Good enough for me!

Province plans to take advantage of the ample wind and solar resources in regional W.A. that has already attracted interest from at least half a dozen rival projects to develop the 8GW green hydrogen production facility.

The project would be developed in two stages and would be owned in a 50-50 arrangement between Province and the French headquartered Total Eren, which already has operations in Australia with the 256MW Kiamal solar farm.

The proposed hydrogen project would be co-located with Province’s resource exploration activities in Western Australia, with the company primarily looking to produce minerals, salts and potash from the Gascoyne region.

However, the massive potential and scale of the green hydrogen development would represent a major play for both Province and Total in the green energy exports space.

Global head of business development of Total Eren, Fabienne Demol, said the partnership would help deepen the company’s commitments to invest in Australia and low carbon energy sources.
