中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社11月13日墨尔本报道,澳大利亚——世界上最大的煤炭出口国和第二大LNG出口国,希望围绕开发太阳能和风能以及褐煤来生产氢气,打造下一个能源产业。 同样的燃料用来推动火箭进入太空,氢有未开发的能源潜力,而且没有天然气和煤炭的碳排放的负面影响。 根据咨询公司ACIL Allen为澳大利亚可再生能源机构所做的一份报告,澳大利亚正寻求到2030年向中国、日本、韩国和新加坡供应70亿美元的氢市场。 据ACIL Allen、澳大利亚政府及当地天然气生产商伍德赛德石油公司称,氢出口最初只占澳大利亚LNG出口的一小部分,预计在2019年将达到480亿澳元(合350亿美元),但其增长速度可能与澳大利亚LNG行业过去30年的增长速度相同。 全球减少碳排放的努力,以及风能和太阳能成本的下降,使氢燃料在40多年前被提出后,在如今成为了一个机遇。 西澳大利亚地区发展部长Alannah MacTiernan告诉路透社:“我们的许多传统天然气市场(日本、韩国),都采取了将氢和最终可再生氢,置于他们未来能源核心的战略。因此,我们希望确保我们有能力为这个市场提供服务。” 今年10月25日,澳大利亚启动了一个可再生氢委员会,包括伍德赛德,法国电力生产商恩吉萨,挪威亚拉国际,形成了一个利用土地,风能和太阳能资源生产氢的计划。 詹晓晶摘自路透社 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.
