Woodside Energy and Keppel have signed a conditional offtake term sheet for the supply of liquid hydrogen.
Under the agreement, Woodside will supply liquid hydrogen to power Keppel’s data centres in Singapore. The term sheet follows the signing of a non-binding Heads of Agreement between the two parties in 2023, and paves the way for an eventual binding offtake agreement as early as 2030.
The sources of liquid hydrogen would include Woodside’s proposed production facilities, including H2Perth.
Keppel intends for the potential liquid hydrogen supply to form part of a larger, long-term utility-scale lower carbon power portfolio that Keppel is building to power its assets.
Woodside CEO Meg O’Neill said the Term Sheet was a significant milestone, underpinning progress on hydrogen opportunities.
“We’re pleased to be working with Keppel on the potential for supply of lower carbon energy in the form of hydrogen to its data centres in Singapore,” Woodside CEO Meg O’Neil said.
“This opportunity builds on Woodside’s track record of being a safe and reliable supplier of energy to Asia for 35 years.”
Keppel CEO (Data Centres) Wong Wai Meng echoed this sentiment.
“As a leader in data centres, Keppel is pleased to deepen our collaboration with Woodside through the signing of an offtake term sheet, which has the ability to provide a reliable and stable source of lower carbon energy to power our assets in Singapore,” he said.
“As the energy transition unfolds, Keppel will continue to innovate and seek out likeminded partners to enhance and future proof our data centres as we position ourselves to better serve our customers on their journeys to net zero.”
