Energy Pipelines Cooperative Research Centre
Program Leader, Associate Professor Peter Ashman
The Energy Pipelines CRC (EPCRC) undertakes research and education of relevance to the energy pipeline industry in Australia. The EPCRC aims to provide the Australian energy pipeline industry with the technology necessary to extend the safe operating life of Australia's ageing natural gas transmission network, avoiding the need for replacement; build the new pipeline networks needed to support increased demand for natural gas; build the new pipeline networks that will enable the transmission of new energy cycle fluids such as hydrogen and carbon dioxide; and prevent pipeline failures that could lead to consequential costs and harm to public health and safety and other infrastructure.
