Luxfer Gas Cylinders recently announced that it has joining forces with Octopus Hydrogen, a subsidiary of green energy tech pioneer Octopus Energy, in the specification and supply of multi-million pound bulk gas transport modules that will carry green hydrogen across the UK.
The 40ft long units designed by Luxfer, which are called Multiple Element Gas Containers (MEGC), can transport 1.1 tonnes of hydrogen from the electrolyser plant to the point of use. They will be deployed from mid-2022 and will help address the infrastructure barrier that is impacting wide adoption of the technology.
Mark Lawday, Global Sales Director from Luxfer added “Bulk gas transport for hydrogen is an important piece of the jigsaw in enabling the hydrogen economy to be fully realised and reach net zero goals. It’s an exciting step forward, and we’re proud to be working alongside Octopus Hydrogen to drive forward innovation.”
