At our 2025 Ideathon: Hydrogen Horizons, we asked competitors to design a scalable, real-world supply chain to safely and efficiently deliver green liquid hydrogen to support Latrobe Airport Technology Precinct’s transition to zero-emissions aviation.

It was so amazing to see everyone coming up with fresh ideas on how Latrobe City can operate a fully Hydrogen Aircraft fleet!

Competitors were able to learn about green hydrogen in Australia, use their problem-solving skills for sustainability, score a free lunch, and competed for a $4000 prize pool awards from key sponsors: Latrobe City, Vestas and Monash Energy Institute.

This Ideathon was about ideas - thinking outside the box, with mentors from industry present to guide solutions.

With mentors from Vestas, Energys and AMSL Aero; in the renewables, hydrogen and consulting spaces - competitors got a variety of feedback throughout the day.

Congratulations to Team 2, our winners of Latrobe City's Best Overall Solution $2000 Award, Team 8 for winning Vestas' $1000 Best Technical Solution, and Team 13 for taking home the Monash Energy Institute $1000 award for most innovative.

Thank you to everyone who came, we hope you all feel more confident in your knowledge of green hydrogen, and are inspired to take part in the exciting future of sustainable energy. 

We look forward to seeing you at our next events!
