Ama-euro ayizigidigidi ezimbili! I-BP izokwakha iqoqo le-hydrogen eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka eValencia, eSpain

I-Bp iveze izinhlelo zokwakha iqembu le-hydrogen eluhlaza, elibizwa nge-HyVal, endaweni yaseValencia endaweni yayo yokucwenga i-Castellion eSpain. I-HyVal, ubudlelwano bomphakathi nezizimele, kuhlelwe ukuthi buthuthukiswe ngezigaba ezimbili. Lo msebenzi, odinga ukutshalwa kwezimali okufika ku-€2bn, uzoba namandla kagesi afinyelela ku-2GW ngo-2030 ukuze kukhiqizwe i-hydrogen eluhlaza endaweni yokucwenga i-Castellon. I-HyVal izoklanywa ukukhiqiza i-hydrogen eluhlaza, ama-biofuel kanye namandla avuselelekayo ukusiza ukususa i-carbon emisebenzini ye-bp endaweni yayo yokucwenga i-Spain.

"Sibona iHyval njengesihluthulelo sokuguqulwa kweCastellion kanye nokusekela ukususwa kwekhabhoni esifundeni sonke saseValencia," kusho u-Andres Guevara, umongameli we-BP Energia Espana. Sihlose ukuthuthukisa amandla kagesi afinyelela ku-2GW ngo-2030 ukuze kukhiqizwe i-hydrogen eluhlaza ukuze kusizwe ekususweni kwekhabhoni emisebenzini yethu kanye namakhasimende ethu. Sihlela ukuphindwe kathathu ukukhiqizwa kwe-biofuel ezindaweni zethu zokuhluza ukuze sisize ukuhlangabezana nesidingo esikhulayo samafutha anekhabhoni ephansi njenge-SAFs.

Isigaba sokuqala sephrojekthi ye-HyVal sihilela ukufakwa kweyunithi ye-electrolysis enamandla angu-200MW endaweni yokuhluza i-Castellon, okulindeleke ukuthi isebenze ngo-2027. Lesi sitshalo sizokhiqiza amathani afinyelela ku-31,200 e-hydrogen eluhlaza ngonyaka, ekuqaleni esetshenziswa njengesitokwe sokudla endaweni yokuhluza ukukhiqiza ama-SAF. Sizophinde sisetshenziswe kwezokuthutha zezimboni kanye nezokuthutha ezisindayo njengendlela ehlukile kunegesi yemvelo, sinciphise ukukhishwa kwe-CO2 ngamathani angaphezu kuka-300,000 ngonyaka.

Isigaba sesi-2 se-HyVal sihilela ukwandiswa kwesitshalo se-electrolytic kuze kube yilapho umthamo ofakiwe ufinyelela ku-2GW, ozoqedwa ngo-2030. Sizohlinzeka nge-hydrogen eluhlaza ukuze sihlangabezane nezidingo zesifunda nezesizwe futhi sithumele okusele eYurophu nge-Green Hydrogen H2Med Mediterranean Corridor. UCarolina Mesa, iphini likamongameli we-BP Spain kanye ne-hydrogen yaseNew Markets, uthe ukukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen eluhlaza kuzoba esinye isinyathelo sokuzimela kwamandla eSpain naseYurophu iyonke.
