The Shoreham Port Industrial Cluster Local Industrial Decarbonisation Plan is now live.
We have brought together expertise from colleagues at Adur & Worthing Councils, Barrett Steel Limited, Brighton & Hove City Council, CEMEX UK, Local Fuels Ltd, Ricardo plc and University of Sussex to form the Shoreham Port Industrial Cluster. In January 2024, the Cluster was successful in an application to the Local Industrial Decarbonisation Plans Competition funded by Department of Energy Security and Net Zero and delivered by Innovate UK, to support the development of place-based decarbonisation plans, demonstrating collaboration between closely located industrial businesses.
Following a year long collaborative process of wide-ranging research, in-depth analysis, scenario modelling and consultation, our Local Industrial Decarbonisation Plan is now available to view, setting out the process, options and scenarios for decarbonising the Shoreham Port Industrial Cluster.
The plan demonstrates how the Cluster can build on the long history and strengths of a Trust Port as it evolves into a zero-carbon centre for trade, employment, and inclusive community engagement.
Our region has unparalleled natural assets, coupled with extensive Port facilities, renewable power generation, investment-ready land serviced by extensive supply chains and the ambition to play a leading role in the country's net zero journey.
