一个可能在美国的新项目.S. Gulf Coast could be the first link of an international supply chain of liquefied e-天然气, 帮助太阳2平台的合作伙伴和盟友创造一个更加安全的能源未来

海上的液化天然气运输船一个更安全、更清洁的能源未来可能随着最近的进展而出现 公告 由Sempra的子公司Sempra基础设施提供. Sempra基础设施 plans to evaluate a possible Gulf Coast project that would produce around 130,每年生产1000吨电子天然气.

The proposed project comes at a time when global leaders are calling for an increase in energy supply, 特别是来自北美,因为世界其他地区的供应正在减少. 多项研究也指出,对能源的需求只会 进一步增加 随着越来越多的经济体关注 使充电除去碳素.

该项目目前正在由一个由……组成的财团进行评估 Sempra基础设施东京煤气株式会社.大阪煤气株式会社.东宝煤气公司.有限公司. 和三菱公司-专注于支持日本的脱碳目标. 然而, it could also serve as the first link of an international supply chain of 碳-neutral liquified e-天然气 — helping to address global 能源挑战.

什么是电子天然气?

自然气, 也被称为e-甲烷, 碳中性合成天然气是否来自可再生能源 再循环的二氧化碳. 可再生氢和 是通过管道输送到甲烷化厂的吗, 它们用热量结合在一起, 压力和镍等催化剂. 一旦生产出来,从化学上讲,e-天然气与天然气没有什么区别 天然气 流经美国的资金.S. 今天的天然气管网. 换句话说,它可以放置在现有的天然气网络和系统中(例如.g., 管道, 存储, liquefaction 和 regasification) without building new infrastructure — making it a prime potential (lower e任务/碳 neutral) solution for fulfilling global energy dem和.

自然气 is likely to be considered 碳 neutral because it could be produced using 以可再生能源和再生碳为原料. The source of 碳 for e-天然气 production is en愿景ed to be captured from industrial emitters, hence no new 碳 e任务s would be created from the production of e-天然气.

为什么电子天然气很重要?

For this proposed Sempra基础设施 project — which could serve as a model for similar projects in the future — the e-天然气 would be used to help Japan reduce overall e任务s intensity, 帮助日本城市燃气公司实现了1%的替代目标 液化天然气 到2030年对电子天然气的需求. 日本经济产业省, 日本能源省, will soon be deliberating on whether to formally adopt this goal into Japan’s overall energy targets to have e-天然气 meet 90% of Japan’s 天然气 needs by 2050.
