The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, when he plans to update the UK Hydrogen Strategy.

Answered by Michael Shanks

We plan to publish a renewed Hydrogen Strategy, alongside a package of other hydrogen policy documents, as soon as possible.

The renewed Hydrogen Strategy will set out Government’s vision and objectives for hydrogen, and how we intend to work together with industry to continue to transform ambition into action. Our understanding of where hydrogen can deliver the greatest value in our energy system has matured and our strategy will sharpen our priorities, deepen industry collaboration, and unlock the full potential of hydrogen over the next decade.
