It was the trade body’s third annual awards, where the winners were announced in a ceremony in Birmingham, recognising work across finance and investment, community engagement, industrial applications, transport and more.
In an opening speech, Hydrogen UK Vice-President and Honeywell Director and Head of Government Relations, Willie Coetzee, said the sector was broadly on the right track, compared with other energy scale-ups.
“If we apply ourselves, if we work together and work towards that common goal, we can stay the course and enable some of these barrier-breaking opportunities to get us there faster,” he said.
