Responding to the Hydrogen APPG’s report, ‘How the UK’s hydrogen sector can help support the UK’s economic recovery,’ Energy UK’s chief executive, Emma Pinchbeck said:
“The new report from the All Party Parliamentary Group on hydrogen recognises the crucial role that hydrogen can play in the post-COVID-19 economic recovery and in our transition to net-zero and we are pleased to see that many of Energy UK’s recommendations have been included in their advice to government.
“This pandemic has delivered a huge shock to our economy and our daily lives but there is a massive opportunity now to kickstart the UK economic recovery, create jobs, invest in communities, and protect our environment, by delivering the UK’s net-zero target.
“We support the view of the All Party Parliamentary Group that a comprehensive national hydrogen strategy is the first step in unleashing the UK’s potential to be a global-leader in low-carbon hydrogen.”
