Name of the Project
HyEnergy green hydrogen development.

Location
Gascoyne region of Western Australia.

Project Owner/s
Province Resources and Total Eren.

Project Description
A scoping study on the project has opened the way for Province Resources and Total to start a prefeasibility study (PFS).

The scoping study confirms the technical feasibility for an integrated green energy production project using renewable energy generated from the identified Gascoyne resource.

The study proposes a two-phase development.

The first phase involves the construction and operation of 4 GW of upstream power generation using an optimised mix of wind turbines and solar arrays, transmission infrastructure and downstream hydrogen production facilities that will initially involve 2.6 GW of electrolysers with compression and storage.

Phase 1 is also intended to include all common infrastructure and downstream hydrogen processing facilities such as ammonia production, liquefaction, compression, storage and pipeline injection.

Downstream hydrogen processing facilities will be determined during the PFS and will be optimised to suit economic market demand for the products.

Phase 2 proposes the expansion of the facility by an additional 4 GW of renewable-energy generation to support an additional 2.6 GW of hydrogen electrolysers. Additional downstream hydrogen processing facilities will be included, again reflecting market demand for the products in the future.

Latest Developments
The positive scoping study has supported the decision to advance into a detailed PFS in 2022 targeted for completion in the third quarter of 2023. This PFS will support future critical engagements and decisions moving the project forward. Province and Total Eren have signed a memorandum of understanding with Perth-based Global Energy Ventures to study the export of green hydrogen to Asian markets using a compressed hydrogen marine supply chain, which is progressing well.
