Scotland is investing in its hydrogen economy with £3.4 million in funding distributed among eleven projects aimed at accelerating green hydrogen production, improving infrastructure, and enhancing transport and storage systems. The Acting Net Zero Cabinet Secretary, Gillian Martin, highlighted hydrogen's crucial role in achieving Scotland's net zero target by 2045 and its potential as a significant industrial opportunity. The funding will support projects like Sustainable Fuels Orkney, Creca Hydrogen Facility, and Strathallan Hydrogen, among others. The UK's first hydrogen training center has opened at Fife College to train over 100 Gas Safe registered engineers for projects like H100 Fife, which aims to provide green hydrogen to local homes. The facility offers hands-on training with hydrogen appliances from leading manufacturers and will add an official hydrogen qualification to the engineers' Gas Safe registration. Gary Smith of GMB union commended the training center's role in upskilling workers for the transition to a low-carbon economy. SGN, the energy network behind the initiative, expressed excitement about delivering green hydrogen through the Fife network. The collaboration between SGN, Fife College, and industry stakeholders aims to advance the decarbonization of homes and businesses by harnessing green gases like hydrogen. The training will be delivered by expert trainers at the Levenmouth Campus, ensuring engineers have the knowledge and competency to work with hydrogen safely. The initiative represents a significant step towards building a sustainable and skilled workforce for the future of green energy in the UK.
