Kufikela ku-120GW wezinto ezintsha ezivuselelekayo ezidingekayo ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nezidingo ze-hydrogen eluhlaza ze-EU zika-2030

Ukugcwalisa isu elisha le-hydrogen eluhlaza le-European Union kungadinga okungaphezu kuka-120GW womoya owengeziwe kanye nelanga ukuze kusetshenziswe ama-electrolys amandla, kusho isu le-bloc lesidingo se-hydrogen.

I-EU namuhla ishicilele isu layo le-hydrogen ebelilindelwe ngabomvu, ihlinzeka ngomhlahlandlela wenqubekelaphambili ye-bloc ekusunguleni umnotho we-hydrogen ohlanzekile, oncintisana nezindleko njengoba ibukeka iwuqeda ngokuphelele umnotho wayo.

Namuhla i-hydrogen imelela “ingxenyana encane” yengxube yamandla embulunga yonke neye-EU futhi, nangaleso sikhathi, ikhiqizwa kakhulu kusetshenziswa izinto zokubasa ezimbiwa phansi.Ngakho-ke, isu liyaphikisana, ukuze i-hydrogen ibambe iqhaza ekungathathi hlangothi kwesimo sezulu, ukukhiqizwa kwayo kufanele kungabi yi-carbonised ngokuphelele.Ukwengeza, ukuze lokhu kokubili kususwe i-carbonise ngokugcwele futhi kungabizi uma kuqhathaniswa nokukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen eqhutshwa uphethiloli, kudingeka indlela yesu.

Ngakho-ke i-EU iye yasungula lokho ekubiza ngokuthi ipulani elinamandla lokubeka i-hydrogen endleleni eya ekungathathi hlangothi kwekhabhoni okungabizi kakhulu.Lokhu, nokho, kuzodinga inqwaba ebucayi ekutshalweni kwezimali, uhlaka lokulawula olusekelayo, izimakethe ezintsha ezihamba phambili, i-R&D esimeme ibe ukuthuthukiswa kobuchwepheshe kanye nemakethe enkulu yengqalasizinda “i-EU kuphela kanye nemakethe eyodwa”, umbhalo wamasu we-EU. izimangalo.

Naphezu kwezindleko eziphakeme zamanje zokukhiqiza i-hydrogen ngokusebenzisa i-electrolysis eholwa kabusha, i-EU isungule i-hydrogen evuselelekayo njengokuhamba phambili kwayo, namandla okwenziwa kwe-electrolysis aqhamuke ikakhulukazi emoyeni naselanga.I-EU ihlose ukuthi i-hydrogen evuselelekayo “ngokuqhubekayo… isetshenziswe ngezinga elikhulu eduze nokukhishwa kwamandla amasha avuselelekayo” ku-2050, okusizwa ukwehla okuqhubekayo kwezindleko zobuchwepheshe.

Ngenxa yalokho, okungenani i-6GW yama-electrolysers e-hydrogen avuselelekayo kuhloswe ukuthi afakwe ngo-2024, akwazi ukukhiqiza amathani ayizigidi ezingu-1 e-hydrogen evuselelekayo.Lokhu kuzobona ukufakwa kwama-electrolyser eduze kwezikhungo zokufuna izinto ezikhona, njengezakhiwo zamakhemikhali nezindawo zokuhluza ezinkulu, futhi zinikwa amandla amajeneretha asendaweni avuselelekayo.

Kulesi sigaba i-hydrogen ehlanzekile ngeke ibe nokuncintisana nezindleko.Ngenxa yalokho i-EU ishintsha ukugxila kwenqubomgomo yayo ekukhuthazeni ukuhlinzekwa kwezidingo kanye nesidingo ngokusebenzisa “imithetho yosizo yoMbuso efanele”, nokho imininingwane eqondile kulokhu ayikacaciswa.

Nokho, kusukela ngo-2025 kuya ku-2030, i-hydrogen izodinga ukuba “ingxenye yangaphakathi” yohlelo lwamandla lwaseYurophu, okungenani ibe ngu-40GW wama-electrolyser e-hydrogen avuselelekayo adingeka ngo-2030. Leli zinga lokusatshalaliswa lizobona i-hydrogen evuselelekayo ikwazi ukuncintisana nezinye izinhlobo.

Ukuze inike amandla leli zinga le-electrolysis, i-EU izodinga ukukhuphula futhi ixhume ngokuqondile endaweni ethile phakathi kuka-80 - 120GW womthamo welanga nomoya, obiza endaweni ethile ye-€220 - 340 billion, i-EU ilinganisela.

Umbhalo ogcwele we-EU Hydrogen Strategy ungafundwa lapha.

Ukusabela kuleli qhinga bekunamandla, abaningi begqamisa indima edlalwa yilanga nokunye okuzokwenziwa kabusha ekugudluzeni i-hydrogen iye ku-decarbonisation.

U-Antony Skinner, uzakwethu wezamandla enkampanini yabameli ezinze e-UK i-Ashurst, uthe: “Ukushicilelwa kwaleli qhinga kuyintuthuko ebalulekile futhi okubaluleke kakhulu ukuthi uyaqaphela ukuthi ezigabeni zokuqala zokusatshalaliswa kwe-hydrogen ama-quota akhethekile kanye nezinye izikhuthazo zingase. kudingeka ukuheha izinga elibalulekile lokutshalwa kwezimali nokuzibophezela okudingekayo ukuze kuvunyelwe i-hydrogen ehlanzekile ukuthi isuse ezinye izinto zokubasa. "

Isu liphinde lashicilelwa phakathi kwenqwaba yezindaba zephrojekthi exhumanisa amaphrojekthi okuvuselelwa kwesikali se-gigawatt nokukhiqizwa kwe-hydrogen.Ngasekuqaleni kwaleli sonto umthuthukisi wezinto ezivuselelekayo zaseSaudi Arabia i-ACWA Power uqokwe njengozakwethu obalulekile kuphrojekthi okuhloswe ngayo ukusebenzisana ne-4GW yelanga nezinye izinto ezivuselelekayo nezitshalo ezahlukahlukene zegesi eluhlaza, ngenkathi kuphinde kwaba nomnyakazo e-Australia, lapho okuhlongozwayo okuhlaza okungu-3.6GW. indawo ye-hydrogen ihlose ukusebenzisa ilanga nesitoreji njengomthombo wayo oyinhloko wamandla.
