogen. We are also interested in learning more about the use of hydrogen in transport.
