Description

M Resources, in partnership with Hazer Group, plans to power the Whyalla Steelworks using hydrogen derived from natural gas. This approach uses Hazer Group's technology that converts natural gas into low-emissions hydrogen and solid graphite without producing carbon dioxide, aiming to create clean steel production. The project aligns with the South Australian government's focus on gas as the future energy source for the steelworks, replacing previous plans for a $593 million green hydrogen plant based on electrolysis.
