Western Australia (WA) is well-placed to export locally made green hydrogen and ammonia to Europe via Mid West, according to the Trilateral Hydrogen Hub (TrHyHub) feasibility study – a joint initiative between the State Government, Mid West Ports Authority, the Netherlands’ Port of Rotterdam, and Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems.
As disclosed, the initiative investigated the potential to deliver a clean energy supply chain between the Oakajee Strategic Industrial Area (SIA) and Germany and found that exporting green ammonia through this area could be feasible through a single point mooring solution, with the Mid West offering a “unique combination of excellent renewable energy potential, high land availability, and political stability.”
