Carlton Power has secured planning permission for the development of the 200MW Trafford Green Hydrogen scheme, the city’s first low-carbon hydrogen fuel hub.
The £300m scheme, first announced in March 2021, is now the UK’s largest consented green hydrogen scheme, according to a statement.
The first phase of the Trafford Green Hydrogen scheme (at 15-20MW) is likely to create around 200 construction jobs over a two-year period and create up to 10 full-time operational jobs with future phases to be constructed in response to demand for hydrogen in the region.
