Tees Valley Hydrogen Transport Hub - Competition Briefing
Join us for this competition briefing, held in partnership with the Department for Transport (DfT) and Innovate UK. This event will provide you all the information you need in order to apply for funding for projects to support the development of the Tees Valley Hydrogen Transport Hub.
Up to £3m is available to support a series of hydrogen transport demonstrations across Tees Valley. These focused demonstrations will play a crucial role in underpinning the Hydrogen Transport Hub, a large-scale and long-term initiative to make the region and the UK a world leader in hydrogen-powered transport. You can find the Hub Master Plan here.
