Project description
This project will develop a renewables-based hydrogen production facility planned to be located in Victoria.
This project will provide a source of renewable hydrogen to support the adoption of fuel-cell-based power systems in stationary and mobility applications.
The facility will comprise a 1MW electrolyser with compression and storage together with dispensing facilities for manpacks and tube trailers.
Renewable energy for the electrolyser will be sourced via the grid primarily during low demand / low price periods, thereby helping reduce the cost of hydrogen production and contributing to grid stability. Production will be scaled according to demand.
The Victorian Government is supporting the project through an award of AUD$1,000,000 through its Renewable Hydrogen Commercialisation Pathways Fund.
