Project description

H2TAS is a proposed commercial scale, renewable hydrogen and ammonia (from electrolysis) production facility to be located in the Bell Bay area of Tasmania. The proposed opportunity proposes to use electricity sourced from the grid from renewable sources and to procure renewable energy certificates to abate remaining emissions.

H2TAS is planned to be a phased development, targeting an initial capacity of up to 550 tonnes per day of ammonia.

Woodside continues to evaluate the cost and schedule impacts of the renewable power solutions that would enable the project to progress.

Woodside is operator and holds a 100% participating interest.

In its half yearly report for the period ended 30 June 2024, the project proponent noted that it had withdrawn environmental applications submitted under the Environmental Management and Pollution Control Act 1994 and Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (with the proponent also noting that it continues to assess the viability of this potential opportunity.)

Note: The proposed opportunity is subject to commercial arrangements, commercial feasibility, regulatory, Joint Venture approvals (where applicable), and third-party activities (which may or may not proceed). Individual investment decisions are subject to Woodside’s investment targets. Not guidance.
