Key components include:
Establishing a hydrogen and/or ammonia pipeline between the Maitland and Burrup Strategic Industrial Areas, with a transfer capacity equivalent to 2–5 GW of renewable energy.
Facilitating the Clean Energy Training and Research Institute (CETRI) to provide vocational and university-level training, focusing on the skills needed for clean energy industries, including production, transportation, storage, and export of renewable hydrogen and its carriers.
Upgrading key infrastructure at Lumsden Point (Port Hedland) to enable the import of oversized renewable energy generation equipment like turbine towers and blades.
Conducting a hub expansion study to plan for future growth.
The Pilbara Hydrogen Hub is anticipated to become operational around mid-2028. Its planned pipeline capacity will enable hydrogen production of approximately 492,000 tonnes per annum.
