據世界天然氣8月9日消息稱，冰島電力公司 HS Orka 和總部位于英國的合資企業 Hydrogen Ventures Limited (H2V) 透露了開發綠色甲醇生產工廠的計劃，該工廠使用綠色氫為海洋部門提供動力。

　　雙方還打算使用這種清潔燃料為汽車、貨車和卡車等家用和商用車輛提供動力。

　　雙方還打算使用這種清潔燃料為家庭和商業車輛，如轎車、貨車和卡車提供動力。

　　正如所解釋的那樣，利用氫燃料運輸的新項目將有助于冰島實現到2040年實現碳中和的宏偉目標。冰島80%以上的能源消耗是基于可再生能源——主要是地熱和水力——但綠色氫項目的發展將使該國在可再生和清潔能源領域處于世界領先地位。

　　H2V 首席執行官Horacio Carvalho評論道：“冰島為減少碳排放設定了雄心勃勃的目標，我們相信利用氫能源是實現這一目標的關鍵。”

　　HS Orka的首席執行官Tómas Már Siguresson表示：“我們對與 H2V 的合作感到非常興奮……除了電力之外，HS Orka 還將能夠為他們提供淡水和天然二氧化碳，這對甲醇生產至關重要。”

　　具體而言，HS Orka/H2V 的項目將專注于利用地熱能生產綠色氫氣，然后將其用于合成燃料的生產。所有生產和使用的氫都將獲得“綠色氫”認證，這意味著用于產生氫的能源 100% 來自可再生能源。

　　該項目將包括兩個階段，初始輸入功率為 30MW，然后是規模更大的第二階段，用于生產綠色氫。

　　第一階段的總成本預計為1億歐元。

　　HS Orka, H2V team up on green hydrogen and methanol project

　　Icelandic power company HS Orka and UK-based joint venture Hydrogen Ventures Limited (H2V) have revealed plans to develop a production plant for green methanol using green hydrogen to power the marine sector.

　　The parties also intend to use this clean fuel to power domestic and commercial vehicles such as cars, vans and lorries.

　　As explained, the new project harnessing the power of hydrogen to fuel transportation will contribute to Iceland’s ambitious target of becoming carbon neutral by 2040. More than 80% of Iceland’s energy consumption is already based on renewables – primarily geothermal and hydro power – but the development of green hydrogen projects will position the country among world leaders in the field of renewable and clean energy.

　　“Iceland has set itself ambitious targets for reducing its carbon emissions and we believe harnessing the power of hydrogen is crucial in achieving them,” Horacio Carvalho, H2V’s Chief Executive Officer, commented.

　　“We are very excited about this collaboration with H2V… in addition to electricity, HS Orka will be able to supply them with fresh water and natural carbon dioxide, which is essential for the methanol production,” Tómas Már Siguresson, HS Orka’s CEO, said.

　　Specifically, HS Orka/H2V’s projects will focus on using geothermal energy to produce green hydrogen, which will then be used in the production of synthetic fuels. All the hydrogen created and used will be certified ‘green hydrogen’ meaning that 100% of the energy used to generate it comes from renewable sources.

　　This project will comprise two phases, with an initial 30MW input, followed by the second phase of a much larger scale for the production of green hydrogen.

　　The total cost of Phase One is anticipated to be €100 million.
