據(jù)烴加工新聞5月23日消息稱，三菱電力美洲公司和德州Brine已簽署協(xié)議，開(kāi)發(fā)大規(guī)模的長(zhǎng)期氫儲(chǔ)存解決方案，以支持美國(guó)東部的脫碳努力。氫的長(zhǎng)期儲(chǔ)存是向零碳能源過(guò)渡的關(guān)鍵技術(shù)。

　　此次合作擴(kuò)大了三菱電力公司在北美戰(zhàn)略位置的鹽穴中安全、經(jīng)濟(jì)地儲(chǔ)存氫氣的能力。德州Brine及其附屬公司在紐約、弗吉尼亞、德克薩斯和路易斯安那州擁有鹽場(chǎng)，這將使其能夠進(jìn)入東北部、中大西洋和墨西哥灣沿岸的主要裝載中心。

　　鹽礦床是一種獨(dú)特的地質(zhì)特征，可以通過(guò)開(kāi)采溶洞來(lái)提供安全、可靠和經(jīng)濟(jì)的儲(chǔ)氣庫(kù)。氫氣在美國(guó)墨西哥灣沿岸的鹽洞中儲(chǔ)存了數(shù)十年。在其他地區(qū)擴(kuò)大鹽穴用于氫能源儲(chǔ)存的使用，為在美國(guó)各地建立清潔能源基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施提供了一個(gè)重要機(jī)會(huì)，使電力、交通和制造業(yè)等以凈零碳排放為目標(biāo)的行業(yè)受益。

　　德州Brine的合作通過(guò)在靠近項(xiàng)目的地方設(shè)置大規(guī)模的氫存儲(chǔ)，使其能夠獲得經(jīng)濟(jì)的公用事業(yè)規(guī)模的可再生能源存儲(chǔ)，從而補(bǔ)充了三菱電力不斷增長(zhǎng)的氫準(zhǔn)備燃?xì)鉁u輪機(jī)組合。

　　三菱電力與德州Brine的合作還提供了其他共生利益。鹽水是鹽和水的混合物，在鹽層的溶液開(kāi)采過(guò)程中產(chǎn)生。然后它可以被用作化學(xué)工業(yè)的關(guān)鍵原料，或者它可以被脫水生產(chǎn)鹽，用于食品、除冰、農(nóng)業(yè)、工業(yè)和水軟化市場(chǎng)。溶液開(kāi)采過(guò)程的副產(chǎn)品是一個(gè)地下儲(chǔ)存庫(kù)，可以用來(lái)儲(chǔ)存液體或氣態(tài)商品，如氫。

　　Mitsubishi Power and Texas Brine join forces for large-scale hydrogen storage

　　Mitsubishi Power Americas Inc., and Texas Brine Co. LLC have signed an agreement to develop large-scale long-duration hydrogen storage solutions to support decarbonisation efforts across the eastern US. Long-duration hydrogen storage is a key enabling technology for the transition to a net zero carbon energy future.

　　This collaboration expands Mitsubishi Power’s capability to store hydrogen safely and cost effectively in salt caverns in strategic locations across North America. Brine producer Texas Brine and its affiliates have salt positions in New York, Virginia, Texas and Louisiana that will enable access to major load centres in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and the Gulf Coast.

　　Salt deposits are unique geological features into which caverns can be solution mined to provide safe, reliable and economical bulk gas storage. Hydrogen has been stored in salt caverns for decades in the US Gulf Coast. Expanding the use of salt caverns for hydrogen energy storage in other regions offers a significant opportunity to create an infrastructure for clean energy resources throughout the US to benefit industries such as power, transportation and manufacturing that are targeting net zero carbon emissions.

　　The Texas Brine collaboration complements Mitsubishi Power’s growing portfolio of hydrogen-ready gas turbines by positioning large-scale hydrogen storage in close proximity to projects, enabling access to economical utility-scale renewable energy storage.

　　Mitsubishi Power’s collaboration with Texas Brine provides other symbiotic benefits. Brine, a mixture of salt and water, is produced during the solution mining of salt formations. It can then be used as a critical feedstock for the chemical industry, or it can be dehydrated to produce salt for food, deicing, agricultural, industrial, and water softening markets. The coproduct of the solution mining process is an underground repository that can be used to store liquid or gaseous commodities, such as hydrogen.
