Can Hydrogen Secure Australia’s Iron Industry Competitiveness?

A recent report by Deloitte and WWF-Australia stresses the necessity of integrating renewable hydrogen into iron production, positioning it as Australia’s optimal strategy for sustaining competitive advantage in the evolving global market.

Drawing on concrete data, the report highlights that conventional iron production, dependent heavily on fossil fuels, contributes significantly to carbon emissions. In contrast, renewable hydrogen—a clean, sustainable energy carrier—has the potential to dramatically reduce emissions within the industry. The global push for decarbonization, with governmental bodies setting stringent carbon reduction targets, amplifies the urgency for such an innovation. The report underlines that transitioning to renewable hydrogen could reduce emissions in iron production by up to 90%, a statistic that cannot be overlooked in the current environmental climate.

Australia is uniquely placed to capitalize on this opportunity, given its abundant renewable energy resources and expertise in hydrogen technology. The analytics within the report identify that Australia’s vast solar and wind potential could supply low-cost, green electricity to produce renewable hydrogen at a competitive price point. This development would not only enhance Australia’s iron production sustainability but could position the country as a leader in exporting clean hydrogen technologies.

Existing industry players may face workforce challenges, as the skills required for hydrogen-based production differ significantly from those utilized in current operations. Addressing these educational gaps through targeted training programs will be essential in facilitating a smooth transition and capitalizing on new economic opportunities.
