ARENA Backs Hadean Energy's Groundbreaking Hydrogen Pilot in Victoria
This month, the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) announced a significant funding commitment of AUD 15 million to Hadean Energy for the development of a AUD 30 million hydrogen production pilot in Hastings, Victoria. This project, which uses Australia’s newly developed tubular solid oxide electrolysis technology, aims to produce renewable hydrogen for use in industrial steel-manufacturing processes.
Technology Overview and Objectives
The pilot plant is expected to operate at an electrical capacity of between 200–300 kW, generating up to 7 kilograms of hydrogen per hour. Notably, it aims to provide around 85% of the hydrogen necessary for a targeted steel annealing process, a critical step in steel production that improves the metal's properties.
