Commissioning & Performance Testing Guidance
Posted 07.04.2025
The guidance document focuses on the minimum requirement for OCP performance tests for OCPs 3, 7 and 8; related to Hydrogen Production, Hydrogen Storage Infrastructure and Hydrogen Transport Infrastructure. This document is intended for use by Hydrogen Allocation Round 1 (HAR1) projects for electrolytic facilities only and aligns with the LCHA (LCHA FEA and LCHA Standard T&Cs) agreed with those projects.
This guidance should be read in conjunction with the performance testing Annex 2 in the LCHA and UK Low Carbon Hydrogen Standard (LCHS) which sets thresholds for the GHG Emissions Intensity of the Hydrogen produced, including as part of Performance Testing.
