Charles Darwin University Pioneers Hydrogen Production in the Northern Territory

Charles Darwin University (CDU) has successfully produced hydrogen in the Northern Territory, marking a significant leap towards establishing a thriving hydrogen generation industry.

This achievement not only positions CDU as a leader in renewable energy research but also contributes to the Northern Territory Government’s vision of becoming a hub for hydrogen technology research, production, and use.

CDU’s venture into hydrogen production aligns with broader goals of fostering a skilled workforce for the renewable energy and green hydrogen industry. The university aims to utilize its unique facility not only for skill development but also as an innovation platform to test and advance new hydrogen and renewable technologies.

The heart of CDU’s achievement lies in a state-of-the-art hydrogen electrolyser and fuel cell system. The electrolyser employs electrolysis to split water into hydrogen and oxygen gases, with the generated hydrogen stored for future use. The fuel cell, in turn, combines hydrogen with oxygen from the air to produce electricity without harmful emissions, offering a green energy solution.

CDU has collaborated with Pacific Energy, a specialist in power generating assets, to design, install, and commission a containerized system housing the electrolyser and fuel cell. Located at CDU’s Renewable Energy Microgrid Hub for Applied Research and Training (REMHART) facility, this setup not only facilitates research and training but also holds potential benefits for deployment in remote communities.

The REMHART facility, a cornerstone in supporting the Northern Territory Government’s vision for a renewable energy future, received $2 million in funding from the Commonwealth Government through the Strategic University Reform Fund (SURF) program. The government envisions the Northern Territory as a key player in hydrogen technology research, production, and use.

CDU’s REMHART facility serves as a collaborative space for research with various industries and government entities. The venture not only supports CDU’s commitment to sustainable energy solutions but also aligns with the economic potential of Australia’s hydrogen industry, estimated to generate $50 billion in additional GDP and create over 16,000 jobs in regional Australia by 2050.
