The Lower Thames Crossing (LTC) is a National Highways project that will build a new road connecting Kent, Thurrock and Essex through a tunnel beneath the River Thames. It will provide much-needed new road capacity across the river east of London, alleviating congestion on the Dartford Crossing. Three Delivery Partners have been appointed to deliver the three main components of the project - Kent Roads, Tunnels & Approaches and Roads North. National Highways has designated LTC a pathfinder project that will explore carbon neutral construction. Low Carbon Hydrogen is a key element in LTC's strategy to deliver its carbon reduction targets and a key objective of this procurement is to enable a significant reduction in the use of diesel on the programme by enabling the use of hydrogen powered plant, machinery and generators. The procurement covers the supply, delivery, storage on site and dispensing of Low Carbon Hydrogen for use by the LTC appointed Delivery Partners to fuel their construction plant and equipment. Making hydrogen easily available could displace a significant amount of the diesel forecast to be used during construction. ## CPV classification Hydrogen Petroleum products, fuel, electricity and other sources of energy Electrical machinery, apparatus, equipment and consumables; lighting Industrial machinery Machinery for mining, quarrying, construction equipment Earthmoving and excavating machinery, and associated parts Construction machinery and equipment Construction work Public utilities Other sources of energy supplies and distribution Source Find a Tender (UK) · Notice ocds-h6vhtk-03d447-2026-02-24T17:38:48Z [View official notice](https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/ocds-h6vhtk-03d447-2026-02-24T17:38:48Z) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
