据2月18日offshore energy消息：挪威能源巨头Equinor和法国公用事业公司Engie达成合作伙伴关系，共同开发低碳氢项目，为2050年实现零排放铺平道路。
合作伙伴将调查天然气制氢的生产和市场潜力，从而将二氧化碳捕集并永久存储在海上。
Engie和Equinor签署了一份谅解备忘录，调查比利时，荷兰和法国的低碳氢价值链发展情况。
在未来几个月，Engie和Equinor将开始与潜在客户、利益相关者和相关部门进行讨论，以评估项目。
Engie和Equinor认为，为了使工业客户能够在2030年前显著减少二氧化碳排放，大规模开发低碳和可再生氢项目至关重要。
低碳和可再生氢的发展将加快新氢基础设施的建设和现有天然气基础设施的再利用，从而为2050年的净零排放铺平道路。
Engie全球能源管理部门首席执行官Edouard Neviaski表示：“ Engie坚信氢将在能源转型中发挥关键作用。 Engie生产可再生氢，并支持低碳氢市场的发展。这两种技术对于加速发展坚实的基础设施和向碳中和经济过渡都是必要的。”
Equinor低碳解决方案高级副总裁Grete Tveit表示:“Equinor的目标是成为能源转型的领导者。我们相信，如果要成功地实现这一转变，氢气和二氧化碳捕获和储存将至关重要。”
“共同寻找最佳解决方案是绝对必要的合作。我们两家公司拥有互补的专业知识领域，可以利用它们共同制定低碳氢开发计划。”
Engie还与另一家油气巨头法国道达尔合作，设计、开发、建造和运营法国最大的可再生氢生产基地。

Equinor and Engie team up for low-carbon hydrogen projects
Norway’s energy giant Equinor and French utility company Engie have entered into a partnership to develop joint low-carbon hydrogen activities, paving the way for net-zero in 2050.
The partners will investigate the production and market potential for hydrogen from natural gas whereby the CO2 will be captured and stored permanently offshore, Equinor said on Thursday.
Engie and Equinor signed a memorandum of understanding to investigate the development of low-carbon hydrogen value chains in Belgium, the Netherlands, and France.
In the coming months, Engie and Equinor will start discussions with potential customers to assess the project, as well as with stakeholders and relevant authorities.
Engie and Equinor believe that it is essential to develop low-carbon and renewable hydrogen projects at scale in order to make it possible for industrial customers to significantly reduce CO2 emissions before 2030.
This development of low carbon and renewable hydrogen will accelerate the construction of new hydrogen infrastructure and the repurposing of current natural gas infrastructure, thus paving the way for net zero in 2050.
Edouard Neviaski, CEO of the Engie’s Business Unit Global Energy Management says: “Engie firmly believes that hydrogen will play a key role in the energy transition. Engie produces renewable hydrogen and supports the development of the market for low-carbon hydrogen. Both these technologies will be necessary to accelerate the development of a solid infrastructure and the transition to a carbon-neutral economy”.
Grete Tveit, Equinor’s senior vice president for Low Carbon Solutions says: “Equinor aims to be a leading company in the energy transition. We believe that hydrogen and CCS will be vital if we are going to succeed with the transition.
“Collaboration and partnerships will be absolutely necessary to find the best solutions. Our two companies have complementary areas of expertise that we can utilize to develop low carbon hydrogen initiatives together”.
Engie is also collaborating with another oil and gas major, French Total, to design, develop, build and operate France’s largest renewable hydrogen production site.
