据ICIS-MRC网站1月11日莫斯科报道，据《化学周刊》报道，意大利Enel集团的可再生能源子公司Enel Green Power (EGP)和意大利罗马的Maire Tecnimont已同意在美国共同开发和建设一个绿色制氢工厂。
具体地点尚未公布。
EGP和Maire Tecnimont的子公司NextChem已经就该项目签署了一份谅解备忘录，该项目将使用现有的EGP太阳能工厂的可再生能源，通过电解生产绿色氢。Enel表示，该项目预计将于2023年投入运营，并向生物炼油厂供应氢气。
NextChem是Maire Tecnimont公司致力于能源转型技术部署的业务，将作为该项目的技术和工程合作伙伴，以及全交钥匙工程、采购和建设(EPC)承包商。EGP表示，其将利用NextChem的氢技术和工程专业知识来拓展其在美国的绿色氢业务。
EGP首席执行官塞尔瓦托?伯纳贝(Salvatore Bernabei)表示，EGP正在全球多个地区，包括欧洲和美洲，“积极寻找绿色氢能源领域的机遇”。该公司表示，它正在评估在美国开发管道中部署电解槽的机会，重点是在其现有业务存在的州，如德克萨斯州、犹他州和北达科他州。其已经在意大利、西班牙和智利开发绿色氢项目，计划到2030年将其产能提高到逾2吉瓦。

Enel, Maire Tecnimont to build green hydrogen plant in US
Enel Green Power (EGP), the renewable energy subsidiary of Italy’s Enel Group, and Maire Tecnimont (Rome, Italy) have agreed to work together A specific location has not been given.
EGP and NextChem, a subsidiary of Maire Tecnimont, have signed a memorandum of understanding for the project, which will produce green hydrogen via electrolysis using renewable energy from an existing EGP solar plant. The project is expected to be operational in 2023 and supply hydrogen to a biorefinery, Enel says.
NextChem, Maire Tecnimont’s business dedicated to the deployment of technologies for the energy transition, will act as a technology and engineering partner, and the full turnkey engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor for the project. EGP says it will leverage NextChem’s hydrogen technology and engineering expertise to grow its green hydrogen business in the US.
EGP is “actively scouting for opportunities” in the green hydrogen sector in several parts of the world, both in Europe and in the Americas, says Salvatore Bernabei, EGP’s CEO. The company says it is evaluating opportunities to colocate electrolyzers across its development pipeline in the US, focused on states where it has an existing operational presence, such as Texas, Utah, and North Dakota. It is already developing green hydrogen projects in Italy, Spain, and Chile, with plans to grow its capacity to over 2 gigawatts by 2030, it says.
