Star Scientific is an Australian owned hydrogen energy company working on how humanity can transition to a new energy economy. Star Scientific has created the Hydrogen Energy Release Optimiser (HERO®), which produces unlimited, affordable, safe and reliable energy – with zero emissions. In the past thirty years at Star Scientific, Andrew has driven forward the company’s research around clean energy solutions that don’t risk the sustainability of Australia’s economy. In his discussion Andrew talks to:
How the hydrogen industry can support Australia’s own domestic energy crisis, rather than just the export opportunity for Australia. He also talks to the background of Star Scientific.
How Star Scientific discovered HERO® through its research on Muon-Catalysed Fusion. The vision, plans and priorities for Star Scientific over the next several years & how HERO® can be used to support key energy solutions, to transition to clean energy without risking financial viability.
How local hydrogen-based energy can boost export prospects, by more rapidly accelerating the coming of the hydrogen economy.
How local hydrogen energy can play a role in allowing Australian to maintain grid stability, energy security and economic prosperity as we transition to a clean energy economy.
The challenges and opportunities in the market and how HERO® can act as a demand-side market activator, a crucial bridge between the old (fossil fuel) and new (renewable) energy economies, and a balancing force in Australia’s energy mix
