Endua demonstrates viable hydrogen for clean energy projects
Australian clean-tech company Endua has marked two major milestones in its mission to make hydrogen power accessible nationwide: the launch of its innovative electrolyser technology and the successful deployment of its hydrogen power bank system at Archerfield Airport.
“Endua is making green hydrogen a reality for Australian businesses,” says CEO Paul Sernia. “Our electrolyser enables on-site production, and our power bank system provides reliable clean energy storage. This combination unlocks hydrogen projects that previously lacked access to reliable and affordable supply, helping Australia achieve its green hydrogen ambitions by producing hydrogen where and when it’s needed.”
The electrolyser technology allows Endua to build plug-and-play systems for different businesses to produce their own hydrogen supply on-site. “Think of it as a mini hydrogen factory,” Sernia explains.
“Instead of relying on complex supply chains, businesses can generate hydrogen exactly when and where they need it. And because our systems are built and certified to Australian standards, businesses avoid unknown technical risks that can lead to expensive delays. This equipment was delivered and ready for use after only 6 hours—something that might take months to achieve with a conventional project approach.”
The system’s modular design allows for easy installation without extensive site modifications, making hydrogen production accessible to a wider range of operations.
Endua has achieved another milestone with the successful operation of its hydrogen power bank system at Queensland’s Archerfield Airport. This installation demonstrates the commercial viability of Endua’s energy storage technology and validates its safe deployment capabilities.
Archerfield Airport Joint Managing Director Lachlan Bird said he was delighted to welcome Endua to the airport community.
“Throughout its 94-year history, Archerfield Airport has frequently been at the forefront of emerging aviation technology,” he said. “With some of the best general aviation infrastructure available in Australia and a critical mass of expertise and innovation on-site, Archerfield Airport looks forward to facilitating the next aviation evolution which promises clean, green, fast, safe and quiet transport options for a wide range of applications.”
Drawing on 15 years of CSIRO research, Endua’s technologies address major challenges in Australia’s clean energy transition. While the country has big plans for hydrogen power—with Queensland alone housing over 50 renewable hydrogen projects—both production and storage have been significant hurdles. Endua’s dual solution approach tackles both challenges head-on.
Endua’s technologies have the potential to fast-track the transformation of operations across multiple sectors of the Australian economy. Mining operations, transport fleets, and remote infrastructure providers could generate and store their own clean hydrogen on-site, eliminating dependence on fossil fuels. The modular design of both the electrolyser and power bank means businesses can scale their hydrogen production and storage to match their specific needs.
This approach could be particularly valuable for industries that currently rely on diesel generators and face high fuel transportation costs, offering them a practical pathway to transition to clean energy.
Industry experts predict Australia’s hydrogen industry could contribute up to $10 billion to the national economy by 2040. Australian and global businesses gain immediate access to hydrogen production and storage solutions with Endua, bypassing the need for large-scale infrastructure and international approvals.
“These technologies represent two crucial pieces of the hydrogen puzzle,” Sernia noted. “Whether businesses need to produce their own hydrogen supply or store clean energy for extended periods, we now have operational solutions for both challenges.”
Engineered and built in South East Queensland, both the electrolyser and power bank systems can be installed quickly without major site modifications, making clean energy more accessible to businesses across Australia.
