New EU-Australia trade deal enhances hydrogen market and industrial growth. Key points. * Tariff-free access for Australian industrial goods to the EU is now a reality. * The deal aims to boost exports significantly, particularly in hydrogen and energy sectors. * Australia is positioned as a key supplier of green hydrogen to Europe. * Investment in Australian hydrogen projects is encouraged under the new agreement. The recent free trade agreement between the European Union (EU) and Australia represents a significant shift in the industrial landscape, particularly concerning the energy and gas markets. Announced by European Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen, this deal, which took eight years to finalize, allows all Australian industrial goods exports to the EU to be tariff-free. This pivotal agreement is anticipated to add nearly A$8 billion (approximately $5.25 billion) to Australia's GDP, while EU exports to Australia are projected to increase by 33% over the next decade. One of the focal points of this trade deal is the removal of a 5.5% tariff on hydrogen and its derivatives, which is expected to enhance the industrial gas market significantly. This change not only strengthens supply chains for critical minerals - essential for energy technologies - but also ensures that the EU has access to a secure and diversified source of raw materials. This will help reduce the EU's dependence on other global markets. The agreement also promotes investment in Australian hydrogen projects and encourages collaborative renewable energy ventures. It incorporates enforceable climate commitments aligned with the Paris Agreement, aiming to harmonize industrial development with environmental sustainability. Australia's move towards clean industry is projected to unlock an economic opportunity worth nearly A$300 billion (around $213 billion), highlighting the immense potential of transitioning to greener energy sources. Australia has increasingly positioned itself as a future supplier of green hydrogen, particularly to regions like Europe. For instance, Germany is collaborating with Australia to establish a double-sided auction system for selling Australian-made green hydrogen on the European market. Additionally, the Australian government has initiated a guarantee of origin scheme aimed at verifying the emissions intensity of clean hydrogen production to bolster export capabilities. However, the hydrogen sector in Australia faced challenges in 2024 and 2025 despite the promising subsidy schemes for producers. Currently, Australia's gas production is evenly distributed, with Western Australia and New South Wales each contributing 30%, and South Australia providing 18%. In a related development, Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group has commissioned a new air separation unit (ASU) in Brisbane to produce liquid oxygen and nitrogen for various markets, further solidifying Australia's position in the industrial gas sector. This strategic deal enhances Australia's global liquefied natural gas (LNG) export status, particularly in light of production declines from QatarEnergy due to ongoing conflicts in the Middle East. Overall, the EU-Australia trade agreement not only strengthens economic ties but also positions both regions for a greener, more sustainable future. March 24, 2026 at 09:40 AM Brisbane, Australia
