Ma euro mabiliyoni awiri! BP ipanga gulu la haidrojeni lobiriwira lochepa ku Valencia, Spain

Bp yawulula mapulani omanga gulu la hydrogen lobiriwira, lotchedwa HyVal, mdera la Valencia lomwe lili ku fakitale yake yoyeretsera ku Castellion ku Spain. HyVal, mgwirizano wa boma ndi mabungwe achinsinsi, ikukonzekera kupangidwa m'magawo awiri. Ntchitoyi, yomwe imafuna ndalama zokwana €2 biliyoni, idzakhala ndi mphamvu zamagetsi zokwana 2GW pofika chaka cha 2030 popanga hydrogen yobiriwira ku fakitale yoyeretsera ku Castellon. HyVal idzapangidwa kuti ipange hydrogen yobiriwira, mafuta achilengedwe ndi mphamvu zongowonjezwdwanso kuti ithandize kuchepetsa mpweya wa carbon ku fakitale yake yoyeretsera ku Spain.

"Timaona Hyval ngati chinsinsi cha kusintha kwa Castellion komanso kuthandizira kuchepetsa mpweya woipa m'chigawo chonse cha Valencia," adatero Andres Guevara, purezidenti wa BP Energia Espana. Cholinga chathu ndi kupanga mphamvu zamagetsi zokwana 2GW pofika chaka cha 2030 kuti tipeze mpweya woipa wobiriwira kuti tithandize kuchepetsa mpweya woipa m'mabizinesi athu ndi makasitomala athu. Tikukonzekera kuchulukitsa katatu kupanga mafuta a biofuel m'malo athu oyeretsera kuti tithandize kukwaniritsa kufunikira kwakukulu kwa mafuta a carbon ochepa monga SAFs.

Gawo loyamba la pulojekiti ya HyVal likuphatikizapo kuyika chipangizo cha electrolysis cha mphamvu ya 200MW ku fakitale yoyeretsera mafuta ya Castellon, yomwe ikuyembekezeka kugwira ntchito mu 2027. Fakitaleyi ipanga matani okwana 31,200 a haidrojeni wobiriwira pachaka, poyamba imagwiritsidwa ntchito ngati chakudya cha fakitale yoyeretsera mafuta kuti ipange ma SAF. Idzagwiritsidwanso ntchito m'mafakitale ndi m'magalimoto akuluakulu monga njira ina m'malo mwa gasi wachilengedwe, kuchepetsa mpweya wa CO2 ndi matani opitilira 300,000 pachaka.

Gawo lachiwiri la HyVal likuphatikizapo kukulitsa chomera chamagetsi mpaka mphamvu yonse yoyikidwa ifike pa 2GW, yomwe idzamalizidwa pofika chaka cha 2030. Idzapereka haidrojeni wobiriwira kuti ikwaniritse zosowa za m'chigawo ndi dziko lonse ndikutumiza zotsalazo ku Europe kudzera mu Green Hydrogen H2Med Mediterranean Corridor. Carolina Mesa, wachiwiri kwa purezidenti wa BP Spain ndi New Markets hydrogen, adati kupanga haidrojeni wobiriwira kudzakhala sitepe ina yopita ku ufulu wodziyimira pawokha wa mphamvu ku Spain ndi Europe yonse.
