EET Hydrogen Signs EPC Contract with ENKA for 350 MW Low Carbon Hydrogen Plant
Essar Energy Transition (EET) Hydrogen has signed an EPC contract with ENKA for its flagship low carbon hydrogen production plant (HPP1) with a planned production capacity of 350 MW at the Stanlow Manufacturing Complex in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire. It will capture around 600,000 tonnes of CO2 a year.

In October 2024, the UK Government announced funding had been agreed to support HPP1 as the UK’s first large-scale low carbon hydrogen project at the heart of the HyNet Cluster. HPP1 will have a production capacity of 350 MW and will capture around 600,000 tonnes of CO2 a year – the equivalent to taking around 250,000 cars off the road.
This represents a major milestone for the HPP1 project, for the UK hydrogen industry, the HyNet Cluster and for EET Hydrogen’s progress towards its goal of developing 4 GW of low carbon hydrogen production for industrial businesses across the North West of England to decarbonise their operations, protecting jobs and driving economic growth.
Commenting on the development, Joe Seifert, CEO of EET Hydrogen, said, “Following a highly competitive tender process, we are excited to announce this critical contract with ENKA. Having been awarded over 580 contracts in 57 countries, ENKA has an excellent track record in delivering complex projects like HPP1. The team brings a wealth of experience, and we are delighted to partner with as we deliver on our ambition to become the UK’s premier producer of low carbon hydrogen.”
Hakan Kozan, Member of the Executive Committee at ENKA, remarked, “We are thrilled to partner with EET Hydrogen on the HPP1 project, a transformative initiative that will play a key role in advancing the UK’s low carbon hydrogen industry and contributing to global decarbonisation efforts.”
He further added, “As a global engineering and construction company, we bring expertise, engineered solutions, and a commitment to excellence to every project we undertake. This project reinforces our commitment to supporting the HyNet Cluster’s mission of reducing emissions and fostering sustainable economic growth. We look forward to delivering a safe and successful project for our distinguished customer.”
