The Asset Management Council is organising a site tour to view the Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) pilot project on Tuesday 13th September 2022.

Participants will learn about the HESC pilot key elements:

  • clean liquid hydrogen extracted from Latrobe Valley coal and a mixture of biomass at a newly constructed plat located at AGL’s Ly Yang Complex through gasification and refining
  • hydrogen gas transported by truck to a liquification and loading terminal at the Port of Hastings
  • where the hydrogen gas is liquified and then loaded on to a specially designed marine carrier and shipped to Japan
