Hydrogen energy development potential Australia has the potential to become the world's
and opportunities in Australia largest producer of hydrogen.
Australia has natural advantages in terms of At present, the global layout of the hydrogen
geography, population and energy, and its energy industry has been initially launched, and
hydrogen energy industry has great potential for all major countries around the world have made
development, mainly because of the following hydrogen energy development a national strategy.
reasons: 1. Australia is rich in fossil energy Facing the rare development opportunities and the
resources such as coal and natural gas, which can huge advantages of hydrogen energy development,
be used to produce sufficient hydrogen. 2. Australia Australia has formulated and issued relevant
has a perfect coal industry chain and perfect strategic documents to encourage and support
natural gas production, liquefaction, storage and the development of clean, innovative, safe and
transportation infrastructure and professional competitive hydrogen energy industry, striving to
technical support, which can play a role in all occupy a place in the global layout of the hydrogen
aspects of the hydrogen energy industry chain. 3. energy industry.
Australia is close to the Asian market and has good
trade relations with China, Japan and South Korea. The relationship between hydrogen
In view of the demand for hydrogen energy in the energy and the grid in Australia
Asian market, there is great potential for exporting Australia has made the adoption of hydrogen power
hydrogen energy in the future. 4. Australia has generation one of its key strategies, marking an
abundant renewable energy resources such as important step in the transition to a clean grid as
solar energy and wind energy with high utilization the cost of hydrogen production decreases and the
rate, which can be used to generate electricity availability of large-scale hydrogen storage and
and produce hydrogen. The IEA has noted that transportation becomes more widespread.
