The Government is taking steps to enable the decarbonisation of unabated gas generation like Keadby Power Station. This includes supporting hydrogen production through the £240 million Net Zero Hydrogen Fund (NZHF) while providing revenue support through the Hydrogen Production Business Model; enabling power CCUS through the Dispatchable Power Agreement; and in Powering Up Britain, the Government announced its intention to consult on the need and design of a market intervention for hydrogen power.
