There is/was a project in the Pilbara to export
25GW of electricity to Singapore.
It's about 3000k.
If you have driven from Sydney to Perth or
Melbourne to Bamaga FNQ - you get the drift.
And there are four cables - two each way.
Anyway the company has changed names four or five times.
Now has dumped Hydrogen to replace the DC current.
Now the renewables will be used to produce liquid ammonia.
Although smelly, ammonia has a simple atomic make-up NH3.
NH3 has the advantage of liquefaction at a moderate temperature
(H is an impossible -250C)
It will burn in a furnace.
The project has shifted from one impossible dream to another.
The plan is to build a town between Karratha and Broome
(not at a port????)
