據(jù)世界天然氣9月16日消息稱，法國能源公司ENGIE正在開發(fā)據(jù)稱是世界上第一個(gè)工業(yè)規(guī)模的可再生氫項(xiàng)目，該項(xiàng)目位于西澳大利亞州的皮爾巴拉地區(qū)。

ENGIE正在與雅拉清潔氨合作開發(fā)名為Yuri的項(xiàng)目，該公司已經(jīng)做出了該項(xiàng)目的最終投資決定。

Yuri項(xiàng)目包括一個(gè)10兆瓦的電解廠和一個(gè)18兆瓦的太陽能光伏電場，其8兆瓦的電池儲(chǔ)能系統(tǒng)為電解提供必要的能源。

該項(xiàng)目的第一階段將于2024年完成，每年將生產(chǎn)多達(dá)640噸綠色氫氣，用于現(xiàn)有的Yara Pilbara氨廠生產(chǎn)綠色氨。

根據(jù)ENGIE的說法，這將是發(fā)展“皮爾巴拉綠色氫能樞紐”、服務(wù)當(dāng)?shù)睾统隹谑袌鲆约袄迷摰貐^(qū)現(xiàn)有的出口基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施和豐富的可再生能源資源的關(guān)鍵。

該項(xiàng)目的開發(fā)得到了澳大利亞政府ARENA可再生氫部署基金4750萬美元捐贈(zèng)和西澳大利亞政府可再生氫基金200萬美元捐款的支持。

ENGIE還與三井簽署了一項(xiàng)協(xié)議，根據(jù)該協(xié)議，三井同意收購Yuri項(xiàng)目合資公司28%的股份，但須滿足協(xié)議規(guī)定的某些條件。

ENGIE and Yara pressing ahead with renewable hydrogen project in Australia

French energy player ENGIE is progressing with the development of what is said to be one of the world’s first industrial-scale renewable hydrogen projects located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia (WA).

ENGIE, which is working on the project named Yuri in partnership with Yara Clean Ammonia, has taken the final investment decision (FID) in the development of the project.

The Yuri project includes a 10MW electrolysis plant and an 18 MW solar photovoltaic (PV) farm with its 8 MW battery energy storage system (BESS) providing the necessary energy for the electrolysis.

In its first phase, to be completed in 2024, the project will produce up to 640 tonnes of green hydrogen per annum for use in the existing Yara Pilbara ammonia plant to produce green ammonia.

According to ENGIE, this will be a key to developing a “Pilbara Green Hydrogen Hub”, serving local and export markets, and building on existing export infrastructure and abundant renewable energy resources in the region.

The project is being developed with the support of a $47.5 million grant from the Australian Government’s ARENA Renewable Hydrogen Deployment Fund and a $2 million grant from the Western Australian Government’s Renewable Hydrogen Fund.

ENGIE has also executed an agreement with Mitsui & Co., Ltd., pursuant to which Mitsui has agreed to acquire a 28% stake in the joint venture company for the Yuri project, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions under the agreement.
