We actively contribute our knowledge and develop our technical expertise in the hydrogen and new energy sectors through partnering with industry and academia. Activities are as follows:

NERA 

Several Fyfe team members are involved in NERA hydrogen clusters around Australia. This allows our experts access to the latest information and advancements in Australia’s hydrogen industry, while collaborating with cross-sector participants to facilitate the achievement of scale in the technology.

Australian Standards

Jaron Whalley, Principal Mechanical Engineer at Fyfe is a member of the Australian Standards ME93 working group and is contributing to developing new ISO 19880 standards for gaseous hydrogen refuelling stations focusing on mechanical and non-mechanical compressors.

Methane pyrolysis for hydrogen production

Fyfe is involved in the Future Fuels CRC (FFCRC). In conjunction with the Universities of Queensland and Adelaide, Fyfe is supporting essential research into the hydrogen supply chain, specifically, identifying the potential of methane pyrolysis in hydrogen production.

Fyfe is pleased to be involved in these projects, to share our knowledge and technical skills in the new energies and hydrogen sectors, and to better support our clients.
