据世界天然气8月16日消息称,HEGRA 公司于 2021 年 8 月 16 日在挪威成立,旨在为 Her?ya 的氨工厂实现电气化和脱碳,并实现大规模的绿色氨生产。
HEGRA是 HE r?ya GReen Ammonia 的缩写,由 Yara、Aker Clean Hydrogen 和 Statkraft 共同拥有,各占1/3。
“Aker、Yara和Statkraft公司建立HEGRA的目标是在挪威创建新的工业,在全球不断增长的氢经济中提供竞争优势,为未来建立绿色就业岗位,并为挪威未来的出口工业奠定基础。”
利用可再生能源生产的绿色氨将使无碳肥料的生产成为可能,据说是一种很有前途的零排放海洋燃料。
如前所述,HEGRA将有助于创建一个基于区域氢和氨市场的新产业,同时确保挪威海事和加工业的生存和竞争力。
HEGRA董事会主席Auke Lont指出:“HEGRA不仅仅是一家新的工业公司,它还是挪威最大的气候项目。脱碳项目每年将减少80万吨二氧化碳排放,相当于30万辆化石燃料汽车。这标志着挪威绿色氨和氢价值链的开始。”
在国际市场上,由于法规和客户的需求,加工行业的排放成本预计会增加。为了实现必要的减排,挪威工业和海事部门需要获得清洁的氢和氨。
HEGRA 汇集了挪威在氨、项目开发和能源市场方面的专家。如果现场有电力供应并且所需的公共联合资金到位,则该项目可以在 5-7 年后实现。
挪威航运业计划到2030年将其排放量减少一半。HEGRA项目合作伙伴表示,获得无排放燃料将是实现这一目标的关键。
现有的全球氨基础设施将促进挪威绿氨立即成为全球商品。由于可再生能源的丰富,挪威似乎处于有利地位,可以在新兴的全球绿色氢和氨价值链中占有很大份额。
挪威企业联合会 2020 年发布的一份报告发现,氢工业可以成为挪威重要的出口行业,预计 2030 年的营业额为 100 亿挪威克朗,2050 年的营业额为 700 亿挪威克朗。

New green ammonia firm launched in Norway
HEGRA, a company that aims to electrify and decarbonize the ammonia plant at Her?ya and enable large-scale green ammonia production, was launched in Norway align="justify"> HEGRA is short for HEr?ya GReen Ammonia, and is co-owned by Yara, Aker Clean Hydrogen and Statkraft each owning 1/3.
“Aker, Yara and Statkraft have established HEGRA with the ambition of creating new industry in Norway that provides a competitive advantage in a growing global hydrogen economy, establishes green jobs for the future and forms the basis for a future Norwegian export industry,” CEOs Svein Tore Holsether, ?yvind Eriksen and Christian Rynning-T?nnesen in Yara, Aker and Statkraft, said, respectively, in a joint statement.
Green ammonia, produced using renewable energy, would enable the production of carbon-free fertilizer, and is said to be a promising zero-emission fuel for the maritime sector.
As explained, HEGRA will contribute to creating a new industry based align="justify"> “HEGRA is more than a new industrial company, it is Norway’s largest climate initiative. The decarbonization project will reduce CO2-emissions by 800,000 tonnes annually, equivalent to 300,000 fossil-fueled cars. It marks the beginning of developing a Norwegian value chain for green ammonia and hydrogen,” Auke Lont, Chair of HEGRA’s Board, pointed out.
The costs of emissions in the processing industry are expected to increase in the international market as a result of regulations and customer demands. To achieve the necessary emission reductions, the Norwegian industry and maritime sector need access to clean hydrogen and ammonia.
HEGRA brings together Norway’s experts in ammonia, project development and energy markets. Provided that power is available at site and the required public co-funding is in place, the project could be realized already 5-7 years from now.
The Norwegian maritime industry is set to cut its emissions in half by 2030. Access to emission-free fuel will be key to reach this goal, according to HEGRA project partners.
The existing global infrastructure for ammonia will facilitate Norwegian green ammonia to become a global commodity immediately. With renewable energy in abundance, Norway seems to be in a good position to capture a large share of the emerging global green hydrogen and ammonia value chain.
A report published in 2020 by The Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise found that the hydrogen industry can become a significant Norwegian export industry, with an estimated turnover of NOK 10 billion in 2030 and NOK 70 billion in 2050.?
