Hydrogen UK (HUK) has added 13 new partners to its membership since April this year, meaning that the organisation has doubled in size since its launch in December 2021. The recent additions to the UK’s largest hydrogen trade body bring the current total of members to 46 and further bolster the organisation’s extensive expertise across the entire hydrogen value chain.

A number of the new members joined HUK following its inaugural UK Hydrogen Investment Forum in July, organised in partnership with the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy which saw the Secretary of State, Kwasi Kwarteng, speak.

Born from the Hydrogen Taskforce, HUK’s mission is to ensure that government and industry work together to deliver a hydrogen economy and achieve net-zero. Covering every part of the value chain from production and storage to networks and end use, HUK is uniquely positioned to advise on how to move from planning to delivery.

The range of the new members’ areas of expertise reflects the industry’s strength and demonstrates the significant potential of hydrogen to facilitate the energy transition.

In terms of supply specialists, green hydrogen producer Lhyfe, Levidian, ExxonMobil, Spirit Energy and Vertex Hydrogen, which is building the UK’s first low-carbon hydrogen production plant, have come onboard.

Companies joining from the storage and transport sector include Snam, H2GO Power, Phillips 66, Clugston and First Hydrogen.

The investment field is represented by Net Zero Technology Centre and Marubeni Europower, while the final new member is the UK's leading accredited provider of compliance, technical and safety training, Develop Training Ltd.

Commenting on the latest tranche of new members, HUK CEO Clare Jackson said: “Seeing so many new members joining Hydrogen UK in the last four months is a big vote of confidence in our promotion of hydrogen as a key element in the energy transition. As the industry’s largest representative body, we are determined to scale hydrogen technology to deliver widespread, cost-effective decarbonisation across our society. We look forward to continuing our support of business and government as we work together to create a sustainable energy system.”
