West Dunbartonshire Hydrogen power plant given the green light in Clydebank

Construction of a new hydrogen facility in Clydebank which will fuel HGVs and local buses while tackling climate change has been given the green light.

Development of the plastics-to hydrogen facility and hydrogen refuelling station, which will take plastics which would otherwise be sent to landfill and convert it into electricity, will be built on the vacant land at Rothesay Dock next year and is expected to open in 2024/25.

The proposals will also include a thermal conversion plant that will convert waste plastic into hydrogen electricity, before being exported to the local electricity grid.
