Western Green Energy Hub
proposed green hydrogen production centre
The Western Green Energy Hub is a proposed renewable energy hub for the southern coast of Western Australia, Australia consisting of 70 GW of wind and solar capacity. It is estimated to cost $100 billion AUD in construction and be one of the largest energy infrastructure projects in the world.
Design
It is proposed to be built on a site area of 15,000 km2 in Dundas Shire, South-East Western Australia, on traditional Mirning land on the Great Australian Bight near Eucla, extending towards the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder, taking advantage of the area's immense wind and solar energy potential with optimal diurnal profile and an estimated 70% utilisation factor.
The Western Green Energy Hub will produce 3.5 million tonnes of green hydrogen, or 20 million tonnes of green ammonia per year for domestic consumption and export, power equivalent to Australia's entire current energy capacity.
Development
Funding will be headlined by an international consortium of InterContinental Energy, CWP Global and Mirning Green Energy Limited.
The project will also be one of the first to define a new model for natural resource and energy companies to partner with First Nations Land Owners, with Mirning Green Energy Limited being a wholly owned subsidiary of the Mirning Traditional Lands Aboriginal Corporation.
A final investment date of 2028 is proposed.
Begin with the source’s own compact description: “Western Green Energy Hub” is proposed green hydrogen production centre. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Western, Green and Energy, not as a finished interpretation.
Why this record matters
The phrase “proposed green hydrogen production centre” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Feb 20, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q109255372. Authority coordinates are -31.608, 128.802. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2028.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
