AEA Australia conference announced14 Jun 2019 09:47
ANNOUNCEMENT: The Australian chapter of the Ammonia Energy Association (AEA Australia) has announced details of its inaugural conference, which will take place on August 22 and 23, 2019, at the CSIRO campus in Clayton, Victoria.
Entitled “Ammonia = Hydrogen 2.0,” the conference will focus on the role of ammonia within the Australian hydrogen economy, specifically “Building an energy export industry using Green Ammonia.” In addition to a full program of talks by invited speakers from industry, government and research sectors, networking events will include panel discussions, a poster session, and the conference dinner. Registration for the event is now open, with an early booking discount available until July 5.
The opening address will be given by the Honourable Lily D’Ambrosio, Victorian Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change, and Minister for Solar Homes. The plenary speaker will be Shigeru Muraki, Representative Director at the Green Ammonia Consortium and Executive Advisor at Tokyo Gas, who will speak about “the aspirations of Japan, as one of Australia’s largest energy customers, to import carbon-free ammonia into their energy market.”
Does this mean Southern Oil will get far more revenue from exporting hydrogen to Japan than using it themselves to lower their electricity bill ?
