加拿大確認(rèn)正在制定國家氫戰(zhàn)略

據(jù)石油新聞2020年6月8日休斯頓報(bào)道，加拿大自然資源部（NRC）6月7日證實(shí)，加拿大時(shí)下正在和其他國家一起制定一項(xiàng)國家氫戰(zhàn)略。

NRC表示：“我們正在尋求在短中長期內(nèi)為清潔氫生產(chǎn)和優(yōu)化整個(gè)經(jīng)濟(jì)的終端使用確定機(jī)會，同時(shí)也為加拿大的清潔氫、氫和燃料電池技術(shù)和服務(wù)確定出口市場潛力。

NRC說，加拿大自然資源部時(shí)下正在與各級政府以及學(xué)術(shù)界和私營部門合作，為制定這個(gè)國家氫戰(zhàn)略提供信息。

加拿大的這個(gè)國家氫戰(zhàn)略預(yù)計(jì)將在未來6到8周內(nèi)發(fā)布。

這在一定程度上是因?yàn)榧幽么笤?017年進(jìn)行的一次公民調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)，低碳未來對加拿大人很重要。這導(dǎo)致了加拿大發(fā)電能源委員會隨后發(fā)表的一份報(bào)告，確定氫“作為一種燃料來源以及在能源存儲應(yīng)用中的潛在作用尤其重要”。

NRC表示：“全球?qū)錃獾男枨笳谠鲩L，加拿大處于有利地位，將從國際上對氫氣和燃料電池日益增長的需求中獲益?！?/span>

作為減少二氧化碳排放以實(shí)現(xiàn)氣候目標(biāo)的一種手段，全球許多國家都在制定國家氫戰(zhàn)略。氫預(yù)計(jì)將在運(yùn)輸系統(tǒng)脫碳方面發(fā)揮重要作用，后者是二氧化碳排放的主要部門之一，由于其高度分布的性質(zhì)，運(yùn)輸系統(tǒng)將是改革最具挑戰(zhàn)性的部門之一。

氫氣還可以在發(fā)電以及鋼鐵和水泥等材料生產(chǎn)中替代化石燃料。

荷蘭、挪威、葡萄牙、日本、韓國、澳大利亞和新西蘭等國已經(jīng)發(fā)布了國家氫戰(zhàn)略。

歐洲委員會定于6月24日提交一份制定歐盟氫戰(zhàn)略計(jì)劃。

Canada confirms it is developing national hydrogen strategy

Natural Resources Canada confirmed June 7 it is developing a national hydrogen strategy, joining a number of countries in doing so.

"We are seeking to identify opportunities for clean hydrogen production and optimal end-use across the economy, in the short, medium, and longer term, while also identifying export market growth potential for Canadian clean hydrogen, as well as hydrogen and fuel cell technologies and services," said the agency in a statement.

The federal agency said it is working with governments at all levels as well as academia and the private sector to inform the strategy's development.

The strategy is expected to be released in the next six to eight weeks.

It is partly the result of a 2017 citizen survey that identified a low-carbon future as important to Canadians. This led to a subsequent report produced by the Generation Energy Council identifying hydrogen "as being particularly important given its potential role both as a fuel source and in energy storage applications."

"Momentum on hydrogen is growing globally and Canada is well-positioned to benefit from growing international demand for hydrogen and fuel cells," said the agency.

Many governments are developing hydrogen strategies as a means of cutting CO2 emissions to meet climate goals. Hydrogen is expected to play a significant role in decarbonizing transportation, one of the leading sectors for CO2 emissions and among the most challenging for reform given its highly distributed nature.

Hydrogen can also replace fossil fuels in power generation as well as materials production, such as steel and cement.

Countries that have released a national hydrogen strategy include the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand.

The European Commission is slated to present a hydrogen strategy for the EU on June 24.
