據9月9日Rigzone消息：Xodus集團周二宣布，Infinite Blue Energy(IBE)已選擇Xodus為澳大利亞第一家大型100％綠色氫工廠進行第一階段的初始工作。

這項耗資3億美元的阿羅史密斯氫氣項目于今年早些時候獲得投資，該項目位于澳大利亞珀斯以北約200英里處，預計每天利用太陽能和風能生產25噸氫氣。據估計將于2022年開始生產。

Xodus表示，其珀斯團隊將利用其經驗提供初步的環境影響評估和環境影響識別，以及特殊的環境支持，包括利益相關者咨詢。該公司指出，它還將提供地理信息系統支持。

Xodus首席環境顧問娜奧米·科爾普稱：“ IBE集團走在澳大利亞綠色能源的前沿，在之前的項目上與高級團隊有過合作，我們很高興能以我們的能源經驗和專業知識再次支持他們。”此類項目可以幫助澳大利亞成為零排放氫燃料生產和供應方面的全球領導者。

根據Xodus代表的說法，澳大利亞正在經歷一個“相當迅速”的能源轉型。這個國家的可再生能源發電記錄經常被打破。

Xodus是Subsea 7的全資子公司，自稱是全球領先的能源咨詢公司。IBE集團將自己描述為一家先進的可再生能源公司，在為國內外市場提供零排放解決方案方面擁有豐富的經驗。

Xodus Bags Work for $300MM Green Hydrogen Plant

Xodus Group announced Tuesday that it has been selected by Infinite Blue Energy (IBE) Group to carry out initial phase one work for Australia’s first large-scale 100 percent green hydrogen plant.

The $300 million Arrowsmith Hydrogen Project, which secured investment earlier this year, is located around 200 miles north of Perth, Australia, and is projected to produce 25 tons of hydrogen per day using solar and wind energy. The plant will commence production in 2022, according to IBE Group’s website.

Xodus said its Perth team will use its experience to deliver a preliminary environmental impact assessment (EIA) and environmental impact identification (ENVID), as well as ad hoc environmental support, including stakeholder consultation. The company noted that it will also offer GIS support and manage permits and the flora and fauna surveys for the proposed site.

“IBE Group is at the forefront of green energy in Australia and having worked with the senior team on previous projects, we are excited to be supporting them again with our energy experience and expertise,” Naomi Kerp, the principal environmental consultant at Xodus, said in a company statement.

“Projects like this can help establish Australia as a global leader in the production and supply of zero-emissions hydrogen fuel so it’s fantastic for us to be part of it from the very beginning,” Kerp added.

According to the Xodus representative, Australia is going through a “fairly rapid” energy transition. Kerp noted that the group is seeing records of renewable generation broken on a regular occurrence in the country.

Xodus, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Subsea 7, describes itself as a leading global energy consultancy. IBE Group describes itself as a leading renewable energy company with vast experience in delivering zero emission solutions to domestic and international markets. The majority of the company’s projects are located in regional Australia.
