What we do
h2ec is currently focussed on servicing the domestic markets across Australia
Our projects are designed to enable customers across many sectors to safely adopt and/or trial green hydrogen.
As a key first step in our Decarbonisation as a Service (DaaS) offering, we have participated in several collaborations covering the following activities and services:
Production & storage facility development
Trials & pilot
planning
Supply
modelling
Use Case
Studies
Zero Emissions transition & route planning
Energy
Independence

How we do it
Asset Ownership Models
Our business model is based on developing, building, owning and operating green hydrogen facilities. We seek to take projects from the concept stage through to delivery and remain actively involved through the life of the project. In the early stages of establishing the green hydrogen market, we work flexibly with customers to meet their needs, collaborate with partners where it benefits the project, and will explore vertical integration if there are gaps in the value chain.
H2 Supply Model
In order to meet our customer’s needs, we will work collaboratively with them and our trusted engineering partners, to determine the most effective supply model, that meets their decarbonisation plans. Typical supply models considered are:
- Dedicated, bespoke facilities for customer specific supply; or
- Shared facilities that service multiple customers, within a specific radius
Integrated
We offer an integrated approach to production, storage and supply of our green hydrogen to our customers. This internalises margins and interfaces, providing lowest cost and risk, and ensuring a certifiable product can be delivered safely and reliably to our customers.
Independent
As an independent company, we remain technology-neutral, unaffiliated with any specific technology or original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Our project solutions are therefore unbiased and optimised.
We have extensive experience in the oil, gas and infrastructure sectors managing, operating and maintaining assets. Capabilities well suited to delivering value through our services options.
Flexible services
We also offer flexible services options, should our customer wish to take an ownership stake in the facilities – our engagement could therefore be as a trusted partner to manage, maintain and operate, the facilities should this “services approach” be preferred.
in our pursuit of an emissions free future
Together, we can create a cleaner, more sustainable world for generations to come.
Example Projects
Logistics Company
Energy Independence Pilot
Initiate the transition of the trucking logistics depot to a sustainable zero emission facility and leverage the facility to activate the depot and adjacent hydrogen transport market.
Major Airport
Hydrogen Demand Land sizing modelling
Determine a transition model for hydrogen powered aircraft and estimate the required onsite GH2 and LH2 demand. Construct a phased hydrogen land use model to inform future land use requirements.
Fossil Fuelled Power Station
Hydrogen Transition concept
Investigate concepts to transition existing remote power station currently driven by dual fuel (natural gas/diesel) engines to a hydrogen blend and eventual transition to 100% hydrogen and/or replacement with hydrogen fuel cells.
Feedstock
Displacement of SMR derived hydrogen
Concept workings for a green hydrogen supply chain to displace and transition a factory away from hydrogen produced via the steam methane reforming process.
h2ec has entered into a number of strategic MoU’s and HoA’s with partners ranging from aircraft manufacturers, marine tourist operators and transport and logistics companies to property developers.
Further to this, h2ec has been the beneficiary of significant letters of support relating to our projects to date.
“Established in 2014, Top Shelf International (TSI) is an Australian premium spirits company that has committed to growing blue weber agave and building and operating a distillery in the Whitsunday region. “Under our MOU h2ec has helped us and others understand the opportunities and benefits of integrating low or zero emission “clean” technology initiatives at our one of-a-kind Australian Agave farm in north Queensland with the objective of delivering outcomes that offer benefits to our business and more broadly to the region.”
