Australia's Emerging Hydrogen Economy: In Search of Export Opportunities

In this chapter we provide an overview of hydrogen development in Australia. We begin with a brief overview of Australia’s climate and energy policy and its position in regional and global energy markets. We then discuss the state of hydrogen supply and demand in the domestic economy, before outlining the main policy initiatives and stakeholders. We then consider the external dimensions of Australia's national hydrogen policy, which is closely linked to the opportunity for exports of hydrogen and associated vectors with low carbon intensity.
