A new report by Australia's national science agency, CSIRO, has highlighted the immense potential for Australia in hydrogen electrolyser manufacturing (HEM). The report projects that the HEM sector could generate $1.7 billion in revenue and create nearly 4000 jobs by 2050, positioning Australia as a key player in the global transition to renewable hydrogen production. Vivek Srinivasan, CSIRO Futures Energy Lead, emphasized the need for timely action to capitalize on this opportunity. The report underscores Australia's strong starting position with an emerging cohort of Australian electrolyser manufacturers and a domestic pipeline of projects seeking to produce renewable hydrogen. Key recommendations from the report include a coordinated approach across research, industry, and government to maximize the potential of Australia's HEM sector. Strategies such as aggregated demand, sovereign capabilities, international partnerships, and strategic manufacturing hubs are proposed to enhance the industry. Dr. Patrick Hartley, Leader of CSIRO’s Hydrogen Industry Mission, highlighted the window of opportunity for Australia to capture a share of the global electrolyser market. The report also identifies growth potential in electrolyser installation services, with projections of an additional $1.2 billion in revenue and 1,000 jobs by 2050. Overall, the sentiment of the article is positive, emphasizing the economic and environmental benefits of Australia establishing a significant presence in the electrolyser market.
