Feasibility study completed for green hydrogen energy hub in Australia

BP has announced the completion of its concept development phase study for the H2Kwinana green hydrogen project in Australia. The study has identified two potential base case scenarios for the project, with the hub capable of producing either 44 tonnes per day or 143 tonnes per day of green hydrogen. Additionally, a growth target of 429 tonnes per day has been selected as the third and final case.

The feasibility study was supported by AUD70 million (USD 44.9 million) from the state government's AUD180 million (USD115.24 million) investment into renewable hydrogen as part of its 2050 net zero transition plan. The development brings BP closer to making a final investment decision for the H2Kwinana project. The potential hub will not only provide a renewable hydrogen supply for domestic and export markets but also support the establishment of new green industries.

To produce green hydrogen, the project will rely on electrical power derived from renewable energy sources or by procuring Renewable Electricity Certificates. The green hydrogen produced will have various applications, including usage by BP, other industrial customers, tube trailer loading, and vehicle refuelling.
