Description

This report assesses, with reference to supporting ITEG studies and wider market initiatives, the potential opportunities that exist for tidal stream hydrogen production. With reference to Orkney as a case study, businesses cases are discussed around the co-location of tidal projects and hydrogen production in a coastal context to supply shipping, port facilities and related local uses. The potential to supply rural commercial heating processes, such as distilling are appraised.
