A pathway to a cleaner energy future

Hydrogen Park Gladstone (HyP Gladstone) continues AGIG’s hydrogen leadership by extending our renewable gas footprint into Queensland.

About Hydrogen Park Gladstone

Hydrogen Park Gladstone (HyP Gladstone) is a small demonstration facility designed to produce renewable hydrogen to start to decarbonise gas supply in Gladstone.

Supported by the Queensland Government with grant funding from the Hydrogen Industry Development Fund, HyP Gladstone is an important first step in the development of a sustainable renewable hydrogen economy as supported by the Queensland Hydrogen Industry Strategy 2019-2024.

At HyP Gladstone, we will produce renewable hydrogen using a 175 kilowatt electrolyser with water and renewable electricity that will be sourced from the grid and matched with Large-scale Generation Certificates (LGC’s) that will be procured and surrendered as required to ensure the electricity used is renewable. The renewable hydrogen will be blended with natural gas at volumes of up to 10% and supplied to local industry, homes and businesses via the existing AGN gas distribution network.

The HyP Gladstone facility is being located in a light industrial area owned by the Gladstone Ports Corporation, at the corner of Morgan and Rooksby Streets in Gladstone. Investigations identified the site accounting for technical, environmental, safety and social considerations.

Gladstone will be the first city in Australia where the entire gas distribution network will supply customers with a blend of up to 10% (by volume) of renewable gas. There are about 700 customers connected to this network who will be able to benefit from the renewable gas blend.

Construction started in October 2023 and is on-track to start delivering blended renewable gas to customers in early 2024.
