Humber Industrial Decarbonisation Roadmap

亨伯LEP和成员组织CATCH将制定亨伯工业脱碳路线图（HIDR），为亨伯工业集群到2040年实现净零碳排放并到2030年大幅减少碳排放奠定基础。亨伯群集集中在亨伯河口附近。它包括英国主要的钢铁生产中心；两座炼油厂；两个主要的化学品集群；以及生物燃料、水泥、石灰和玻璃制造商。它是能源河口的一部分，其中包括世界上正在建设的最大的海上风电场；几个现有的和计划中的燃气发电站；以及英国最大的生物质发电站——提供蓝色和绿色氢气生产和BECCS的潜力。英国最大的港口综合体和英国最大的企业区巩固了该地区进一步工业增长的潜力。亨伯河受益于英国最具地质意义的北海潜在二氧化碳储存地点；英国最深的盐矿，是储氢的理想场所，已被用于陆上天然气储存；以及亨伯河口周围巨大的自然封存潜力。亨伯的二氧化碳排放量比其他任何工业集群都多（比第二大工业集群多30%），同时该地区极易因洪水风险而受到气候变化的影响。亨伯四分之一的GVA和十分之一的工作岗位依赖于这些行业，因此保护它们的竞争力势在必行。因此，清洁增长，包括到2040年实现净零排放，是亨伯地方工业战略的核心，该战略将于近期发布。制定HIDR被确定为一项关键的早期行动。HIDR将使大型工业排放国、低碳基础设施提供商和其他利益相关者能够制定共同的方法，到2040年实现净零排放。这将把英国最大的工业脱碳机会分解成可管理的部分，使其与更广泛的当地清洁增长计划保持一致，并就所需的行动达成共识。这种协调的方法将减少发展和连接低碳基础设施的障碍，使亨伯省能够有效地与政府就商业和监管模式进行合作，并最大限度地提高当地商业和社区从转型中获得的利益。

Humber LEP and membership organisation CATCH will develop the Humber Industrial Decarbonisation Roadmap (HIDR), establishing the pathway for the Humber industrial cluster's carbon emissions to be net zero by 2040 and significantly reduced by 2030.The Humber cluster is concentrated around the Humber Estuary. It includes the UK's main steel production centre; two oil refineries; two major chemicals clusters; and biofuel, cement, lime and glass manufacturers. It is part of the Energy Estuary, which includes the largest offshore windfarm underconstruction in the world; several existing and planned gas-fired power stations; and the UK's largest biomass power station - offering the potential for blue and green hydrogen production and BECCS. The UK's largest ports complex and the UK's largest Enterprise Zone underpin the area's potential for further industrial growth.The Humber benefits from the UK's most geologically understood site for potential CO2 storage under the North Sea; the deepest UK salt deposits, ideal for hydrogen storage, already utilised for onshore gas storage; and significant natural sequestration potential around the Humber Estuary.The Humber emits more CO2 than any other industrial cluster (30% more than the next largest), whilst the area is highly vulnerable to climate change through flood risk. A quarter of Humber GVA and 1 in 10 jobs depend on theseindustries, making safeguarding their competitiveness imperative.Clean growth, including achieving net zero by 2040, is therefore at the centre of the Humber's Local Industrial Strategy which is due for publication shortly.Developing HIDR is identified as a critical early action.HIDR will enable large industrial emitters, low carbon infrastructure providers and other stakeholders to develop a shared approach to achieving net zero by 2040. This will break down the UK's biggest industrial decarbonisationopportunity into manageable parts, align it with wider local clean growth plans and build consensus around the actions required. This coordinated approach will reduce the barriers to developing and connecting to low carbon infrastructure, enable the Humber to engage effectively together withGovernment on business and regulatory models, and maximise local business and community benefits from the transition.
