The Western Australian renewable hydrogen industry

Our goal is for Western Australia to be a clean energy powerhouse. 

As an important first step, we are partnering with the private sector to invest in renewable energy infrastructure and facilitate regulatory approvals for renewable generation projects. 

Developing a new renewable hydrogen industry, combined with our established resources sector, will provide opportunities to deliver long-term sustainable economic benefits for our State.

As Western Australia moves towards decarbonising our economy, we are prioritising the highest impact end-uses of renewable hydrogen in hard-to-abate sectors, enabling sector-specific decarbonisation that brings Western Australia the most benefit. 

We are supporting the production and export of high-value renewable hydrogen products such as green ammonia, green metals, and renewable hydrogen, to facilitate local and global industry decarbonisation.

The Renewable Hydrogen Strategy 2024-2030 sets out the Western Australian Government’s goals, targets and priority actions for the development of the hydrogen industry.
