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.”

The Canadian federal government is financially supporting the development of a large-scale advanced compressed air energy storage (A-CAES) project capable of providing up to 12 hours of energy storage.
A-CAES solutions provider Hydrostor told Energy-Storage.news yesterday that a planned 300-500MW system is being supported with the funds through the government’s natural resources department and Sustainable Development Technology Canada, a government-created clean energy funding foundation.
Natural Resources Canada is providing around CA$4 million (US$3.2 million) through its Energy Innovation Program, while Hydrostor did not reveal how much Sustainable Development Technology Canada is putting into the project. The technology company did say the funding will go towards completing essential engineering and planning work, enabling the p
Europeans showcase Australian green hydrogen project

The European Commission has singled out the South Australian green hydrogen export hub in its Hydrogen Valleys Initiative for its ambition to overcome technology barriers to the production, distribution, storage and use of hydrogen at a gigawatt scale.
The project was selected by the European Commission under the auspices of Mission Innovation (MI) following a global search of forty case studies from Australia, Austria, Chile, China, EU, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, the UK and the USA.

Under the first phase of the project – the demonstrator phase – H2U will develop a 75 megawatt electrolysis plant and an ammonia production facility, with an annual capacity of 40,000 tonnes.
