據世界天然氣4月28日消息稱，匈牙利石油和天然氣公司MOL集團與綠色氫氣供應商Plug Power合作，在匈牙利建造歐洲最大的綠色氫氣生產設施之一。

該設施位于MOL在匈牙利Százhalombatta的多瑙河煉油廠。綠色氫氣是為了減少多瑙河煉油廠的碳足跡。從長遠來看，它還將實現零排放的交通。

該設施將使用來自Plug Power的10兆瓦電解裝置。MOL的工廠造價2200萬歐元(2315萬美元)，每年可生產約1600噸綠色氫。因此，通過取代目前使用的以天然氣為基礎的生產過程，將去除多達25000噸的二氧化碳。

這項投資支持MOL的碳中和目標，并將促進該地區的能源獨立。

綠色氫氣將于2023年投入使用。然后，MOL將在多瑙河煉油廠使用這些綠色氫氣，作為其氫氣系統的燃料。它將被整合到MOL燃料的分子中，降低生產技術和最終產品的碳排放量。

綠色氫的生產不會產生任何溫室氣體排放。Plug設備使用可再生能源的電力，通過一種稱為電解的過程將水分解為氧氣和氫氣。這個過程不會產生任何危害環境的副產品。通過生產1噸氫氣，該設備還可以生產8至9噸純氧，在此過程中節省了近1萬噸天然氣的消耗。

MOL Group and Plug team up for green hydrogen production facility in Hungary

Hungarian oil and gas company MOL Group has teamed up with green H2 provider Plug Power to build one of Europe’s largest-capacity green hydrogen production facilities in Hungary.

The facility is located at MOL’s Danube Refinery in Százhalombatta, Hungary. Green hydrogen is to reduce the carbon footprint of the Danube Refinery operation. In a longer term, it is to also enable emission-free mobility.

The facility will use a ten-megawatt (MW) electrolysis unit from Plug Power. MOL’s €22 million ($23.15 million) facility will be able to produce approximately 1,600 tonnes of green hydrogen per year. Therefore, it will be removing up to 25,000 tonnes of CO2 by displacing the currently used natural gas-based production process.

This investment supports MOL’s carbon neutrality goals and will contribute to energy independence for the region.

The green H2 will be operational in 2023. Then, MOL will use the green hydrogen in its Danube Refinery during fuel production of its own H2 system. It will be incorporated into the molecules of MOL fuels, lowering the carbon outputs from the production technology and the final product.

The production of green hydrogen does not generate any GHG emissions. The Plug equipment uses electricity from a renewable source to split water into oxygen and hydrogen gas by a process called electrolysis. This process does not produce any by-products that harm the environment. By producing one tonne of hydrogen, eight-to-nine tonnes of pure oxygen is also produced by the equipment, saving nearly 10,000 tonnes of natural gas consumption in the process.
