Infinite Blue Energy progresses Perth green hydrogen plant

Infinite Blue Energy has partnered with Petrofac for the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) of its $350 million Arrowsmith Hydrogen Project to be constructed north of Perth, according to reports.

Petrofac, an international energy services firm, will progress the Arrowsmith project to support a final investment decision in early 2021.

Destined to become Australia’s largest green hydrogen production facility based on wind and solar energy, production will begin in 2022 of 25 tonnes of green Hydrogen per day from zero carbon energy sources.

The plant will be supplied by around 85MW of solar power, supplemented by 75MW of wind generation.

The Arrowsmith plant will be scalable, with the ability to be replicated in other areas of regional Australia to provide green hydrogen energy.

However the status of the project is unclear, with earlier reports indicating a start to works by mid-2020, a deadline which has now passed.
