Natural hydrogen refers to molecular hydrogen found in the subsurface, with recent studies indicating its widespread presence in various geological environments. Unlike traditional fossil fuels, such as coal or oil, natural hydrogen originates from deep-seated processes rather than organic matter decomposition. Proposed exploration efforts by Natural Hydrogen Pty. Ltd. in Tasmania aim to assess the feasibility of extracting this natural resource. The Tasmania Basin, rich in iron-rich Precambrian and doleritic rocks, presents a promising geological setting for hydrogen exploration. Hydrogen generation in this region is hypothesized to occur through hydrolytic and radiolytic reactions involving iron-rich and alkaline rocks. The potential discovery of significant natural hydrogen reservoirs in Tasmania aligns with the state's vision of transitioning to renewable energy sources, as outlined in Tasmania's Hydrogen Action Plan and the National Hydrogen Strategy. If successful, the extraction of natural hydrogen could contribute to Tasmania's ambition of becoming a leader in renewable hydrogen production, both for domestic use and export, further solidifying its position in the global energy market.
