Overview
The H2Global Joint Tender aims to provide supply and demand support to the nascent international renewable hydrogen industry through a double-sided auction scheme. The scheme will be implemented by the Hydrogen Intermediary Company (HINT.CO) to secure long-term offtake of Australian renewable hydrogen and derivatives products to be sold in German/European markets. Joint investment from both the Australian and German governments will bridge the gap between the cost of producing renewable hydrogen and the sales price.
We are seeking your feedback on key design parameters of the scheme outlined in the consultation paper. These parameters have been designed to meet the requirements of the Australian government, as well as those of the German government and the European Commission.
Please note, the specifications outlined are indicative only and designed to stimulate input from stakeholders during the consultation process. They should not be taken to presuppose any final design features.
Your feedback and other information you provide will assist us with the development and design of the Joint Tender. If you wish for your responses to be treated as confidential, please note this in your submission. We may publish all or part of any non-confidential submissions it receives.
Please note that information from responses may be shared with other parts of the Australian Government, the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWE), and HINT.CO, even if marked as confidential, to inform the development of the Joint Tender.
