The Tasmanian Green Hydrogen Hub at Bell Bay has progressed to the next stage by inviting potential industry partners to participate in shaping a sustainable future powered by renewable hydrogen. Minister for Energy and Renewables, Nick Duigan, emphasized that this milestone is crucial for Tasmania's position as a renewable energy powerhouse. The Registrations of Interest process aims to engage market participants, investors, and the broader energy sector in contributing to the project's success. With significant competitive advantages and support from the Commonwealth, the Hub is poised to attract investment, drive regional economic development, and create job opportunities. Bell Bay's attributes, such as its deep-water port, skilled workforce, and land availability, make it an ideal location for the Hub. The project is expected to generate numerous direct and indirect jobs, facilitate construction work for local trades, and contribute to the production of renewable hydrogen to fuel heavy vehicles. By 2025, the Hub is projected to be a transformative project aligning with Tasmania's goal of transitioning to a low-emission economy and strengthening its position as a renewable energy leader, in line with the 2030 Strong Plan for Tasmania's Future.
