CHALLENGES
This facility is the largest renewable Hydrogen generation facility delivered in Australia to date.
The facility is also the first to blend gas into an existing domestic gas distribution network.
The site, which is located in an urban infill area within Adelaide, has required due consideration during design to potential impacts on neighbouring land use.
SOLUTIONS
Valmec has worked with AGIG during the ECI phase and then through detailed design to address the projects technical challenges.
