The Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water is seeking views on the proposed Guarantee of Origin scheme for hydrogen.
The Department has been allocated $2.2 million in the budget to develop and consult on design and draft legislation for the scheme to be able to:
- Provide a mechanism to track and verify emissions associated with hydrogen and other low emissions commodities produced in Australia”,
- Provide an enduring certificate mechanism for renewable electricity which could support a variety of renewable energy claims.
Please go to https://consult.dcceew.gov.au/aus-guarantee-of-origin-scheme-consultation for more information and to provide your feedback before 3rd February 2023.
AGA supports the introduction of the Hydrogen Guarantee of Origin Scheme as the Hydrogen appliance testing increasing at AGA’s Hydrogen appliance testing facility located in Melbourne, Australia. When available, AGA will be moving to sourcing green Hydrogen as part of AGA’s blended and 100% Hydrogen appliance testing.
