Geraldton Export-Scale Renewable Investment (GERI)

World class renewables and proximity to potential customers make Western Australia’s Mid West an optimal location for bp’s proposed green hydrogen project - ‘GERI’

About GERI 

Project GERI is a large-scale integrated renewables and green hydrogen project, targeting sales to domestic and international markets in the mid 2030s.


The plan is for it to be a phased development involving up to 14GW of wind and solar generation to produce power and green hydrogen for domestic consumption and future export. 


Subject to regulatory approvals and agreements with landowners, wind turbines and solar panel arrays could be located on land in proximity to proposed downstream facilities at the Oakajee Strategic Industrial Area. 

 

bp has recently been allocated 220 hectares at Oakajee, which has the potential to be developed into a world-class renewable energy-powered hydrogen production hub creating local jobs and clean energy industry opportunities.

 

Delivering low-carbon opportunities

GERI is designed to help decarbonise heavy industry, power networks and long-haul heavy transport and potentially deliver a range of new low-carbon opportunities for the Mid West region.
