Mallee Regional Innovation Centre

Led by the Mallee Regional Innovation Centre, the Mallee Hydrogen Technology Cluster is dedicated to the accelerating a hydrogen ecosystem, fostering innovation and research, building skills, capability and attracting investment for the development of a hydrogen industry.

Headquartered in Mildura in the North-West of Victoria, the Mallee region is known as home to an inland port, that intersects at a strategic freight route at a tri-state region.

The Cluster was formed by the Mallee Regional Innovation Centre with representation of founding members from Mildura Regional Development, GTS Freight and Logistics Group and Regional Development Victoria.

The Mallee region is well placed to develop a hydrogen supply chain and become one of Australia’s largest producers of hydrogen due to its high solar radiation and capacity for renewable energy, which is supported by the existing infrastructure, including rail routes to port, Victoria’s second busiest regional passenger airport, and proximity to domestic demand centres.

This initiative was seeded by NERA in 2020 in order to build the capability needed to establish Australia as a world leader in the hydrogen value chain.
