For Australia to lead the way on green hydrogen, first we must find enough water

"Australia is well-positioned to be a global leader in green hydrogen
production. Green hydrogen is produced using a renewable power source such as
solar or wind. As a substitute for fossil fuels, it will help to meet growing
renewable energy needs.

However, high-quality water is needed to produce hydrogen. Supplies of
high-quality water must also be secured into the future to support our
agriculture, industries, cities, towns and communities. Climate change and
population growth will increase pressure on these supplies.

Community discussion is needed to identify where the water to produce hydrogen
will come from. We need to ensure this developing industry does not
disadvantage other water users, as we discuss in our new white paper."
