Construction is set to begin on a landmark project demonstrating the commercial and technical viability of exporting renewable hydrogen in metal hydride storage.
This groundbreaking initiative is paving the way for green hydrogen production, storage, and shipping from Australia to Indonesia. The project represents a significant milestone in establishing Australia as a global hydrogen export hub.
Key project features:
- First commercial-scale demonstration of metal hydride hydrogen export
- Integration of renewable energy sources for green hydrogen production
- Advanced safety systems for international shipping
- Scalable design for future expansion
The project will demonstrate:
- Economic viability of hydrogen export using solid-state storage
- Technical advantages of metal hydride systems for maritime transport
- Regulatory compliance for international hydrogen trade
- Supply chain integration from production to end-use
This initiative positions Australia at the forefront of the emerging global hydrogen trade, with LAVO’s technology enabling safe and efficient international hydrogen transport.
