Curtin University research that aims to develop a new way of producing, storing and exporting green hydrogen from Australian resources has been awarded more than $580,000 by the Federal Government.<\/p>\n
The Federal Education Minister, the Hon Dan Tehan, announced today that the Curtin-led project has been awarded an Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage Project grant.<\/p>\n
The new research will be led by Professor Craig Buckley from Curtin\u2019s School of Electrical Engineering, Computing and Mathematical Sciences.<\/p>\n
Curtin University Deputy Vice-Chancellor Research Professor Chris Moran congratulated Professor Buckley and the team on receiving research funding through the ARC Linkage Program.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe ARC Linkage Program supports research that encourages the transfer of skills, knowledge and ideas as a basis for securing real-world and commercial benefits,\u201d Professor Moran said.<\/p>\n
\u201cProfessor Buckley and his team\u2019s research has the potential to support the creation of a new export industry in Australia by harnessing our rich natural resources to develop a new renewable energy source.\u201d<\/p>\n
Professor Buckley said the research would investigate creating a closed-loop energy cycle using green hydrogen and renewable energy sources.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur research aims to develop a new method of producing, storing and exporting green hydrogen using Australian resources,\u201d Professor Buckley said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe project will investigate exporting sodium borohydride, produced from borax using renewable energy, to countries that are seeking hydrogen from renewable sources, rather than fossil fuels.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy adding water to the sodium borohydride, green hydrogen will be released with the spent material then shipped back to Australia for recycling back to sodium borohydride, creating a closed-loop energy cycle.\u201d<\/p>\n
The ARC Linkage Program promotes national and international research partnerships between researchers and business, industry, community organisations and other publicly funded research agencies.<\/p>\n
