Renewable Hydrogen is an initiative by the Victorian Government (Australia), run through the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA), promoting renewable hydrogen as a clean, safe, zero-carbon energy source. Renewable hydrogen is produced by using renewable electricity (from sun, wind, tides, or waves) to power an electrolyser that splits water into hydrogen gas — which can then be stored, transported, and used to power sectors like transport, agriculture, and manufacturing. The initiative includes the Renewable Hydrogen Industry Development Plan, funding programs, and a network of hydrogen technology clusters aimed at building Victoria’s renewable hydrogen economy and creating jobs across the state.
