Electrolosis low-carbon hydrogen production
INOVYN, a subsidiary of INEOS, is upgrading its existing production at Runcorn to supply compressed fuel-cell quality hydrogen to mobility and power generation sectors.
INOVYN, which has been producing and using low-carbon hydrogen at its Runcorn site for over 100 years, will deliver dedicated on-site facilities for the purification and compression of existing low carbon and fuel cell quality hydrogen for subsequent loading and transportation and distribution to fuelling stations across the UK.
Low-carbon hydrogen from Runcorn will help to decarbonise the UK and accelerate the drive to net-zero, confirming INOVYN’s position as the leading producer of low-carbon hydrogen in the UK. The investment at the site will kick-start the emerging hydrogen market and further support the North West’s regional commitment to carbon neutrality.

Hydrogen production at Runcorn has the potential to provide low-carbon fuel to power over 1,000 buses or 2,000 trucks, where battery electric drive systems are not appropriate due to range, payload and critical refuelling times.
