據(jù)世界天然氣6月15日消息稱，日本航運(yùn)公司三井商船株式會(huì)社(MOL)的子公司MOL清潔能源公司(MCE)對(duì)阿森松清潔能源公司(ACE)進(jìn)行了戰(zhàn)略投資，這是一個(gè)擬議中的全球規(guī)模的清潔氨氫生產(chǎn)和出口設(shè)施，位于路易斯安那州阿森松教區(qū)。

MCE的戰(zhàn)略投資于6月15日宣布，通過(guò)該公司成為該項(xiàng)目的合資股東。該項(xiàng)目的其他股東包括Clean Hydrogen Works、Hafnia和Denbury Carbon Solutions。

通過(guò)加入ACE項(xiàng)目，MOL將幫助開發(fā)安全、可持續(xù)和高效的解決方案，將清潔的氨氫輸送到全球新興的清潔能源市場(chǎng)。

MCE首席執(zhí)行官Tomoaki Ichida表示：“清潔的氨氫對(duì)全球能源市場(chǎng)的脫碳至關(guān)重要。通過(guò)這個(gè)創(chuàng)新項(xiàng)目，MOL不僅為我們的未來(lái)增長(zhǎng)提供投資，而且還有助于促進(jìn)我們的車隊(duì)和客戶群中清潔氨氫的開發(fā)和采用。”

ACE預(yù)計(jì)每年將生產(chǎn)720萬(wàn)噸清潔氨氫，并幫助發(fā)電、船用燃料、重型運(yùn)輸、鋼鐵加工和工業(yè)應(yīng)用等難以減排的行業(yè)脫碳。

目前的預(yù)期生產(chǎn)目標(biāo)是到2027年底，清潔能源將于2028年開始外輸。

此外，該項(xiàng)目的目標(biāo)是捕獲其過(guò)程中高達(dá)98%的二氧化碳排放，并提供一種具有成本效益、可擴(kuò)展的途徑來(lái)提供無(wú)碳能源。

ACE預(yù)計(jì)投資75億美元，預(yù)計(jì)在五年內(nèi)創(chuàng)造約1500個(gè)建筑工作崗位和350個(gè)永久全職工作崗位。

MOL invests in clean hydrogen-ammonia production project in Louisiana

MOL Clean Energy (MCE), a subsidiary of Japanese shipping company Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL), has made a strategic investment in Ascension Clean Energy (ACE), a proposed global-scale clean hydrogen-ammonia production and export facility in Ascension Parish, Louisiana.

The strategic investment by MCE was announced on 15 June, through which the company became a joint venture shareholder in the project. Other shareholders in this project are Clean Hydrogen Works, Hafnia and Denbury Carbon Solutions.

By joining the ACE project, MOL will help develop safe, sustainable, and efficient solutions to ship clean hydrogen-ammonia to emerging clean energy markets across the globe.

“Clean hydrogen-ammonia is critical to decarbonizing the global energy market,” said Tomoaki Ichida, CEO of MCE. “With this innovative project, MOL is investing not only for our future growth but also helping promote the development and adoption of clean hydrogen-ammonia within our fleet and customer base.”

ACE is expected to produce 7.2 million metric tons of clean hydrogen-ammonia annually and help decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors including power generation, bunker fuel, heavy transportation, steel processing and industrial applications.

Anticipated production is currently targeted by late 2027 with the shipment of the clean energy commencing in 2028.

Furthermore, the aim of the project is to capture up to 98% of CO2 emissions from its processes and provide a cost-effective, scalable pathway to supply carbon-free energy.

With a projected investment of $7.5 billion, ACE is expected to generate approximately 1,500 construction jobs over five years and 350 permanent, full-time jobs.
