bp is targeting sectors where the switch to electrification will be most difficult. One of these is heavy industry – where hydrogen will play an important role in decarbonizing high-grade industrial heat processes such as those in the steel, cement, refining, and petrochemical sectors, and as a feedstock for industries (i.e., iron and steel production, and ammonia for fertilizer, methanol and refining). Another is the transport sector – where hydrogen or fuels derived from hydrogen (e.g. ammonia, methanol or synthetic jet fuel) will provide low-carbon solutions for heavy-duty, long-haul segments of transport, including aviation, shipping and heavy goods vehicles.
