據能源經濟4月14日消息稱，澳大利亞的Origin能源公司周三表示，已簽署一項協議，擴大其在昆士蘭州的綠色氫項目，目標是在本世紀20年代中期開始首次出口。

　　Origin公司正在與日本川崎重工合作開發一個300兆瓦的早期出口項目，目標是每年生產36500噸綠色液態氫。

　　川崎重工最早于2019年開始在澳大利亞建造氫氣液化和運輸設施，也是一家日本-澳大利亞合資企業的先鋒，該企業已開始在一個試點項目中從褐煤中生產氫氣。

　　綠色氫項目是幫助日本實現2050年凈零碳排放目標的關鍵。在全球推動向清潔能源轉型的過程中，它們對像Origin這樣的石油和天然氣公司也至關重要。

　　Origin表示，與湯斯維爾港簽署的協議還將研究液化設施、新泊位和相關基礎設施的開發。

　　該公司補充說，三方現在將把重點放在滿足川崎重工目前正在開發的半商用規模的液氫運輸船所需的工作上，以及未來的擴展機會。

　　Australia's Origin Energy signs green hydrogen project expansion deal

　　Australia's Origin Energy said on Wednesday it has signed a deal for the expansion of its green hydrogen project in Queensland, with first export targeted from the mid-2020s.

　　Origin is working with Japan's Kawasaki Heavy Industries on the 300 megawatts early export project that aims to produce 36,500 tonnes per annum of green liquid hydrogen.

　　Kawasaki first began building facilities in Australia to liquefy and ship hydrogen in 2019 and is also at the forefront of a Japanese-Australian venture that has begun producing hydrogen from brown coal in a pilot project.

　　Green hydrogen projects are key to helping Japan meet its target of net zero carbon emissions by 2050. They are also crucial to oil and gas firms such as Origin amid a global push for a transition towards cleaner forms of energy.

　　The deal, signed with the Port of Townsville, will also look into the development of a liquefaction facility, new berth and associated infrastructure, Origin said.

　　The three parties will now focus on work required to accommodate Kawasaki's semi-commercial scale liquid hydrogen carriers, currently under development, and future expansion opportunities, it added.
