據俄羅斯油氣網7月19日消息稱，印度石油公司（IOC）將在馬圖拉煉油廠建造印度第一座"綠色氫氣工廠"，旨在為未來滿足對石油和清潔能源不斷增長的需求做準備。

　　印度石油公司（IOC）首席執行官什里坎特·馬達夫·維迪亞說：

　　IOC制定了一條戰略增長道路，旨在在未來10年內繼續專注于其核心煉油和燃料營銷業務，同時在石化、氫氣和電力交通領域取得更大的發展

　　該公司不會在其未來的煉油廠和石化擴建項目中設立自營發電廠，而是使用太陽能等可再生能源生產的250兆瓦電力

　　我們在拉賈斯坦邦有一個風力發電項目

　　我們打算把這些電力轉到我們的馬圖拉精煉廠，用這些電力通過電解生產絕對綠色的氫

　　維迪亞說，IOC正在推進碳捕獲、利用和儲存技術的研究，在這方面，公司正在尋求全球合作，以實現巴黎氣候目標。

　　IOC正計劃試點建立幾個氫氣生產單位。

　　這包括在古吉拉特邦煉油廠的一個項目，該項目為氫燃料電池巴士生產99.9%的有限純度的氫。

　　各機構預測，到2040年，印度的燃料需求將從目前的2.5億噸攀升至4 - 4.5億噸。

　　India′s IOC to build India's 1st green hydrogen plant at at its Mathura refinery

　　India's largest oil firm IOC will build the nation's 1st 'green hydrogen plant at Mathura refinery, as it aims to prepare for a future catering to the growing demand for both oil and cleaner forms of energy.

　　CEO of the Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) Shrikant Madhav Vaidya said:

　　IOC has drawn a strategic growth path that aims to maintain focus on its core refining and fuel marketing businesses while making bigger inroads into petrochemicals, hydrogen and electric mobility over the next 10 years

　　The company will not set captive power plants at all its future refinery and petrochemical expansion projects and instead use the 250 MW of electricity it produces from renewable sources like solar power

　　We have a wind power project in Rajasthan

　　We intend to wheel that power to our Mathura refinery and use that electricity to produce absolutely green hydrogen through electrolysis

　　Vaidya said IOC was pushing ahead with research on carbon capture, utilisation and storage technologies - space where it is seeking global collaboration to meet its Paris climate goals.

　　IOC is planning to set up several hydrogen production units on a pilot basis.

　　This includes a project at Gujarat refinery to produce finite purity hydrogen of 99.9% for hydrogen fuel cell buses.

　　Forecasts by various agencies seeIndia′s fuel demand climbing to 400-450 million tonnes by 2040 as against 250 million tonnes now.
