Overview

The world-first Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) Project aims to safely produce and transport clean liquid hydrogen from Australia’s Latrobe Valley in Victoria to Kobe in Japan. A key objective of the pilot project is to demonstrate an end-to-end supply chain between both countries. This webinar will contain: an outline of underlying project motivations; project fixed assets and their locations; block diagram of the hydrogen production process; an outline of cryogenic / re-vaporisation processes; shipping technology and current parcel sizes; and future project prospects and scope.
