Rotork has manufactured the first UK-made IQ3 Pro electric actuators for the Liverpool Bay carbon capture transport and storage project, a key part of the HyNet low-carbon industrial cluster. These actuators will support safe and efficient CO₂ transportation for permanent offshore storage, contributing to regional decarbonisation and boosting UK manufacturing and engineering capabilities.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Industrial.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You can now tap UK-made electric actuators proven on nationally significant carbon capture infrastructure, opening a route to supply decarbonisation projects that value local engineering and manufacturing. This raises the bar for suppliers in low-carbon industrial clusters like HyNet.
