据油气新闻1月18日消息称，澳大利亚铁矿石开采商 Fortescue metals Group FMG.AX 周一表示，它打算签署一项长期协议，向德国化学品制造商科思创供应“绿色氢”及其衍生物。
Fortescue Future Industries (FFI)在其网站上表示，一旦协议正式达成，该公司每年将提供相当于10万吨的绿色氢气。
FFI 首席执行官 Julie Shuttleworth 说：“这次合作强化了绿色氢是一种实用的、可实施的解决方案，适用于一系列难以脱碳的行业。”
根据该协议，从2024年起，绿色氢——一种清洁燃烧的燃料，利用可再生能源来电解水——将有可能供应给亚洲、北美和欧洲的科思创。
Fortescue的目标是到2030年实现碳中和。过去一年，该公司通过FFI签署了一系列项目，以突显其从一家纯铁矿石生产商向一家绿色能源公司转型的努力。
FFI 预计本财政年度将花费 4 亿至 6 亿美元来开发绿色火车、卡车和航运，以及脱碳技术。
该公司还预计到2030年将其绿色氢产量扩大到每年1500万吨。

Australia’s Fortescue set to supply green hydrogen to Germany’s Covestro
Australian iron ore miner Fortescue metals Group FMG.AX said on Monday it intends to sign a long-term deal to supply German chemicals maker Covestro AG 1COV.DE with “green hydrogen” and its derivatives.
Fortescue Future Industries (FFI) will supply the equivalent of up to 100,000 tonnes of green hydrogen per year once the deal is formalised, it said on its website.
“This collaboration reinforces that green hydrogen is a practical, implementable solution for a range of difficult-to-decarbonise industries,” FFI Chief Executive Officer Julie Shuttleworth said.
Under the deal, green hydrogen – a clean-burning fuel made by using energy from renewable sources to electrolyse water – will potentially be supplied to Covestro in Asia, North America and Europe from 2024 onwards.
Fortescue, which aims to become carbon-neutral by 2030, has signed a string of projects through FFI over the past year to underline its push to transition from a pure-play iron ore producer to a green energy firm.
FFI expects to spend between $400 million and $600 million this financial year to develop green trains, trucks and shipping, as welll as decarbonisation technologies.
It also expects to expand its green hydrogen production to 15 million tonnes per year by 2030.
