Baths Hall to host first Humber Industrial Decarbonisation Conference 

Baths Hall, in Scunthorpe, is set to host the first Humber Industrial Decarbonisation Conference, the council announced. 

Key organisations across the Humber region that are involved in decarbonisation projects will join together in a bid to support and promote opportunities for businesses and students. 

The council have confirmed that Phillips 66, SSE, Drax, Centrica, Equinor, National Grid Ventures and VPI-Immingham will all be involved at the conference. 

Taking place on Tuesday 7 June, this free event is a great chance for SME and supply chain businesses to understand what is necessary to “capture carbon dioxide before it goes into the atmosphere as a greenhouse gas” 

Additionally, the conference will assist North Lincolnshire Council’s understanding of further steps to meet their pledge of Net Zero by 2030. 

“This includes local support for the development of public/private partnerships to develop and best environmental practice across the region and ensuring a greater use of renewable energy across all sectors”, the council stated. 

The event has been organised by the Humber Industrial Cluster Plan (HICP), supported by Phillips 66 and VPI combined heat and power plant. 

Katie Hedges, Director of Low Carbon Strategy at CATCH, in Stallingborough, said: 

“This event will bring together key stakeholders who are actively involved with decarbonisation activities and projects in the Humber region” 

“The Humber: A 2030 Vision for Industrial Decarbonisation Map, created in collaboration with Marketing Humber, is being brought to life, with companies featured on the map taking exhibition space and hosting breakout sessions”, she added. 

“The Humber Industrial Cluster plan, led by the HEY LEP and CATCH, alongside industrial partners, will showcase what is happening in the region, the opportunities available and provide visitors with access to key people from prominent companies across the decarbonisation space”
