GeoPura, a leading provider of zero-emission hydrogen power solutions, has joined the Tees Maritime Cluster, reinforcing Teesside’s growing reputation as a national leader in clean energy deployment, industrial decarbonisation and sustainability.
GeoPura operates at the forefront of the UK’s hydrogen transition, delivering reliable, zero-emission power to live industrial, infrastructure and event settings. Its decision to join the cluster reflects both the scale of opportunity on Teesside and the region’s ability to move clean technologies from concept to real-world delivery.
Teesside is already home to one of the UK’s most concentrated ecosystems of ports, energy-intensive industry, manufacturing and offshore activity. This makes it a uniquely credible testbed for hydrogen solutions that must operate in demanding, safety-critical environments. GeoPura’s presence strengthens that ecosystem and accelerates collaboration across maritime, energy and industrial sectors.
Jo Vinton-Bullwinkel, Operations Director at Tees Maritime Cluster, said:
“GeoPura joining the cluster is a strong signal of where real momentum in hydrogen and clean power is happening. Teesside isn’t just setting ambitions, we’re delivering projects, building capability and creating the conditions for innovation to scale. Having a company like GeoPura at the table benefits our members directly, bringing practical expertise, live project insight and new opportunities to collaborate across the maritime and industrial landscape.”
For Tees Maritime members, GeoPura’s involvement will support:
- Greater access to hydrogen expertise grounded in operational delivery
- Cross-sector collaboration between ports, logistics, energy and manufacturing
- Opportunities to pilot, demonstrate and de-risk zero-emission power solutions
- A stronger, more credible collective voice in national clean growth discussions
Clusters are most effective when innovators and operators work side by side. GeoPura’s approach, focused on delivery rather than theory, aligns closely with the cluster’s mission to support practical decarbonisation and long-term regional competitiveness.
Derek Bulmer, Chief Financial Officer at GeoPura, said:
“Teesside plays a critical role in the UK’s industrial and maritime economy, and it also has the ingredients to lead on clean power delivery. Joining the Tees Maritime Cluster allows us to work alongside organisations that want to move from ambition to action. We bring real-world experience from deploying hydrogen power at scale, and we look forward to collaborating with members to support practical projects, reduce emissions on site, and strengthen the region’s position as a centre for hydrogen and clean energy innovation.”
GeoPura designs, manufactures and operates Hydrogen Power Units (HPUs) that provide reliable, zero-emission electricity. The HPUs are manufactured in the North East, in collaboration with Siemens Energy, combining industrial-scale engineering with proven fuel cell technology. GeoPura’s systems use hydrogen to deliver clean power for industrial, infrastructure, maritime and event environments, producing only water at the point of use, no carbon, no NOx or particulate emissions. GeoPura also supplies certified low-carbon hydrogen and manages on-site storage, logistics and refuelling, giving customers a fully integrated solution that supports practical decarbonisation without compromising performance or resilience.
GeoPura joins a growing network of organisations working through the Tees Maritime Cluster to position Teesside as a leading UK hub for maritime, energy and industrial innovation, with hydrogen playing a central role in the region’s future growth.
