Australia: Woodside signs Hydrogen MoU with Tasmanian Government
21 Jan 2021
Woodside Energy has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the State of Tasmania that outlines the Tasmanian Government’s support for the proposed
H2TAS project, a renewable hydrogen production facility at Bell Bay that capitalises on the State’s advantage in green energy.
In parallel with the MOU, Woodside has executed a non-binding term sheet with
Tasmanian natural gas retailer Tas Gas to develop a framework for blending (and for the potential associated sale of) green hydrogen into the Tasmanian gas network.
The MOU, announced today by Tasmanian Minister for Energy Guy Barnett, Minister for State Growth Michael Ferguson and Woodside’s Executive Vice President Sustainability Shaun Gregory, was signed by the Premier of Tasmania the Hon. Peter Gutwein and Woodside CEO Peter Coleman.
