BP’s renewable hydrogen project in Kwinana, Western Australia, has officially entered the front-end engineering and design stage, with production expected to commence in 2026. The H2Kwinana project, a collaborative effort with Macquarie Capital, aims to leverage a 100-MW electrolyzer, with plans for expansion to an impressive 1.5 GW in subsequent phases.
For a hydrogen production unit at its Kwinana biorefinery in Western Australia, British Petroleum (bp) has awarded French Technip Energies a contract valued between $50 million and $250 million. This is in support of the proposed project to produce sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and biodiesel from renewable feedstocks.
Western Australia (WA) has unveiled a promising endeavor that could redefine its energy landscape. The completion of a comprehensive feasibility study marks a significant milestone in the potential establishment of a large-scale green hydrogen production facility.
Kwinana, located south of Perth, is set to become a hub for cutting-edge clean energy research and training. The Kwinana Energy Transformation Hub (KETH), spearheaded by the Future Energy Exports Cooperative Research Centre (FEnEx CRC), has been awarded a major grant to develop an industrial-scale facility dedicated to researching, testing, and demonstrating decarbonization technologies for the energy industry.
