Decarbonisation at the next molecular level

ARENA’s ReWired podcast is back for a new season spotlighting the Australians turning big clean energy ideas into real-world impact.

In this episode, host Danny Kennedy speaks with special guests:

• Alex Motbey, Investment Associate Director at ARENA
• Shohan Seneviratne, Chief Executive Officer at Murchison Hydrogen Renewables

Together, they discuss what green hydrogen looks like today, and how it might be used in the future. The conversation covers the potential of hydrogen to decarbonise hard-to-abate industries like steelmaking and aviation, and how other molecules like ammonia can be used to create complementary decarbonisation strategies.

You'll also hear about ARENA's Hydrogen Headstart program, and details of the Murchison Green Hydrogen project funded under it.
