Global energy giant BP is actively pursuing three ambitious renewable hydrogen projects in Australia, highlighting the country's potential as a leading supplier of green hydrogen. Despite challenges like high production costs and a limited customer base, BP is repurposing the site of Kwinana oil refinery into a hub for clean energy. The Australian government's significant investments in green hydrogen aim to promote its adoption as a clean energy source to replace fossil fuels in heavy-polluting industries. While companies like Origin Energy have backed out of hydrogen production ventures, BP remains positive about the future demand for green hydrogen. The company believes that hydrogen will play a crucial role in decarbonizing sectors like heavy manufacturing, where a shift to lower-carbon electricity is challenging. BP's focus on 'green hydrogen' production, which involves using renewable energy to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen, aligns with global efforts to reduce carbon emissions. Despite the higher costs associated with green hydrogen compared to 'grey hydrogen', BP is committed to its projects in Australia and other countries. The government's support, along with access to renewable electricity and customers, is seen as vital for the success of the Australian green hydrogen industry.
