Scientists sound the alarm for Nullarbor's fragile limestone caves and unique underground creatures
Briefly

The Western Green Energy Hub aims to establish the world's largest hydrogen export facility on the Nullarbor plain, featuring up to 3,000 wind turbines and 60 million solar modules with a capacity of 70GW. This colossal project, which could house up to 8,000 workers, risks the fragile ecosystem of an internationally significant limestone cave system underneath. While the area is characterized by its remote beauty, scientists caution that the development may irreversibly impact unique subterranean species and the ecological integrity of a landscape that has been protected by its remoteness.
The proposed development of the world's largest hydrogen export hub threatens the fragile limestone cave system beneath the Nullarbor plain, a unique ecological treasure.
The Western Green Energy Hub's ultra-scale hydrogen proposal could dramatically alter the landscape, raising concerns from environmental scientists about the impact on local ecosystems.
