UK government agrees £150 million deal to support the country’s last ethylene production plant
The UK government has agreed a £150 million support package for the Grangemouth industrial complex. The site houses the UK’s last remaining ethylene production plant, following ExxonMobil’s decision in November to close the Fife Ethylene plant in nearby Mossmorran in early 2026, and Sabic’s decision earlier in the year not to re-start its Olefins 6 cracker in Wilton.
