Cadent has announced plans for the HEast Pipeline: Humber to Nottinghamshire, aimed at supplying low-carbon hydrogen to industries in the Humber, Lincolnshire, and Nottinghamshire regions. Spanning approximately 150km (93 miles) from Immingham to Newark, the underground pipeline will facilitate the transition from natural gas to hydrogen for manufacturers in sectors such as steel, chemicals, and food.

This project is part of the broader East Coast Hydrogen initiative, which connects hydrogen production and storage with industrial users. Cadent is in the early planning stages and will seek public feedback on the proposals later this year. The pipeline's development is expected to follow the Government's Development Consent Order process, taking four to five years from initiation to decision.
