Chris holds degrees in Bachelor Business Administration and Bachelor of Arts (Psychology) from
Macquarie University and a Diploma in Marketing from Cambridge Marketing College.
Chris works on Hydrogen Project Development in both Australia with a focus on mobility projects
and decarbonising hard to abate sectors including the mining sector. Decarbonisation allows
Australia to move further into the supply chain and with further domestic processing as we re-shape
our economy for the net zero world.
Chris is a board Member on the Australian Hydrogen council as well as an active member of the
NERA hydrogen clusters including the being a founding Board member of SAH2, a member of the
VH2 Advisory Council as supporting various state based Zero Emission working groups. Additionally,
Chris brings an extended network to partners as well as BOC colleagues supporting Standards
Australia for Hydrogen and the Australian New Zealand Industrial Gas Association which has been
working with hydrogen safely and effectively for decades.
Collaboration as well as safety are key components for the hydrogen sector to maximise
opportunities both locally and with exports into the future. Project proponents within the hydrogen
and renewables sector all bring different skill sets with strong partnerships the key to expediting
projects.
The hydrogen economy remains a significant opportunity for Australia while sharing learnings from
projects will allow the sector to develop more quickly. Chris has worked to share key learnings to the
BOC ARENA funded Bulwer Island project and will continue to share learnings from all projects with
the sector to ensure it develops quickly.
