The Indonesian and Australian governments are backing the initiative, with a technical feasibility study now underway through the government-supported business development program Katalis.<\/p><div id=\"DivAssetPlaceHolder1\" class=\"PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference\">\u00a0<\/div><p>If successful, the plan could see GRP replace natural gas at its plant in Cikarang,\u00a0<span class=\"xn-location\">West Java<\/span>, with green hydrogen sourced from Australian green energy company Fortescue.<\/p><p>&#8220;<i>Transitioning to a green economy requires a concerted effort across businesses to collaborate, innovate and invest.

Under the MOU, the two parties agreed to investigate how green hydrogen and green ammonia supplied by Fortescue could be used to help decarbonise GRP&#8217;s steelmaking factories, as well as offtake opportunities. These could aid GRP&#8217;s ambition to achieve full operational carbon emission reduction in its existing processing plant by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2050.<\/p><p>&#8220;<i>Decarbonising our steel production is in line with our commitment to achieve net zero and will provide us with a competitive regional advantage.

The green hydrogen produced in this plant would potentially replace the natural gas currently used in GRP&#8217;s downstreaming process and ensure continued efficiency.<\/p><p>Fortescue is providing technical input into the Katalis-funded study, which will analyse the potential of replacing the burning of carbon-emitting natural gas at GRP&#8217;s stationary combustion steel manufacturing operations with green hydrogen gas.<\/p><p>&#8220;<i>Fortescue is leading the global development of green electrons, green hydrogen and green technology that will help step the world beyond fossil fuels.
