Nuclear & Hydrogen: The Region’s Next Success Story

The Northern Nuclear Alliance (NNA) have developed this opportunity briefing to highlight the new opportunity for North West England and North Wales, regarding the existence of two world leading industries: Hydrogen and Nuclear, within the same geographic region of the UK. The briefing paper has been developed in conjunction with the North West Business Leadership Team, alongside key stakeholders from both the North West nuclear and hydrogen communities.

The paper draws upon information and data developed by leading institutions such as the Dalton Nuclear Institute, the National Nuclear Laboratory, the Welsh Nuclear Forum, the North West Nuclear Arc, the North West Hydrogen Alliance, Hydrogen UK and Net Zero North West. This first
opportunity briefing paper is designed to inform both policy makers and industry leaders of the vast opportunity that nuclear derived hydrogen could offer, with the intention of stimulating further debate, gaining Government interest and ultimately attracting new investment into the region.
