Centrica and HiiROC to inject hydrogen at Brigg gas-fired power
The 49MW gas fired plant at Brigg is designed to meet demand during peak times or when generation from renewables is low, typically operating for less than three hours a day.

Centrica and hydrogen technology specialist HiiROC have successfully completed the UK''s first trial using hydrogen to cut emissions from a gas-fired peaking plant.
The project involved installing a new 50MW peaking plant at the site of a decommissioned combined cycle gas power station, as well as the installation of a 50MW battery system.
Turquoise hydrogen made using “thermal plasma electrolysis” has been successfully injected into a gas-fired power station as part of the country''s first ever trial of H 2 in a peaker plant.
Centrica has successfully demonstrated the injection of hydrogen into a gas-fired peak power plant at Centrica''s Brigg Energy Park, North Lincolnshire. The trial marks a UK first in using
In this respect, the Brigg trial suggests that the UK may be able to decarbonise a segment of its generation (peak gas-fired plants) more cheaply than building hydrogen-only plants or

Work is expected to last for about nine months, with the plant due to be fully operational by early 2025. Work is under way to double the capacity at a power station in North Lincolnshire....
