commercial scale, the project could produce 225,000 tpy of
low-carbon blue H2
, according to the partners.
Hyzon has also announced plans to build a green H2 fueling
depot for towing trucks. The station will be completed
in 2023, and the company hopes to expand these types of
refueling depots in other areas of the country. Clara Energy

power FCEVs and supply BOC's industrial customers. Since
the closure of the bp refinery at Bulwer Island, BOC has
transported H2
from its Altona facility in Melbourne, Victoria
to Bulwer Island in high-pressure tube trailers, resulting
in 90,000 kg of CO2
distribution network along the Hume
Highway-the highway runs from Melbourne to Sydney.
This highway will also see several companies build new H2
refueling stations, which are focused on decarbonizing the
long-haul, heavy transport sector.
The state will also be the location of the Gippsland South
East Australia CCS project. The goal of the project is to use
existing infrastructure to store CO2
in the depleted Bream
field off the coast of Gippsland. The project intends to
capture 2 MMtpy of CO2
. At the time of this publication, the
project was in the feasibility stage, with operations scheduled
to begin in the mid-2020s.
In Queensland, the Australian Hydrogen Council has
provided $275 MM to set up two additional H2
hubs: Gladstone
and Townsville. These two cities join five others
that will aid in the nation's H2
production plan. The $3.5-B
H2-Hub Gladstone project includes the construction of
3 GW of electrolyzer capacity to produce 5,000 tpd of
green ammonia. FID is scheduled to be taken in 2023, with
operations commencing in 2025. The plant can be expanded,
if needed. The green ammonia will be sold to Orica, a
mining explosives manufacturer.
Origin Energy is working with Japan's Kawasaki Heavy
Industries on a green liquid H2
export project in Townsville.
Furthermore, APA Group is building a power-to-gas
demonstration plant at its Wallumbilla gas hub near Roma
to create methane using solar-generated electricity, water
and CO2

74 GJ of methane, which can be injected into APA Group's
natural gas pipelines across the East Coast Gas Grid.
BOC Ltd., together with partners ITM Power, Queensland

green H2 and solar photovoltaic developments. Construction
of the $500-MM project is expected to start in 3Q 2022.

In Tasmania, Woodside plans to develop a large-scale
and ammonia complex in the Bell Bay area.
Phase 1 of the H2TAS project envisions a 300-MW electrolyzer
to produce 200,000 tpy of green ammonia. The
complex has the ability to scaleup electrolyzer capacity to
1.7 GW, if necessary.

on developing H2
construction of H2

refueling stations. For example, two H2
refueling stations have been opened in Shanghai since 2019,
and the government has declared a target of 1,000 stations
by 2030, along with 1 MM FCEVs in use on China's roads
within the same timeframe. Also, China's green H2
production
is forecast to reach 200,000 tpy by 2025, and several
CCS projects are taking place (e.g., Sinopec's mega-ton
Qilu-Shengli Oilfield CCUS project and Yangchang Petroleum
Group's CCUS project in the Shaanxi province).

a 300-MW solar array. Operations are scheduled to begin
in mid-2023. Sinopec has vowed to spend more than
$4.5 B on H2
