On 9 May 2023 the Minister for Energy, Renewables and Hydrogen and Minister for Public Works and Procurement introduced the Gas Supply and Other Legislation (Hydrogen Industry Development) Amendment Bill 2023 to the Queensland Parliament. The Bill was referred to the Transport and Resources Committee for detailed consideration.
The Gas Supply and Other Legislation (Hydrogen Industry Development) Amendment Bill 2023 aims to provide a clear regulatory assessment pathway to authorise the construction and operation of pipelines for hydrogen and hydrogen carriers in Queensland. Hydrogen carriers could include ammonia, methanol, methyl-cyclohexane (MCH), dimethyl-ether and toluene in pipelines.
To achieve its objective, the Gas Supply and other Legislation (Hydrogen Industry Development) Amendment Bill 2023 proposes to amend:
- The Gas Supply Act 2003 to expand its jurisdiction to hydrogen blends biomethane and other gases; and
- The Petroleum and Gas (Production and Safety) Act 2004 to provide a clear and effective regulatory pathway for a proponent to apply for a pipeline license for the transmission of hydrogen and hydrogen carriers.
