Recently, Belgium released the planning of an offshore wind power hydrogen production project called "Hyport Oostende", which is expected to become the world's first commercial offshore wind power hydrogen production project
according to its schedule.
The project is jointly developed by offshore giant DEME, investment agency PMV and the Belgian port of Ostend, and is implemented
in the port of Ostend.
The project will be divided into two phases, the first phase will develop a 50MW demonstration project, and the second phase will develop a larger commercial project and be completed
by 2025.
It is reported that by the end of 2020, about 400 offshore wind turbines will be put into operation in Belgium, with a total installed capacity of 2.
26GW.
According to Belgium's new sea area plan, another 1.
75GW will be added, bringing the total to 4GW, which can supply about half of the country's electricity
.
However, due to the instability of wind power, when the load on the grid is light, there is often excess power generation, so using this part of the electricity for electrolysis of water, generating hydrogen and storing it is not only convenient to use when needed, but also convenient for transportation
.
According to statistics, the global annual hydrogen production is 69 million tons, mainly used in petrochemical, metallurgy, aviation and other fields
.
According to the International Energy Agency, 99% of hydrogen is made from fossil fuels and emits 830 million tons of carbon dioxide per year, more than the United Kingdom, France and Belgium combined
.
Since hydrogen made from green energy does not produce carbon emissions, it is also called "green hydrogen"
.
Hydrogen can also replace some fossil energy used in industrial production, which can further reduce carbon emissions
.
However, due to cost issues, the development of green hydrogen is greatly constrained
.
It is reported that at present, the average cost of hydrogen production from fossil energy is 1.
5 US dollars / kg, while the cost of green hydrogen is 5-10 times
that of it.
It is estimated that with technological development and industrial upgrading, the cost of green hydrogen can be competitive with the former by 2030, and policy support is needed before that
