Message
APA propose to install 25 km of 42" Steel high pressure pipeline 15.3 MPa to be shallow buried on the site, to store up to 70 TJ of Natural Gas to support the Kurri Kurri Power Project (ref APA Project Update 19 October 2021). We believe this represents a high risk to the environment, operational safety and most importantly does not consider the future potential to store green hydrogen to support the turbines at Kurri Kurri that are required to be to be hydrogen compatible. Ardent urges the NSW Government to investigate the possibility of vertical lined shafts that are Hydrogen compatible, offer a significant and tangible benefit to the environment and to the safety of the infrastructure and the community. In addition, independent consultants have assessed this solution as having significantly lower capital and ongoing costs. These benefits are further detailed in the attached submission.
