Welcome to Hydrogen Roadmap

Australia’s ambition is to become a renewable energy super power, decarbonise our economy and increase clean energy exports to contribute to regional and global decarbonisation. Australian-made hydrogen will be essential to making our ambition a reality.

As a fuel hydrogen produces no carbon emissions, only water.

We can use it:

• to blend with (or replace) natural gas for homes, industry and cooking

• for fuel cells to generate electricity to power cars, trucks, buses and trains

• to store energy and generate electricity for mining sites and remote communities

• as an industrial chemical feedstock for products such as ammonia, fertiliser and iron

• to trade clean energy with other countries.

Australia has an abundance of natural resources to make clean hydrogen for our own use and to supply the world.

The Australian Government has a vision to build a clean, innovative, safe and competitive hydrogen industry that benefits all Australians. Since the release of Australia’s National Hydrogen Strategy in 2019 there is now a $127 billion pipeline of announced hydrogen investment in Australia.
