Australia to inject $511m in Murchison Green Hydrogen project

The 1500-megawatt project is being developed by Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners.

Australia’s Hydrogen Headstart Program will be injecting $511m (AUD814m) in funding to the Murchison Green Hydrogen (MGH) Project in Western Australia.

The first to be awarded funding under the programme, the 1500-megawatt project is being developed by Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP).

The hydrogen and ammonia production facility will operate completely off-grid. Stage 1 is planned to be powered by 1,200 megawatts (MW) of solar photovoltaic power, 1,700 MW of onshore wind, and 600 MW per two-hour battery energy storage system.

The renewable ammonia could be exported to Japan, the Republic of Korea, Singapore or Europe.
