This research will have a serious impact on climate mitigation by enabling the use of existing gas transmission pipelines for the transport of hydrogen produced by Solar and Wind at remote locations to population centres, where the hydrogen can be used, converted to electricity, or exported to countries like Japan. This research will define the critical conditions that enable hydrogen storage and transport without hydrogen embrittlement of the steels that make up critical Australian gas transmission pipelines. The research is inspired in part by the Australian Hydrogen Strategy, as advocated by Australia’s Chief Scientist and Australia’s National Hydrogen Strategy priorities and delivery.
