中国石化新闻网讯 据能源世界网10月23日墨尔本报道，澳大利亚将加快西澳大利亚一个全球最大的风能和太阳能项目的审批进程，该项目计划在2020S末开始发电、生产氢和氨。 堪培拉周五表示，已授予亚洲可再生能源中心（AREH）"主要项目地位”，这是一项耗资360亿美元的项目，旨在初期建设15吉瓦的发电量，并最终扩大至26吉瓦。 满负荷运行时，该项目每年可发电100兆瓦时。 相比之下，澳大利亚去年的发电量为265太瓦时。 该项目位于干旱的皮尔巴拉地区占地6,500平方公里，是卢森堡面积的两倍多。 工业部长卡伦·安德鲁斯（Karen Andrews）在一份声明中表示，该工厂不仅能够大规模出口，还能够为该地区的工业提供供应，同时创造新的就业机会和经济增长。 AREH是由私有的洲际能源公司、可再生能源开发商CWP能源亚洲公司、全球顶级风力涡轮机制造商Vestas和麦格理集团基金开发的。 该项目自2014年以来一直在计划中，从生产风能和太阳能并将其传输到亚洲的计划，转向使用清洁电力分裂水和生产氢，然后出口氨的计划。 AREH的目标是在2025年做出最终投资决定。 洲际能源董事总经理亚历克斯·唐考克（Alex Tancock）表示，绿色氢比可再生能源提供了更大的机会，因为它可以使一些依赖石油和天然气的行业（例如航运，航空，制造和化工）脱碳。 Tancock告诉路透社称，所有这些都需要绿色氢。因此，这才是真正令人兴奋的原因。 日本的JERA已经表示，它希望在其燃煤电厂中使用氨，以帮助从2030年开始减少碳排放，并在其燃气电厂中掺入氢气。 AREH上周从西澳大利亚州政府获得了该项目第一阶段的环境批准，该项目包括10吉瓦的风能和5吉瓦的太阳能。 Tancock表示，未来的主要风险不是融资，而是对绿色氢能源需求增长的速度。 郝芬 译自 能源世界网 原文如下: Australia fast tracks mega renewable energy, hydrogen project Australia will fast track the approvals process for one of the world's biggest wind and solar projects in Western Australia, which aims to start generating power and producing hydrogen and ammonia late this decade. Canberra on Friday said it had awarded "major project status" to Asian Renewable Energy Hub (AREH), a $36 billion project that aims to initially build 15 gigawatts of power capacity and eventually expand to 26 GW. At full capacity, the project could generate up to 100 terawatt hours a year. By comparison, Australia generated 265 terawatt hours last year. The site is 6,500 square kilometres, more than double the size of Luxembourg, in the arid Pilbara region. "Not only will the plant be able to export at scale, it will also be able to supply industries in the region while creating new job opportunities and economic growth," Industry Minister Karen Andrews said in a statement. AREH is being developed by privately owned InterContinental Energy, renewables developer CWP Energy Asia, top global wind turbine maker Vestas and a Macquarie Group fund. The project, on the drawing board since 2014, has switched from a plan to produce wind and solar power and transmit it to Asia, to a plan to use clean power to split water and produce hydrogen and then ammonia for export. AREH aims to make a final investment decision in 2025. InterContinental Energy Managing Director Alex Tancock said green hydrogen offered a much bigger opportunity than renewable power, as it could decarbonise several industries that rely on oil and gas, such as shipping, aviation, manufacturing and chemicals. "All of those things require green hydrogen. So that's what really makes it so exciting," Tancock told Reuters. Japan's JERA has said it wants to use ammonia in its coal-fired plants to help cut carbon emissions starting in 2030 and mix in hydrogen at its gas-fired power plants. AREH last week received environmental approval from the West Australian government for the first stage of the project, comprising 10 GW of wind capacity and 5 GW of solar. Tancock said the main risk ahead was not financing, but how rapidly demand for green hydrogen grows. |
