Canford Renewable Energy (CRE)

Green hydrogen production refers to generating hydrogen by splitting water using electricity derived from renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, or hydro, resulting in minimal direct greenhouse gas emissions.[10] In the Barrow project, approximately 100 GWh of hydrogen per year will be produced using renewable electricity contracted under long-term power agreements, qualifying the hydrogen as green and contributing to the decarbonization of Kimberly-Clark’s industrial operations.[3][4]

Landfill gas utilisation for hydrogen projects refers to using gas generated by decomposing waste—primarily methane and carbon dioxide—as an energy input to produce low-carbon hydrogen, either by generating renewable electricity to power electrolysers or by reforming the gas directly.[1] In the South Coast/Dorset green hydrogen hub, the plant is described as landfill gas and solar-powered, meaning that gas collected from the landfill is converted into electricity which, together with solar PV, drives hydrogen production, thereby turning a waste by-product into a decarbonisation resource.[1][7]

Dorset (South Coast of England)

An operational green hydrogen hub in Dorset on England’s south coast that uses electricity generated from landfill gas and solar PV to produce around 120 tonnes of green hydrogen per year for regional customers.

Compressed green hydrogen produced using landfill gas and solar-powered electrolysis at the Dorset/South Coast facility, intended for use in mobility, industrial trials, and off-grid power applications as part of Protium’s national green hydrogen portfolio.
