据世界天然气网站1月28日消息 日本川崎重工（KHI）已将目光投向用氢气重建液化天然气（LNG）价值链。
氢被认为是帮助工业脱碳和帮助全球能源转型的关键元素。
其未来需求预计将来自交通、建筑和发电等各个领域。
据路透社报道，该公司计划建造两艘商业规模的船舶，到2030年进口22.5万吨氢气，到2050年建造80艘氢气运输船，每年进口900万吨氢气。
2030年和2040年与氢相关的目标销售额分别为1200亿日元（11.6亿美元）和3000亿日元。
KHI希望实现上述目标的项目是一个由日本和澳大利亚政府支持的5亿澳元（3.85亿美元）的试点项目。
第一批液化氢货物计划于今年春天从澳大利亚运往日本。
项目案例研究显示，氢能供应链（HESC）将包括生产、运输和储存，目标是以满足日本当地需求的规模向日本输送液化氢。

KHI gears up of major hydrogen supply chain push
Japan’s Kawasaki Heavy Industries has set sights Hydrogen is considered a key element to help decarbonize industries and aid the global energy transition.
Its future demand is expected to come from various segments including transport, building and power generation.
The company plans to build two commercial-scale ships to import 225,000 tonnes of hydrogen by 2030, and 80 hydrogen carriers to import 9 million tonnes a year by 2050, Reuters reports.
The targeted hydrogen-related sales amount to 120 billion yen ($1.16 billion) for 2030 and 300 billion yen for 2040.
The project through which KHI hopes to achieve the above-mentioned goal is a A$500 million ($385 million) pilot project supported by the Japanese and Australian governments.
Shipping of the first liquefied hydrogen cargo from Australia to Japan is planned for this spring.
The Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) will include production, transportation and storage, with the goal of delivering liquefied hydrogen to Japan on a scale that meets their local demand, according to the project case study.
