Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners, a green infrastructure investor, is embarking on a groundbreaking project in central Queensland, Australia. The company will utilize renewable energy, storage projects, and green hydrogen to produce 'green iron' at a planned $3.5 billion facility. The green iron project involves mining a substantial amount of magnetite ore, estimated at 465 million tonnes, which will be converted to green iron using renewable hydrogen. This initiative is part of Quinbrook's strategy to develop clean energy manufacturing in partnership with Central Queensland Metals near Gladstone. The project is aligned with the Australian government's drive for domestic clean energy manufacturing and minerals processing, as evidenced by the significant support measures outlined in the recent federal budget. Quinbrook's ambitious endeavor has the potential to create new infrastructure investment opportunities and export avenues in the region. With plans to scale up the green hydrogen production capacity and engage in joint ventures, the project signifies a significant step towards a sustainable energy future in Australia.
