中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社11月13日墨爾本報道,澳大利亞——世界上最大的煤炭出口國和第二大LNG出口國,希望圍繞開發太陽能和風能以及褐煤來生產氫氣,打造下一個能源產業。 同樣的燃料用來推動火箭進入太空,氫有未開發的能源潛力,而且沒有天然氣和煤炭的碳排放的負面影響。 根據咨詢公司ACIL Allen為澳大利亞可再生能源機構所做的一份報告,澳大利亞正尋求到2030年向中國、日本、韓國和新加坡供應70億美元的氫市場。 據ACIL Allen、澳大利亞政府及當地天然氣生產商伍德賽德石油公司稱,氫出口最初只占澳大利亞LNG出口的一小部分,預計在2019年將達到480億澳元(合350億美元),但其增長速度可能與澳大利亞LNG行業過去30年的增長速度相同。 全球減少碳排放的努力,以及風能和太陽能成本的下降,使氫燃料在40多年前被提出后,在如今成為了一個機遇。 西澳大利亞地區發展部長Alannah MacTiernan告訴路透社:“我們的許多傳統天然氣市場(日本、韓國),都采取了將氫和最終可再生氫,置于他們未來能源核心的戰略。因此,我們希望確保我們有能力為這個市場提供服務?!?今年10月25日,澳大利亞啟動了一個可再生氫委員會,包括伍德賽德,法國電力生產商恩吉薩,挪威亞拉國際,形成了一個利用土地,風能和太陽能資源生產氫的計劃。 詹曉晶摘自路透社 原文如下: Rocket fuel: Australia targets hydrogen as next big energy export Australia, the world’s biggest coal exporter and second-biggest liquefied natural gas (LNG) exporter, wants to build its next big energy industry around exploiting solar and wind power along with brown coal to produce hydrogen. The same fuel used to power rockets into space, hydrogen has untapped energy potential without the downside of the carbon emissions from natural gas and coal. Australia is seeking to supply what could be a $7 billion market for hydrogen to China, Japan, South Korea and Singapore by 2030, according to a report done for the Australian Renewable Energy Agency by consultants ACIL Allen. While initially just a fraction of Australia’s LNG exports, forecast at A$48 billion ($35 billion) in 2019, hydrogen exports could grow the same way that Australia’s LNG industry has over the past 30 years, according to ACIL Allen, the Australian government, and local gas producer Woodside Petroleum. The global drive to cut carbon emissions and the falling cost of wind and solar power has turned hydrogen fuel into an opportunity now after the idea was mooted more than four decades ago. “Many of our traditional gas markets — Japan, Korea — have adopted strategies that put hydrogen and ultimately renewable hydrogen at the core of their energy future. So we want to make sure we’ve got the capability of providing for that market,” Western Australia’s Regional Development Minister Alannah MacTiernan told Reuters. The state on Oct. 25 launched a Renewable Hydrogen Council, including Woodside, French power producer Engie SA, and Norway’s Yara International, to form a plan to use land, wind and solar resources to produce hydrogen. ?
