LONDON (ICIS)–UK company Protium announced on 26 September that it is expanding its capacity at the Tees Valley hydrogen project to 68.8MW, up from 40MW, the company said.

The Tees Valley Net Zero Project is due to be completed in 2026, and is set to be developed in two phases.

The first phase, scheduled to take place in the third quarter of 2025, will include one array of a PEM electrolyser, equivalent to 17.2MW capacity, with the second phase set to scale-up the first phase of the electrolyser by another three arrays, to have four arrays of the PEM electrolyser in total.

It will utilise Protium developed renewable energy generators (including both solar and wind power).

The UK has set a target of 10GW of hydrogen production capacity to be in place by 2030, of which at least 5GW will be renewable hydrogen.
