據鉆機地帶8月6日消息,工程服務公司麥克德莫特(McDermott)宣布已加入一個由公共、私人和學術合作伙伴組成的聯營團體,就美國能源部(DOE)項目——H2@Scale在德克薩斯州和其他地區的示范框架進行合作。
該公司表示,將為該團體綜合能源基礎設施能力增加額外的專業知識,并指出,這突出了麥克德莫特致力于推動氫作為低碳和可負擔能源的關鍵驅動力。麥克德莫特強調,該項目旨在表明,可再生氫可以作為一種具有成本效益的燃料,適用于多種終端應用,并與使用氫作為清潔、可靠固定電源的大型基礎負載消費者相結合。
麥克德莫特執行副總裁兼首席運營官Samik Mukherjee在公司聲明中稱:“麥克德莫特認識到,氫在未來的可持續能源中扮演著非常重要的角色。我們相信,我們的人才和專業知識,與我們的伙伴合作,將加速發展勢頭并開啟將愿望變為現實的進展。”
據美國能源部網站稱,H2@Scale 是能源部的一項倡議,旨在將利益相關者聚集在一起,推進可負擔的氫氣生產、運輸、儲存和利用,以實現跨多個行業的脫碳和創收機會,該網站指出,目前美國每年生產的氫氣量達1000萬噸。
項目伙伴關系目前專注于兩個獨立的計劃——一個在德克薩斯大學奧斯汀分校,另一個在休斯頓港。首先,該大學將主辦一個集商業氫生產、分配、儲存和使用于一體的項目。項目合作伙伴將通過電解太陽能和風能現場生產零碳氫,并從德克薩斯州的一個垃圾填埋場改造可再生天然氣。氫將為一個固定燃料電池提供動力,為德克薩斯高級計算中心提供動力,并為一個氫站提供零排放的燃料,以為燃料電池電動汽車車隊供電。
在休斯頓港,項目團隊將進行一項可行性研究,以擴大氫的生產和使用。該團隊將評估可用資源、潛在氫用戶和交付基礎設施。

McDermott Joins Texas Project
McDermott International, Ltd has announced that it has joined a consortium of public, private and academic partners collaborating on the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) project - Demonstration and framework for H2@Scale in Texas and Beyond.
The company said its participation will add additional expertise to the team’s capabilities in the delivery of integrated energy infrastructure and noted that it underscores McDermott’s commitment in advancing hydrogen as a key driver to low carbon and affordable energy. The project intends to show that renewable hydrogen can be a cost-effective fuel for multiple end-use applications when coupled with large, baseload consumers that use hydrogen for clean, reliable stationary power, McDermott highlighted.
“McDermott recognizes that hydrogen has a very prominent role to play in the future of sustainable energy,” Samik Mukherjee, McDermott’s executive vice president and chief operating officer, said in a company statement. “We are confident that the talent and expertise of our people, in collaboration with our partners, will accelerate momentum and unlock the meaningful progress necessary to turn aspiration into reality,” he added.
H2@Scale is a DOE initiative that brings together stakeholders to advance affordable hydrogen production, transport, storage and utilization to enable decarbonization and revenue opportunities across multiple sectors, according to the DOE’s website, which notes that ten million metric tons of hydrogen are currently produced in the U.S. every year.
The project partnership is currently focusing on two separate initiatives - one at the University of Texas at Austin and another at the Port of Houston. The first will see the university host an integration of commercial hydrogen production, distribution, storage and use. Project partners will generate zero carbon hydrogen onsite via electrolysis with solar and wind power and reformation of renewable natural gas from a Texas landfill. The hydrogen will power a stationary fuel cell to provide power for the Texas Advanced Computing Center and supply a hydrogen station with zero-emission fuel to fill a fleet of fuel cell electric vehicles.
At the Port of Houston, the project team will conduct a feasibility study to scale up hydrogen production and use. The team will assess available resources, prospective hydrogen users and delivery infrastructure.
