Fortescue Metals, led by Andrew Forrest, has manually produced its first “home-grown” hydrogen electrolysers at its Gladstone “gigafactory.” These 1MW PEM electrolysers, to be automated soon, mark a pivotal development for Fortescue’s participation in the Australian federal government’s $2 billion Hydrogen Head-start program.

China's Ambitious Push for Hydrogen Energy

China, the world’s largest producer of greenhouse gas emissions, has emerged as a key player in the quest for carbon neutrality. To achieve its ambitious goals, the country is harnessing its vast resources and technology to revolutionize its energy sector. One of the central pillars of this campaign is the development of the hydrogen energy industry, a promising clean fuel source with the potential to significantly reduce carbon emissions, particularly in sectors that are challenging to electrify.

ATCO Australia and BOC Become Preferred Partners for Whyalla Hydrogen Project

South Australia is set to become a global leader in green hydrogen production with a groundbreaking project in Whyalla. The state government has selected a consortium comprising ATCO Australia and BOC, a British industrial gas and engineering group, as preferred partners to build a massive 250 MW hydrogen production facility, a 200 MW hydrogen power plant, and a hydrogen storage facility in the Upper Spencer Gulf.
