据天然气工业12月17日消息称，西班牙公用事业公司Naturgy和天然气系统运营商Enagas正联手建设一座年产9000吨清洁氢工厂，政策制定者希望这种燃料能帮助减少工业碳排放。
由于拥有阳光充足的平原和发达的天然气基础设施，西班牙热衷于引领国际努力，以降低利用可再生能源生产氢的高成本。
Naturgy和Enagas在一份声明中表示，他们将在西班牙西北部一家燃煤电厂附近建造一座太阳能电厂，为电解设备提供动力，将水分解为氢气和氧气。该燃煤电厂已于去年关闭。
该太阳能设施的发电能力将达到400兆瓦，电解槽的发电能力将达到60兆瓦。西班牙的目标是到2030年装机容量达到4吉瓦，这是到2030年欧盟整个目标的十分之一。
西班牙的另一家公用事业公司Iberdrola目前正致力于扩大其氢项目的规模，并寻求欧盟资金，希望到2027年在西班牙建立800兆瓦的电解能力。
Naturgy和Enagas也在寻求欧盟7500亿欧元（合9175.5亿美元）的救助方案支持，以帮助其摆脱冠状病毒引起的衰退。两家公司没有透露该工厂何时建成或投资规模。
布鲁塞尔希望各成员国将其中37%的资金用于有助于减少温室气体排放的项目。

Naturgy, Enagas team up to build clean hydrogen plant in Spain
Spanish utility Naturgy and gas system operator Enagas are joining forces to build a plant capable of making 9,000 tonnes a year of clean hydrogen, a fuel that policymakers hope can help slash carbon emissions from industry.
Replete with sunny plains and well-developed gas infrastructure, Spain is keen to lead an international effort to bring down the high costs of producing hydrogen from renewable power sources.
Naturgy and Enagas said in a statement they would build a solar plant to power an electrolysis facility to split water into hydrogen and oxygen near the site of a coal-fired plant in northwestern Spain that Naturgy closed last year.
The solar facility will have 400 megawatts (MW) capacity and the electrolyser up to 60 MW. Spain aims to install 4 gigawatts (GW) of capacity by 2030, Another Spanish utility, Iberdrola, is currently working Naturgy and Enagas are also seeking support for their project from a 750 billion euro ($917.55 billion) rescue package the EU has mustered to help drag its economies out of coronavirus-induced recession. The companies did not say when the plant would be built or the size of investment.
Brussels wants member states to channel 37% of this package to projects that can help reduce greenhouse gases.
