OVERVIEW
The Bristol Springs Renewable Electricity and Green Hydrogen Project is located 120km from Perth in the South West of Western Australia, and is on track to become one of the first and lowest cost green hydrogen projects in Australia. The Company completed a Definitive Feasibility Study on the Project in 2023.
The Project’s location, in close proximity to major existing infrastructure surrounding the Project, provides several strategic advantages. Nearby major infrastructure the Project has access to includes the existing 330kV Landwehr Electricity Terminal, allowing the Company to sell electricity via the South West Interconnected System (“SWIS” – Western Australia’s main energy grid); the Stirling Trunk Water Main, which is located ~3km from the planned hydrogen electrolyser plant, to procure water for green hydrogen electrolysis; as well as the Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline, for potential delivery of green hydrogen gas into domestic markets.
In September 2023, Frontier announced the proposed acquisition of Waroona Energy (WHE.TSXV), combining two adjacent projects to create a large-scale Australian renewable energy company, with shovel-ready solar generation of 355MW and the potential to expand to more than 1GW. Target transaction completion is December 2023.
The Company is pursuing a staged development approach targeting high demand markets and future growth opportunities. Given that the WA electricity grid is facing a major supply-demand deficit, the initial stages focus on electricity generation:
Firstly, a 120MW Solar farm – approvals, permits and grid connections are all in place.
Secondly, a 120MW hydrogen-fuelled (dual fuel) peaking plant – this can provide electricity during peak demand times and creates offtake for green hydrogen.
Thirdly, a 72MW green hydrogen electrolyser; a DFS has already been completed and submission for the Federal Government’s “Hydrogen Headstart” program is planned for 1Q2024, with the aim to secure subsidy funding.

INFRASTRUCTURE
The Project is ideally located in close proximity to multiple major infrastructure that can both accelerate the time to first production and reduce the overall capital cost. These include:

Landwehr Power Terminal
- 33/330kV transformer
- Connected to the SWIS which connects 2.3M customers in Western Australia
- 3.5km from Bristol Springs

Stirling Trunk Main Water Pipeline
- < 3km from Bristol Springs
- Frontier and Water Corporation have signed binding Water Supply Agreement to deliver up to 1,250kl/day, sufficient for 150MW of hydrogen electrolyser capacity
- See ASX announcement here

Gas Branching Point
- Dampier – Bunbury Pipeline (DBNGP)
- One of the largest capacity natural gas pipelines in Australia
- Study to include Hydrogen – underway (AGIG) – see ASX announcement here
- 3km from Bristol Springs
