據阿納多盧新聞3月23日消息稱，英國石油周三宣布，英國石油將與海上風力開發商丸紅合作，探索海上風力和其他可能的脫碳項目，包括在日本的氫項目。

作為協議的一部分，英國石油公司將與丸紅公司一起參與日本海上風電項目的競標，并購買該項目49%的股份。

丸紅在風能領域擁有豐富的知識，總發電量約為 12 吉瓦，并參與了全球超過 2 吉瓦陸上和海上風電的開發和運營。

此外，丸紅是首個大型商業海上風電項目（140 兆瓦秋田海上風電場）的開發、許可和建設的主要合作伙伴，該項目迄今已在日本完成融資。

此外，根據合作伙伴關系，英國石油將在東京建立一個當地海上風力開發團隊。

日本的目標是在2050年達到碳中和，它設定了一個目標，到2030年部署10吉瓦的海上風電產能，到 2040 年達到 45 吉瓦。

bp and Marubeni partner to pursue offshore wind in Japan

bp will partner with offshore wind developer Marubeni to explore offshore wind and potentially other decarbonization projects, including hydrogen in Japan, bp announced on Wednesday.

As part of their agreement, bp will join Marubeni in their proposal for an offshore wind project off the coast of Japan, purchasing a 49% stake in the proposed project.

Marubeni has extensive knowledge in the wind energy sector, with a total power generating capacity of about 12 gigawatts and involvement in the development and operation of more than 2 gigawatts of onshore and offshore wind power globally.

Additionally, Marubeni is the lead partner in the development, permitting and construction of the first large-scale, commercial offshore wind project, the 140-megawatt Akita offshore wind farm, to achieve a financial close in Japan to date.

Moreover, under the partnership, bp will establish a local offshore wind development team in Tokyo.

Japan, with its aim to become carbon neutral by 2050, has set a target of deploying 10 gigawatts of offshore wind capacity by 2030 and up to 45 gigawatts by 2040.
