Andrew WinProgrammes & Project Manager
Aberdeen City Council
Our Energy/Transport Challenge
Strategic aim : to become ‘a world-class energy hub leading a low carbon economy and at the forefront of hydrogen technology in Europe’
Local drivers
High pollution levels in some areas of the city centre
Highly skilled workforce in energy sector (oil and gas industry)
Accustomed to the use of hydrogen in industrial processes
Production of excess renewable energy (wind)
Policy drivers
Reduce cross-sector greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by 2020 and 80% by 2050 (Scotland)
Aberdeen City and Region Hydrogen Strategy 2015-2025
H2 Aberdeen
Aberdeen Hydrogen Bus Project
£21million demonstration project
Ten hydrogen fuel cell buses – largest fleet in Europe
Hydrogen production & re-fuelling station
Dedicated bus maintenance facility

Aberdeen City Hydrogen Energy Storage
Aberdeen’s 2nd Hydrogen Refuelling Station
130kg of hydrogen per day production
150kgs of storage capacity
Cooling to enable fast fuelling of cars and vans
Renewable HydrogenExpand production and distribution of renewable hydrogen:
Immediate/ Short term actions:
• Award of tender for supply and
distribution of 900kg /day of
hydrogen in Aberdeen and Dundee
Long Term Aspirational actions:
• Involve other cities and regions within
the supply and potentially expand delivery
to refuelling forecourts
Other Opportunities
Explore the roll-out of other tried and tested or innovative hydrogen uses:
• AECC Energy Centre - will provide district heating, cooling and electricity for the new AECC building and the two hotel developments. Hydrogen as a by product potential use.
• 100% Hydrogen Project - 100% Hydrogen network demonstration. SGN and ACC are working to provide a demonstration site.
Fuel Cell Installation
Fuel cell – Doosan 1.4MwE – largest static fuel cell installation in UK
Provide heating and electricity for the new AECC building and the two hotel developments.
High Efficiency- Up to 90% total CHP Efficiency
Modular and Scalable
Reduce emission by over 50% in comparison to conventional methods
Forms part of the H2 Aberdeen initiative to develop hydrogen and fuel cell technology in Aberdeen City
