HyP SA commended at the SA Premier’s Awards for Energy and Mining
The South Australian Premier’s Awards for Energy and Mining were held via a virtual ceremony on Friday 11 December. Now in its ninth year, the awards showcase how innovation and best practice can improve the economic, environmental, health and social wellbeing for South Australia and South Australians.
Hydrogen Park South Australia (HyP SA), designed by GPA was awarded a commendation in the Energy Sector ‘Innovation and Collaboration’ category. We’re proud to share this recognition with our project partners Australian Gas Networks (AGN) and Valmec, which follows the exciting announcement of the first renewable hydrogen production on site as part of commissioning, with delivery to South Australian Households on schedule for the first quarter of 2021.
