"Gazprom" creates a specialized subsidiary "Gazprom hydrogen" for the implementation of projects in this area, said the head of the Department of Energy Saving and Environment "Gazprom (MCX: GAZP)" Alexander Ishkov at the Hydrogen Conference of the German-Russian Raw Materials Forum.
"We created specially in "Gazprom" an organization called "Gazprom hydrogen" with corresponding functions. We invite everyone to cooperate with this organization.", - said the Gazprom ecologist.
The corresponding slide of the presenter states: "It was decided to create a specialized organization "Gazprom hydrogen". Implementation of innovative pilot projects in the field of hydrogen energy. Creation of technologies for low-carbon storage, transportation and use of methane-hydrogen mixtures and hydrogen. Development of solutions for the sale of hydrogen and methane-hydrogen mixtures abroad".
Among the concerns of the concern in the field of hydrogen energy, he named the construction of a large plant for the production of H2 from methane in Germany near the shoreline of the main lines "Nord Stream" 1 and 2. At the same time, he noted that offshore gas pipelines are the most environmentally friendly way to deliver gas.
"One of these options is the construction of a large methane pyrolysis plant directly at the exit point of the gas pipeline "Nord Stream". Here, the carbon footprint will be 1.2-1.6 kg of CO2 per kilogram of hydrogen, which is almost three times lower than the criterion for low-carbon hydrogen in the European Union", - said the manager "Gazprom".
He also voiced the initiative of supplying hydrogen via pipelines from Russia to Europe, with reverse supplies of carbon dioxide from the EU to Russia for use or disposal..
"A project that I think nobody has ever discussed yet, but I think that "Mining University" (one of the most active scientific organizations of the Russian Federation in the development of hydrogen topics) and our others could carry out such work. This is an analysis and assessment of the possibilities of reverse or reverse transportation of CO2 to Russia when obtaining hydrogen by cheap traditional methods, such as conversion of methane, and CO2 can be delivered back to Russia via the existing infrastructure of gas pipelines for disposal or for utilization in other ways. This project has not been fully calculated, but preliminary says that it could provide cheaper low-carbon hydrogen for the European Union without building a huge infrastructure, say for electrolysis and renewable sources.", - said the specialist.
Ishkov also said that today "Gazprom" produces 360 thousand tons of hydrogen per year at its facilities. "And as of today, literally from next year, we could supply up to 10 thousand tons of hydrogen to potential consumers. But provided that this consumer has technologies for transporting him in one form or another before his consumption, since this infrastructure is not yet in liquid, balloon or sorbed form.", - he added.
