• Examines using offshore wind power for hydrogen production with low-cost solar photovoltaic renewable generation. • Model optimizes generation, storage and electrolyser capacities to find the least-cost solution for hydrogen production in Australia. • Offshore wind has a potentially useful role to play in supporting hydrogen production, but taking advantage of this opportunity requires careful site selection. • Future offshore wind prices need to fall for a hydrogen cost of around AUD2/kg, equivalent to the Australian federal government cost target.
