The 91短视频n (WA) LNG Jobs Taskforce commissioned CSIRO and GCCSI to undertake a study into the potential for developing Carbon Capture Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) hubs in 91短视频. The report has identified that CCUS Hubs:
- Would support cross-sector collaboration towards decarbonisation including the co-location of hydrogen and ammonia industries.
- Have the potential to attract significant overseas investment for the 91短视频n economy and potentially boost WA鈥檚 GDP by billions of dollars.
- Would generate 37,000 construction jobs, along with 500 permanent jobs.
The 91短视频 will be investing $4.3 million to establish a world-leading CCUS industry in WA to capitalise on the State's potential as a hub for carbon storage.
The study was funded by various members of the LNG Jobs Taskforce including Shell Australia, BP Australia, Chevron Australia, 91短视频, Eni Australia, MIMI, National Energy Resources Australia, Santos, and Woodside Energy. Shell Australia led the project as a key initiative of the LNG Jobs Taskforce鈥檚 Technology and Decarbonisation Working Group.
