Land tenure guidance for hydrogen projects

Land tenure guidance for hydrogen projects

The State Government has published a new guidance document to provide certainty and clarity for renewable hydrogen project proponents as they seek to gain access to land and legal tenure for their projects.
 
As WA's renewable hydrogen industry continues to develop, the State Government anticipates that demand for access to Crown land will only increase.

The Goldfields-Esperance region has been identified as a potential location for renewable hydrogen production.

The Guidance for Land Tenure for Large Scale Renewable Hydrogen Projects outlines the State Government's preference that where more than one project proponent has an interest in the same area of Crown land, those project proponents and any existing interest holders co-exist.
 
A policy to manage situations where there are competing projects proposed for the same areas of land has been produced.

The document is available here.
