From Rain to Renewables: Sundown Pastoral’s Approach to Decarbonize its Agribusiness
Sundown Pastoral, a privately owned Australian agricultural and pastoral enterprise, partnered with green hydrogen developer Hiringa to start producing green hydrogen as early as 2025 from rainwater in order to decarbonize fertilizer and fuel for irrigation equipment at the site. For this green hydrogen project—also referred to as GEGHA (Good Earth Green Hydrogen and Ammonia) project—both the companies stated that they would source water from rainwater runoff from the Wathagar cotton gin.
The research grant of Australian dollar 35.8 million (USD 23.53 million) for the project has been released by the New South Wales government, which covers up to 50% of eligible capex as long as projects start to produce or use green H2 from 2025. Also, the firms are anticipating the production of 936.5 tonnes of hydrogen and 3,800 tonnes of liquid anhydrous ammonia per year through this project.
Besides this, the allies plan to build a 27MW solar array, which will provide power for cotton gin operations, the grid, and the electrolyzer, in three 9MW phases, with the first already near completion. Both firms have suggested replacing diesel-powered irrigation equipment with fuel cells-powered systems for low carbon emissions.
