Moorside clean energy hub is a proposal put forward on 30 June 2020 by two consortia, one led by EDF and the other by Rolls-Royce, to create an energy hub that would produce electricity and hydrogen through the use of nuclear power and renewable energy.
The hub would be constructed on the cancelled Moorside nuclear power station site, which was abandoned by Toshiba in 2018.
