The Net Zero Technology Centre and ERM have announced the launch of the Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carrier (LOHC) for hydrogen transport from Scotland (LHyTS) project, which will export of hydrogen from Scotland to Rotterdam.
The LHyTS project seeks to demonstrate that LOHC, in the form of methylcyclohexane (MCH), can be transported at scale, providing an export route to the Port of Rotterdam and other European destinations.
The project will be delivered by a consortium including Axens, Chiyoda, EnQuest, ERM, Koole Terminals, Port of Rotterdam, Scottish Government, Shetland Islands Council, Storegga and the Net Zero Technology Centre. The partners will work together undertaking engineering studies to develop a pilot project as a precursor to large-scale export.
