法国液空和乐天化学在韩国推进氢气经济

据气体世界网2022年5月3 日报道，法国液化空气集团旗下韩国公司日前与韩国乐天化学公司英国有限公司成立一家合资企业，双方将通过投资大山和蔚山的大型氢气加注中心，推进和扩大韩国的氢气经济。

选择这两个具有战略位置的地点是为了满足韩国几个人口稠密地区对氢气的需求，这些地点将成为空调中心和燃料加注站的所在地，法国液化空气集团将利用其在氢气供应和使用链上的专业知识来帮助韩国推进氢气经济。

氢气将由乐天化学公司从其位于韩国主要工业盆地大山和蔚山的非天然气来源供应。

法国液化空气集团亚太执行委员会成员Abrial日前在评论这项协议时重申了该公司在氢气方面的立场。他说：“法国液化空气集团致力于在从生产到储存的整个氢气链上作出积极贡献和投资，以及最终用途的分发和应用开发。”

“根据其可持续发展目标，包括到2050年前达到碳中和，法国液化空气集团的雄心是积极为未来低碳社会作出贡献。”

这个项目是韩国“氢气经济路线图”的一部分，这份氢气经济路线图支持韩国对氢气流动性日益增长的需求——到2025年前，韩国每天能够生产100吨氢气。

Air Liquide, Lotte Chemical to advance hydrogen economy in Korea

A joint venture between Air Liquide and UK-based chemical company Lotte Chemical will see the two partners scaling up South Korea’s hydrogen economy through investment into large scale hydrogen filling centres in the cities of Daesan and Ulsan.

Strategically placed to fulfil demand in several densely populated regions of the country, the sites will host both the conditioning hubs and refuelling stations with Air Liquide harnessing its expertise across the hydrogen supply and use chain. 

Hydrogen will be supplied by Lotte from its own off-gas sources in South Korea’s main industrial basins of Daesan and Ulsan. 

Commenting on the agreement, François Abrial, Member of the Air Liquide Groups’ Executive Committee supervising Asia Pacific (APAC), reiterated the company’s stance on hydrogen, saying, “Air Liquide is committed to actively contribute and invest across the entire hydrogen chain, from production to storage, as well as distribution and application developments for end usages.” 

“In line with its sustainability objectives, which include reaching carbon neutrality by 2050, Air Liquide’s ambition is to contribute actively to the emergence of a low-carbon society.” 

The project is part of the country’s ‘Hydrogen Economy Roadmap’, which supports South Korea’s growing demand for hydrogen mobility – a sector that could see the country produce 100 tonnes of hydrogen per day by 2025.
