Proposed Hydrogen Production Facility at Former Coal Site in Neath Port Talbot
Dynevor Limited has submitted proposals for a hydrogen production facility utilizing biomass gasification at the Abernant Colliery site. The facility could generate up to 175 kg of hydrogen per hour, contributing to waste reduction in surrounding areas.

Proposals have been made for a biomass gasification plant aimed at hydrogen production at the Abernant Colliery site in Pontardawe. Dynevor Limited has requested a screening opinion from Neath Port Talbot Council regarding the need for an environmental assessment for a full planning application.
The facility is designed to convert low-grade waste wood and other waste streams into clean syngas and hydrogen, with a potential output of 175 kg of hydrogen per hour from an annual processing of 50,000 tonnes of waste. This initiative could significantly reduce landfill waste across Neath Port Talbot, Carmarthenshire, Swansea, Powys, and Pembrokeshire, aligning with regional waste management goals.
