This follows the project securing development approval in July this year which involved an independent and comprehensive assessment by both State and Commonwealth regulatory agencies.
These approval milestones signify a significant step forward for the project, reinforcing the Government of South Australia’s commitment to sustainability and environmental protection while fostering renewable energy growth and job creation.
Sam Crafter, Chief Executive of the Office of Hydrogen Power SA, highlighted the project’s progress and emphasised the rigorous environmental protections in place.
“This approval is a testament to our commitment to balance renewable energy development with conservation. We’re proud to take a responsible approach that not only drives employment opportunities and innovation in Whyalla but also safeguards the unique biodiversity in the region,” Crafter said.
