Australia Passes Future-Made Production Tax Credits

Dept of Climate Change, Energy, Environment & Water

The Australian Government's Future Made in Australia (Production Tax Credit and Other Measures) Bill 2024 passed the Senate.

This legislation implements production tax incentives for renewable hydrogen and critical minerals.

The incentives are:

  1. Hydrogen Production Tax Incentive worth $2 per kilogram of renewable hydrogen produced between 2027-2028 and 2039-40 for up to ten years per project.
  2. Critical Minerals Production Tax Incentive worth ten per cent of relevant processing and refining costs for Australia's 31 critical minerals, for critical minerals processed and refined between 2027-28 and 2039-40, for up to ten years per project.

The incentives will support Australia's efforts to decarbonise our industries, and produce and process more of the minerals needed for the energy transition.
