The Clean Growth Strategy highlights the need for industry to begin to switch from fossil fuels to low carbon fuels such as biomass, hydrogen and clean electricity. Beyond 2030, the switch to low carbon fuels for industry will need to substantially increase in scale. BEIS has launched the three-phase Industrial Fuel Switching competition, which allocates up to £20 million, to stimulate early investment in fuel switching processes and technologies, so that a range of technologies are available by 2030 and beyond. Element Energy successfully bid for Phase 1 which aims to understand the potential for industry to operate on low carbon fuels and the innovation required to enable this to happen. The study is complete and will be published here in due course. Phase 2 of the competition is now open to applications and will fund up to £300k for feasibility studies looking into developing technologies (technology readiness level 4-7) to enable the use of a low carbon fuel for a particular industrial process or across an entire site. Funding for Phase 2 is split equally into two lots. Each lot has £1.5m allocated to it, and projects may be up to £300k. Lot 1 is for projects that run a feasibility study on an innovative fuel switching technology. Lot 2 is for projects that run a feasibility study on an innovative approach fuel switching across an industrial site, or multiple sites.
