Hydrogen exports yet to clear technical hurdles, shipper warns

According to The Australian Financial Review, shipping green hydrogen as a liquid or as ammonia can lose almost half the hydrogen’s energy content by the time it reaches the customer, according to a study from ASX-listed would-be shipper Provaris Energy.
Provaris, which touts a compression-based shipping method, says the energy content of liquid hydrogen and ammonia is drastically reduced once production, shipping, storage and conversion back to gas are factored in.
The company’s report, issued recently, underscores the major technical challenges Australia faces as it strives to become a hydrogen-exporting superpower.
