Lead on policy, regulation and subsidy issues in the UK and Ireland
RWE Generation’s Hydrogen Business

Jeremy started his career in waste regulation and then minerals and waste planning before moving into RWE Renewables’ onshore wind business in 2009. Latterly he was responsible for overseeing the development of onshore wind projects in Wales, including the now operational Mynydd y Gwair, Brechfa West and Clocaenog wind farms. He has now joined RWE Generation’s Hydrogen Business where he is leading on policy, regulation and subsidy issues in the UK and Ireland, and is actively supporting RWE’s green hydrogen development in the UK. With a renewables background and recent hydrogen experience he is well placed to provide a perspective on many of the challenges facing industrial decarbonisation in South Wales. RWE are a partner in the South Wales Industrial Cluster (SWIC) and Jeremy is here today to provide an overview of SWIC’s activities.
