据能源经济4月14日消息称，澳大利亚的Origin能源公司周三表示，已签署一项协议，扩大其在昆士兰州的绿色氢项目，目标是在本世纪20年代中期开始首次出口。

　　Origin公司正在与日本川崎重工合作开发一个300兆瓦的早期出口项目，目标是每年生产36500吨绿色液态氢。

　　川崎重工最早于2019年开始在澳大利亚建造氢气液化和运输设施，也是一家日本-澳大利亚合资企业的先锋，该企业已开始在一个试点项目中从褐煤中生产氢气。

　　绿色氢项目是帮助日本实现2050年净零碳排放目标的关键。在全球推动向清洁能源转型的过程中，它们对像Origin这样的石油和天然气公司也至关重要。

　　Origin表示，与汤斯维尔港签署的协议还将研究液化设施、新泊位和相关基础设施的开发。

　　该公司补充说，三方现在将把重点放在满足川崎重工目前正在开发的半商用规模的液氢运输船所需的工作上，以及未来的扩展机会。

　　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.
