石油设备网讯 据普氏能源资讯5月30日悉尼报道，澳大利亚昆士兰州政府正在投资数百万美元发展一项氢产业，称该产业可能与液化天然气的成功相匹敌，并将该地区置于该行业的前列。
出口潜力巨大。印度国家发展、制造、基础设施和规划部长卡梅伦·迪克(Cameron Dick)周四表示，全球对氢的需求正在增加，预计到2022年全球氢市场规模将达到1550亿美元，其中大部分将由亚太市场推动。他说，日本已经是澳大利亚液化天然气(LNG)的主要出口目的地，该国正在成为未来氢燃料的主要消费国，其汽车工业已经开发了几款氢动力汽车。
政府计划投资1900万澳元(1316万美元)用于昆士兰州氢气产业战略2019-2024，重点支持创新、促进私人投资、有效的政策框架、提高社区意识和协助技能发展。
格拉德斯通格伦布奇的成员说，该州的愿景是到2030年成为可再生氢生产的前沿。
他说:“我们的国家拥有支持可再生氢产业所需的一切先决条件，包括太阳能、风能和生物质能，一个亲商的政府，现有的天然气管道基础设施，以及一流的出口设施。”

Australia's Queensland state to invest $13 million in developing hydrogen industry
Australia's Queensland state government is investing millions of dollars into developing a hydrogen industry which it says could rival the success of LNG and see the region at the forefront of the sector.
The export potential is significant. Global demand for hydrogen is increasing, with the market expected to reach $155 billion by 2022, and much of that will be driven by Asia-Pacific markets, the minister for state development, manufacturing, infrastructure and planning Cameron Dick said Thursday. Japan, which is already a key export destination for Australian LNG -- is emerging as a major future user of hydrogen, with its vehicle industry having developed several hydrogen-powered cars, he said.
The government aims to spend A$19 million [$13.16 million] on its Queensland Hydrogen Industry Strategy 2019-2024, which will focus on supporting innovation, facilitating private investment, effective policy frameworks, building community awareness and assisting skills development.
Member for Gladstone Glenn Butch said the state's vision is to be at the forefront of renewable hydrogen production by 2030.
"Our state has all the pre-requisites needed to support a renewable hydrogen industry, including solar, wind and biomass, a pro-business government, existing gas pipeline infrastructure, and first-class export facilities," he said.
