Hydrogen West

What Hydrogen West does

Hydrogen West is a Western Australia-based developer of a green hydrogen refuelling network for heavy transport, fleet operators and mining customers, structured as a subsidiary venture of Top Group (WA) Pty Ltd, founded and led by CEO Davyd Hooper with technical leadership from Chief Hydrogen Officer David Cavanagh of Integrated Energy. The company's core product is a staged rollout of three to twenty-six hydrogen refuelling stations along proposed "hydrogen highways" between Perth and the Goldfields, anchored by a flagship station at Perth Airport and supported by an upcoming mobile app for locating refuelling points. Its green hydrogen is sourced through a binding twenty-year supply agreement with Infinite Blue Energy valued at $2.2 billion, with IBE also contributing $10 million toward network establishment.

The underlying technology is green hydrogen production via electrolysis of water using renewable electricity, yielding 99.9% pure hydrogen with zero carbon emissions; downstream, the model envisions liquefying hydrogen, transporting it to Hydrogen West-operated fuel stations, and dispensing it under canopy designs that allow coexistence with existing hydrocarbon fuels at parent-owned roadhouses such as Karnup, Del Park and Cue. Some stations are greenfield (Kambalda, Perth Airport) while others repurpose existing Top Group fuel retail sites that already dispense unleaded petrol, premium unleaded and diesel.

Revenue mechanics will combine usage-based hydrogen fuel sales to heavy vehicles with continued transaction-based legacy fuel sales at the existing roadhouse footprint. Go-to-market runs through enterprise field sales into logistics, mining and vehicle manufacturers combined with a future direct-to-consumer channel via the planned mobile app. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quote-based, with the company actively soliciting investor enquiries for a future prospectus to fund the multi-station buildout.

Revenue model

1. Hydrogen Fuel Sales: Revenue generated from dispensing green hydrogen fuel to heavy transport vehicles, trucks, and fleet operators at refuelling stations. Usage-based model where customers pay per kilogram/litre of hydrogen consumed.
2. Existing Roadhouse Operations: Revenue from existing service stations and roadhouses that dispense unleaded fuel, premium unleaded petrol, and diesel products, with plans to add hydrogen dispensing capabilities.

Core offering

Hydrogen West builds and operates a network of green hydrogen refuelling stations across Western Australia, including a flagship station at Perth Airport and conversions of existing Top Group roadhouses, to dispense renewable hydrogen fuel to heavy transport, logistics, mining, and fleet customers. The company also continues to retail unleaded fuel, premium petrol, and diesel at its roadhouse locations.

Product overview

Hydrogen West operates a network of green hydrogen refuelling stations across Western Australia, repurpose existing roadhouses for hydrogen fuel dispensing while maintaining hydrocarbon fuel services. The network includes existing sites (Karnup Roadhouse, Del Park Roadhouse, Cue Roadhouse), planned stations (Kambalda Service Station), and the flagship Perth Airport Hydrogen Refuelling Station. The company is developing a mobile app for locating hydrogen refuelling points. All stations are positioned along the proposed hydrogen highways to serve heavy transport and fleet vehicles transitioning from diesel to green hydrogen.

Four partnerships are on record, tiered core and flagship.

• Infinite Blue Energy (IBE)coreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 10 March 2021IBE signed a binding Hydrogen Supply Agreement (HSA) with Hydrogen West on 10 March 2021 to provide renewable hydrogen fuel in both gaseous and liquid forms commencing in 2023. The agreement is valued at $2.2 billion over 20 years. IBE will also contribute $10 million to help establish the refuelling network alongside Hydrogen West. Initially, the IBE MEG Hydrogen Production Facility in Northam will supply early hydrogen volumes, with later supply from the Arrowsmith Hydrogen Plant.
• Integrated EnergycoreStrategic or Co-development PartnerHydrogen West is supported by Perth-based renewable energy consultancy Integrated Energy. Managing Director David Cavanagh brings three decades of energy and resources experience and has developed hydrogen projects worth more than $30 billion in Asia Pacific and Europe. Integrated Energy secured the Perth Airport HRS site via Heads of Agreement and provides technical expertise and modelling.
• Perth Airport CorporationflagshipStrategic or Co-development PartnerIntegrated Energy secured the Perth Airport HRS site by way of a Heads of Agreement with Perth Airport Corporation in 2021, with expectation to conclude a definitive lease agreement in early 2022. The site will host the flagship Perth Airport Hydrogen Refuelling Station on Dunreath Drive.
• Top Group (WA) Pty LtdcoreStrategic or Co-development PartnerHydrogen West is privately owned by Top Group WA Managing Director Davyd Hooper and is part of the Top Group group of companies. This provides access to an existing network of strategically positioned roadhouses across WA that will undergo hydrogen repurposing.
