Tender Description
Funding is available to support the design and development of a renewable hydrogen refuelling network along the Hume Highway between Melbourne and Sydney.
Overview
This joint initiative of the Victorian and New South Wales governments supports the development of at least 4 refuelling stations along the Hume Highway and will support approximately 25 hydrogen-powered long-haul heavy freight vehicles to adopt zero-emission technology, such as fuel cells.
The program aims to:
- reduce carbon emissions through the displacement of diesel fuel in the hard-to-abate heavy transport sector
- improve air quality and reduce vehicle noise on our roads
- grow and diversify the economy by creating new jobs
- catalyse further public and private investment in hydrogen refuelling infrastructure to help establish an east coast refuelling network.
