New 6GW green hydrogen project in Australia eyes ammonia export to Japan and Korea.
The Moolawatana Renewable Hydrogen Project will combine about 3GW of wind and 3GW of solar with electrolyzers, a desalination plant, and a dedicated H2 pipeline around 500km long to a local port, where the hydrogen will be used to produce green ammonia for export — with Japan and South Korea mentioned as possible destinations
South Australia currently gets 62% of its electricity from wind and solar. It is backed up by some of the world’s largest battery projects, including the 150MW/194MWh Hornsdale Power Reserve.
