InterContinental Energy, a global leader in giga-scale green hydrogen development, announces its patented P2(H2)Node system. Designed in Australia after four years of intense innovation and engineering, this game-changing solution cuts costs, boosts efficiency, and allows for the scaling of giga-scale green hydrogen production.
Just as standardised shipping containers revolutionised the global shipping industry, the P2(H2)Node standardised architecture will streamline the green hydrogen industry by replacing bespoke projects with a uniform approach. Removing complexity and increasing repeatability will ensure all projects can access the lowest cost of production. Conventional centralised models require expensive electricity transmission, leading to energy losses and inefficiencies. The patented P2(H2)Node system flips this model by collocating giga-scale hydrogen production with wind and solar farms, ensuring power is used where it’s generated.
This system lowers production costs by 10-20%, which will enable faster large-scale hydrogen adoption for industries such as green iron, fertilizers, power, shipping and aviation fuels.
Designed to produce and export green hydrogen and ammonia, WGEH boasts a planned 70GW renewable energy capacity – positioning it as the world’s largest and most cost-efficient green hydrogen hub. With the support of newly announced Australian government hydrogen incentives, WGEH is projected to drive down production costs for green ammonia below US$650 per tonne, unlocking transformative investment opportunities and job creation.
‘We are proud that our team in Perth has developed this globally significant technology. The P2(H2)Node architecture is a breakthrough in clean hydrogen production. By eliminating transmission losses and leveraging a modular approach, we are making green hydrogen cost-competitive at scale for the planet.’ says Alexander Tancock, CEO at InterContinental Energy. ‘This technology comes at a time when Australia is poised to become a global leader in e-fuels and green iron.’
