Green Industries Growth Accelerator: Hydrogen and CCUS supply chains call for evidence
This consultation is open for responses
Respond to this consultationSummary
DESNZ launches a call for evidence on hydrogen and CCUS supply chains under the £960 million Green Industries Growth Accelerator fund. The consultation seeks input on manufacturing capacity and supply chain bottlenecks in these sectors. GIGA forms part of a wider £4.5 billion manufacturing package targeting strategic clean energy sectors.
Why it matters
Industrial policy seeking to build domestic supply chains rather than addressing market failures that prevent deployment. The focus on manufacturing capacity treats investment as constrained by supply chains rather than by uncertain revenue streams or connection delays.
Key facts
- •£960 million fund allocation
- •Part of £4.5 billion manufacturing package
- •Covers CCUS, hydrogen, offshore wind, networks, and civil nuclear

Memo
The Green Industries Growth Accelerator (GIGA) is a £960 million fund to support the expansion of strong and sustainable clean energy supply chains across the UK, including: carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) and hydrogen; offshore wind and electricity networks; and civil nuclear. This is part of a wider £4.5 billion package of funding for manufacturing to support private sector investment in strategic sectors across the UK. GIGA will focus on supporting jobs and investment by expanding manufacturing capacity and removing supply chain bottlenecks.
