The Australian Government has unveiled its updated National Hydrogen Strategy with ambitious goals to become a major exporter of green hydrogen. The strategy aims to produce 15 million tonnes per year by 2050, extending to 30 million tonnes, supported by initiatives like the Hydrogen Production Tax Incentive and Hydrogen Headstart program. By focusing on sectors where Australia has comparative advantages, such as green metals and power generation, the government plans to use international investments to drive export projects and ensure reliable supply chains. The strategy aligns with the Future Made in Australia agenda and sets a base export target of 0.2 million tonnes with a stretch potential of 1.2 million tonnes, emphasizing partnerships with Germany, Japan, and South Korea. The Australian energy minister highlighted the country's readiness to lead in the hydrogen industry, while the CEO of the Australian Hydrogen Council praised the efforts to secure a place in the global hydrogen market.
