Industry
Industry Projects covers large-scale, demonstration and pilot hydrogen plants in Australia and New Zealand. It includes projects across the full asset life-cycle spectrum – from those under development, to those near or under construction, to those in operation.
One project is completed (Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain – Pilot Project). There are 20 projects that are Operating or Under Construction (19 in Australia, one in New Zealand) with a further 12 projects at an Advanced stage of development planning (10 in Australia and two in New Zealand). As hydrogen is presently in the market activation or pre-competitive phase, the large majority of projects are classified as ‘Under Development’; several of these have plans to be operational within the next three years. The projects listed cover the full spectrum of end-use activities, with a focus on hydrogen mobility, hydrogen in gas networks and industrial process-ammonia production.
A full description can be accessed by clicking on the specific Project Title. These project descriptions are based on publicly available information, however, in some cases the project proponents have provided additional details or advised they do not wish their project to be listed at this stage. Project information will be updated in real-time and supplemented by a half-yearly review process with project proponents.
Industry project activity locations can also be viewed on a map of Australia through Geoscience Australia’s AusH2 tool.
