UK Invests £22B in Carbon Capture and Hydrogen Projects to Power Clean Energy Revolution 🚀
The UK government has committed nearly £22 billion 🏗️ to develop two major carbon capture and storage (CCUS) clusters 🌍 in Teesside and Merseyside. These projects aim to cut 8.5 million tonnes of carbon emissions annually 🌱, create 4,000 jobs 👷, and attract £8 billion in private investment 💼. Using CCUS technology, the UK will decarbonize heavy industries like steel and cement 🏭, contributing to the goal of net-zero emissions by 2050 🌿. The initiative is expected to reshape the energy sector ⚡ and support 50,000 jobs long-term, adding £5 billion yearly to the economy 📈 by 2050.
