AGIG starts supplying hydrogen blended gas to Adelaide
Australian Gas Networks (AGN), part of Australian Gas Infrastructure Group (AGIG), has officially opened its A$14.5mn ($11.2mn) Hydrogen Park South Australia (HyP SA) green hydrogen plant and started adding the fuel into the Adelaide natural gas network, AGIG said on May 19.
AGN will provide a blend of 95% natural gas, 5% hydrogen to more than 700 homes in parts of the Adelaide suburb of Mitchell Park. AGN received a A$4.9mn grant from the South Australian government’s Renewable Technology Fund to build and operate the plant. HyP SA is an Australian first and one of only a few projects in the world to deliver a renewable gas blend to homes connected to an existing gas network, AGIG CEO Ben Wilson said. The hydrogen produced at HyP SA shows how we can use the state’s abundant solar and wind resources to deliver carbon-free gas to homes and businesses.”
In Australia, on behalf of the Australian Government, the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) has announced that it has conditionally approved A$103.3 million towards three commercial-scale renewable hydrogen projects, as part of its Renewable Hydrogen Deployment Funding Round.
The three successful projects are:
• Engie Renewables Australia Pty Ltd (Engie): ARENA will provide up to A$42.5 million towards a 10 MW electrolyzer project to produce renewable hydrogen in a consortium with Yara Pilbara Fertilizers at the existing ammonia facility in Karratha, Western Australia;
• ATCO Australia Pty Ltd (ATCO): ARENA will provide up to A$28.7 million towards a 10 MW electrolyzer for gas blending at ATCO’s Clean Energy Innovation Park in Warradarge, Western Australia;
