MEDIA RELEASE: Endua receives $4.88 million boost to advance hydrogen electrolyser technology
Endua receives $4.88 million boost to advance hydrogen electrolyser technology, Brisbane, QLD – 15/07/2025
Australian clean-tech company Endua has secured $4.88 million in funding through the Australian Government’s Industry Growth Program, helping the company to advance the performance and manufacturing growth of its proprietary PEM electrolyser technology.
This represents a key milestone in the commercialisation of Australian-made hydrogen technology, supporting the federal government’s strategic focus on renewables and low-emission technologies. By expanding local supply chains and advanced manufacturing capabilities, Endua’s AHEAD project (Advanced Hydrogen Electrolyser for Australian Decarbonisation) aligns with national priorities to grow clean energy industries and reduce reliance on imported technologies.
At the core of the project is Endua’s high-performance PEM (proton exchange membrane) electrolyser – a modular, all-in-one product designed for on-site hydrogen production. The system’s compact footprint, flexible output and plug-and-play configuration simplifies deployment, and reduces the burden on project developers by minimising site works, infrastructure and commissioning complexity.
“This funding represents an exciting milestone in our mission to deliver world-leading hydrogen electrolyser products directly to the industries and locations where they're needed most,” said Paul Sernia, CEO of Endua. “It will enable us to build critical local supply chain capability and manufacturing expertise, positioning us to capture future growth opportunities both in Australia and internationally.”
Endua’s technology is designed to address the growing demand for clean, reliable energy by enabling on-demand hydrogen production at point of use. By eliminating the need for complex transportation and storage infrastructure, the system provides greater energy independence and supply certainty – particularly for industries operating in decentralised locations. The product supports emission reduction objectives across sectors such as transport, remote power and industrial fuels and gases. It will also pave the way for future industries that rely on hydrogen as a feedstock, including ammonia and sustainable fuels.
The AHEAD project supports Australia’s broader transition to a low-emissions economy by accelerating adoption of locally developed clean energy solutions. By harnessing renewable inputs and enabling distributed hydrogen generation, Endua’s technology contributes to national goals around energy resilience, decarbonisation and advanced manufacturing.
Engineered and built in South East Queensland, the electrolyser can be installed quickly without major site modifications, making clean energy more accessible to businesses across Australia.
Endua is proud to be supported by the Australian Government through the Industry Growth Program, administered by the Department of Industry, Science and Resources – which plays a vital role in advancing Australian innovation and clean energy leadership.
