Australia’s pipeline of hydrogen projects is the largest in the world.
We have up to A$300 billion of potential hydrogen investments (Source: Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water, Australia’s National Hydrogen Strategy, 2023). This includes projects for domestic use and large-scale exports.
For investors, our global competitive advantage rests on four factors:
- The combination of vast solar and wind resources. Australia’s generating capacity from renewables is set to rise rapidly over the coming decade.
- World-leading hydrogen and energy regulation. This includes industry-leading certification and interoperability.
- Our reputation as a safe destination for investors. Australia’s resources sector is already our largest export sector — thanks mostly to overseas investors.
- Ready export markets. Australia is an established energy supplier to fast-growing economies in Asia. We are developing supply chains through multiple international partnerships.
Australia has a strong track record for building new energy exports. Over the past two decades, we have grown our liquefied natural gas (LNG) export industry into one of the world’s biggest. Today, we’re on track to become a renewable energy superpower.
