Tower Group Logo

Energising innovation, powering resilience.

Tower is a sustainable infrastructure developer with an emphasis on green hydrogen and low-carbon fuels. Working with leading industry and academic partners, our initial focus is on a hydrogen production, processing and refuelling hub in Exeter, Devon, and a green hydrogen maritime ecosystem around Appledore Docks in northern Devon.

Filling a gap

The UK urgently needs more investment in hydrogen infrastructure to level up the country and deliver on net zero promises. To support this, we are developing two green hydrogen production and distribution opportunities in South West England and plan to build out this portfolio to solidify our position as a leader in green energy innovation.

Strategy

We aim to become a nationally recognised future fuel project developer building next-gen demand concurrently with supply by:

  • Investing in and manage commercial real estate to provide stable revenue, unlock future fuel development and facilitate co-location with complementary industry players.
  • Building projects in consortia with off-take partners, initially focused on the maritime, road haulage, farming, mining sectors within the South West of England.
  • Expanding geographic reach with the addition of other major hydrogen and clean fuel infrastructure projects across the UK that support the country’s net zero targets.
  • Driving shareholder value by increasing asset valuation and demonstrating that decarbonisation, revenue generation, environmental sensitivity and social value add are not mutually exclusive.

Exeter H2 Hub

We are leading a consortium dedicated to advancing a groundbreaking regional initiative in East Devon, aimed at fuelling the expansion of the South West’s hydrogen sector. Following the launch of our inaugural 5 MW pilot plant equipped with mobile refuelling capabilities in 2026, our strategic roadmap involves substantial scaling, with plans to increase the project’s capacity to up to 60 MW. Consortium members include Element 2, Wales & West Utilities, Oort Energy Ltd, Exeter University’s Centre for Future Clean Mobility, Costain, Emotive, Gardiner & Theobald, and PKF Francis Clark.

Appledore Docks

We lead the ZeroBoat consortium, which is looking to develop the first end-to-end clean maritime ecosystem in Appledore, northern Devon. The consortium members range from academia to boat builders and operators and include The Centre for Future Clean Mobility (University of Exeter), OS-Energy, Severn Seas Shipping Co, Ecomar Propulsion, Connected Places Catapult, Aluminium Marine Consultants and Oort Energy. The initial target sectors are offshore wind support and aquaculture workboats.
