In Australia, Australia Manufacturing Forum reported that Climate Impact Corporation (CIC) and GE Vernova have announced plans for two massive hydrogen projects in outback South Australia and the Northern Territory that would draw water from the atmosphere for electrolysis for conversion to hydrogen. The partners plan two 10MWH green hydrogen projects that are modular in design, each with atmospheric water generators, solar panels and electrolyzers, according to the report. The chairman and co-founder of CIC David Green said the approach would unlock inland hydrogen production opportunities in solar-rich outback locations. “Renewable hydrogen production requires a significant amount of energy and water, which aren’t often found together in places like Australia. Rather than repeating the same approach, we’re looking to solve this challenge by creating modules that use Australia’s abundant solar resources, combined with proven atmospheric water generation technology,” Green said.
