The Northern Territory Government has awarded major project status to TE H2’s Darwin H2 Hub.

The Darwin H2 Hub will be a green hydrogen production facility, which will use solar energy to produce more than 80,000 tonnes of renewable-based hydrogen each year.

The project is expected to create 800 jobs during construction and 175 positions once it’s operational. The hydrogen will be exported both domestically and internationally.

TE H2 will be an early mover in giga-scale renewable energy generation and will establish a hydrogen production industry in the Territory.

The Territory Government has been working closely with Total Eren since 2022, now “TE H2’ and has seen the project develop.

The company will continue to progress its project, working towards design of the downstream facility, transmission infrastructure and upstream generation facility.

TE H2 is among 5 proponents awarded ‘not to deal’ commitments by the NT Government to provide certainty for land at Middle Arm.

Major Project Status is a formal recognition of a projects significance through its contribution to economic growth, decarbonisation, employment and renewable energy supply chains in the NT.
