Fortescue has initiated a groundbreaking project, the Green Metal Project, in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, to establish a green metal supply chain. The AUD$75 million project, located at the Green Energy Hub at Christmas Creek, is set to produce more than 1,500 tonnes of green metal annually starting in 2025. By utilizing green hydrogen from Fortescue's hydrogen facility and an electric smelting furnace, the project aims to create high purity green metal suitable for global steel production. Dr. Andrew Forrest, the executive chairman of Fortescue, emphasized the significance of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the iron and steel industry. The integration of green sustainable mining, renewable power, and green hydrogen is paving the way for a new green industry in Australia. The Green Energy Hub features various hydrogen facilities, including a green hydrogen plant, hydrogen refueling station, and liquid hydrogen storage, supporting the operation of hydrogen-powered vehicles and prototypes. Fortescue's commitment to sustainability is evident through the development of prototypes such as the hydrogen-powered haul truck, battery electric haul truck, and fast charger prototype. These initiatives highlight the company's dedication to decarbonization and innovation in the mining and steel production sectors. By leveraging renewable energy sources and green technologies, Fortescue is leading the way in building a sustainable and environmentally friendly metal supply chain.
