据路透社4月8日奥斯陆报道，挪威国家石油公司(Equinor)和英国公用事业公司SSE周四表示，两家公司已同意在英国联合开发世界上第一座100%氢燃料发电厂。
氢被视为天然气发电和供热的潜在替代品，有助于实现全球气候目标。
两家公司表示，Keadby氢电厂的氢能峰值需求为1800兆瓦，发电量约900兆瓦，并减少英格兰东北部亨伯这个英国碳密集型产业集群的排放。
两家公司还补充道：“有了适当的政策机制，Keadby 氢电厂可以在十年内的末尾前上线。”
此外，Equinor和SSE还计划在Keadby建造一座900兆瓦的天然气发电厂，配备碳捕集技术以减少排放。
天然气燃烧时释放的二氧化碳将被捕集并永久封存在北海南部的海床下。
两家公司表示，Keadby 3工厂可能会在2027年投产，Equinor和SSE计划在今年春天提交开发许可申请。
Equinor还参与了一个项目，在赫尔附近的Saltend化学园区用天然气生产氢气，同时捕集并永久封存产生的二氧化碳。
Equinor表示，这个名为H2H Saltend的项目可以为Keadby氢电厂提供低碳氢。
目前，世界上大部分的氢都是通过天然气重整生产的，但这个过程也会排放二氧化碳，而且是不可持续的。碳捕集可以减少约90%的相关排放。
英国的目标是到2050年达到净零碳排放，为一些脱碳项目提供资金支持。

Equinor, SSE aim to build the world's first hydrogen power plant
Norwegian energy firm Equinor and British utility SSE have agreed to jointly develop the world’s first 100% hydrogen-fuelled power plant in Britain, the companies said on Thursday.
Hydrogen is seen as a potential replacement for natural gas in power and heat generation, helping to achieve global climate goals.
Keadby Hydrogen plant would have a peak demand of 1,800 megawatt (MW) of hydrogen, generating around 900 MW of electricity and reduce emissions from Britain’s most carbon-intensive industrial cluster in Humber, north-east England, the companies said.
“With appropriate policy mechanisms in place, Keadby Hydrogen could come online before the end of the decade,” they added.
In addition, Equinor and SSE plan to build a 900 MW natural gas-fired power plant at Keadby, fitted with carbon capture technology to reduce emissions.
The carbon dioxide (CO2) released when natural gas is burned will be captured and permanently stored under the seabed in the Southern North Sea.
The Keadby 3 plant could potentially start by 2027, with Equinor and SSE planning to submit a development consent application this spring, the companies said.
Equinor is also involved in a project to produce hydrogen from natural gas at Saltend Chemicals Park near Hull, while also capturing and permanently storing associated CO2.
The project, called H2H Saltend, could supply low-carbon hydrogen to the Keadby Hydrogen power plant, Equinor said.
Most of the hydrogen in the world is produced by reforming natural gas today, but the process also emits CO2 and is not sustainable. Carbon capture could reduce the associated emissions by around 90%.
Britain has a target to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050, providing financial support to a number of decarbonisation projects.
