The 7th UK CCUS & Hydrogen Decarbonisation Summit will focus on the implementation of
CCS & CCUS within industrial operations and how hydrogen can decarbonise industry and
transport. The summit will bring together 750+ government officials, regulators, key industry
stake holders, leading academia, and service companies. This will be accompanied alongside a
side exhibition of 60+ exhibitors showcasing innovative CCUS and hydrogen technologies and
services.
The Net Zero targets and ambitions on a local and national level are not on course, this session will review the actions needed to accelerate projects and the importance of local and national government, project developers and investors all collaborating in tandem to ensure the UK can position it as a thought leader in energy transition.
We will review CCUS an CCS project developments and projected projects over the next 18 months. This session will review the steps needed to get from FEED to FID, exploring the EPC and investor challenges. As well as this we will review the economic models to make FID possible.
Within this session we will review the infrastructure challenges for CCS and the pipeline developments needed alongside the well integrity repurposing for CCS storage within depleted oil and gas assets. Also, CCS transportation routes will be revied and discussed to utilise the current infrastructure in place which will range from CO2 shipping, rail and barges to deliver the CO2 to the storage location.
With CCCS being a costly project and the commercial necessity to achieve FID is essential, we will look at commercial models on how this can be achieved. This session will review how SAF will play an integral part of energy transition, with CO2 as the feedstock for SAF production will allow chemical and petrochemical manufacturers the opportunity to decarbonise assets while creating commercial models. Another key challenge that will be needed to be addressed will be the STEAM workforce as we have an ageing workforce and competition globally for a skilled workforce.
Hydrogen will be the key energy vector in industrial decarbonisation, with electrification not suitable for the energy demand needed for the hard to abate sectors, petrochemical and refineries. This session will review recent hydrogen projects and the importance of digitalisation, automation and AI to reduce hydrogen production costs for the future.
This session will evaluate the developments of Project Union and the importance digital transformation and automation to enhance and smart grid balance and demand which will play an essential role in the industrial fuel switching process.
Hydrogen storage and transportation will be key factor in the acceleration of energy transition in the UK. Options discussed for storge are salt caverns, offshore well injection and onshore storage. The transportation of hydrogen to local emitters will be repurposed gas pipelines for hydrogen and transportation via rail or liquified hydrogen.
With many ports across the UK now enabling energy transition, this session will review the opportunities for the UK to export or import ammonia, liquified hydrogen or methanol as a hydrogen carrier. The session will discuss the infrastructure that is needed to support CCS transportation and what challenges need to be addressed to support energy transition and decarbonisation.
The UK Government have been recommending the public look at their carbon footprint and promoting public transport as a great way to help reduce the UK’s carbon emissions. With extensive rail networks and hydrogen buses now being deployed already across the UK, converting trains, buses and HGVs to hydrogen will dramatically reduce transportation carbon footprint. The UK has existing infrastructure in place for CCS transportation methods. This session will review the operator’s challenges to this and what is needed from government and industry to support this transition.
With aviation being the biggest emitter of carbon within transportation, this session will review how hydrogen or CCUS can help decarbonise the aviation sector. You will hear from different project developers, operators, and industry on how hydrogen or CCUS can provide sustainable aviation fuels (SAF).
