Bioplant Energy is developing a state-of-the-art Waste to Energy (WTE) and Hydrogen facility in Morwell, Victoria. This flagship Australian project will process over 200,000 tonnes of non-recyclable waste annually — including end-of-life tyres, conveyor belts and unrecyclable plastics — using GGII's advanced pyrolysis technology. The plant will convert waste into renewable diesel, green electricity, hydrogen, and biochar, while significantly reducing landfill use and greenhouse gas emissions.
The project will be delivered in two stages, ultimately accommodating 10 pyrolysis lines with the capacity to produce:
25 million litres of diesel per year
Over 2.5 million kg of hydrogen annually
120 MW of electricity
70 tonnes/day of biochar or carbon black
Bioplant Morwell has secured offtake agreements with Global Oil Company (diesel and hydrogen), Major Electricity retailer (electricity), and others for waste feedstock and recycled steel. The project will generate income from product sales, Renewable Diesel, carbon credits, and waste gate fees. Environmental approvals are scheduled for early 2026, with engineering support from Black & Veatch and permitting led by JBS&G.
This project positions Morwell as a clean energy hub, supporting regional economic development and job creation, while contributing to Australia’s circular economy and renewable energy targets.
