Air Products to Invest $4.5 Billion in Louisiana Blue Hydrogen Plant
Air Products to Invest $4.5 Billion in Louisiana Blue Hydrogen Plant
By Colin Kellaher
Air Products & Chemicals Inc. on Thursday said it will build a $4.5 billion clean-energy complex in Louisiana, marking its biggest U.S. investment ever, as the world's transition to cleaner sources of energy continues to gain speed.
The Allentown, Pa., industrial gases company said the project would create 170 permanent jobs and would produce more than 750 million standard cubic feet of blue hydrogen a day.
"Blue" products are made using hydrocarbons as a feedstock, with the carbon dioxide in the production process captured for permanent sequestration.
Air Products said it will compress a portion of the blue hydrogen for supply to customers through its Gulf Coast hydrogen pipeline. The rest will be used to make blue ammonia that will be sent around the world and converted back to blue hydrogen for transportation and other markets.
Air Products said it expects the project will be operational in 2026.
Air Products in June unveiled plans to build a multi-billion-dollar hydrogen energy complex in Canada and last year said it was teaming with Saudi Arabia's ACWA Power to build a $5 billion green hydrogen-based ammonia-production facility powered by renewable energy in Neom, the $500 billion megacity being built in the kingdom.

Air Products&Chemical Inc.週四表示,將在路易斯安那州投資45億美元建造一座清潔能源綜合體,這是該公司有史以來在美國進行的最大一筆投資,因為全球向清潔能源的轉型繼續加快。
The Allentown, Pa., industrial gases company said the project would create 170 permanent jobs and would produce more than 750 million standard cubic feet of blue hydrogen a day.
這家位於賓夕法尼亞州艾倫敦的工業氣體公司表示,該項目將創造170個永久性就業機會,每天將生產超過7.5億標準立方英尺的藍氫。
"Blue" products are made using hydrocarbons as a feedstock, with the carbon dioxide in the production process captured for permanent sequestration.
“藍色”產品是以碳氫化合物為原料製造的,生產過程中捕獲的二氧化碳被永久封存。
Air Products said it will compress a portion of the blue hydrogen for supply to customers through its Gulf Coast hydrogen pipeline. The rest will be used to make blue ammonia that will be sent around the world and converted back to blue hydrogen for transportation and other markets.
Air Products表示,將壓縮部分藍氫,通過其墨西哥灣沿岸的氫氣管道供應給客户。其餘的將用於製造藍氨,這些氨將運往世界各地,並轉化回藍氫,用於運輸和其他市場。
Air Products said it expects the project will be operational in 2026.
Air Products表示,預計該項目將於2026年投入運營。

今年6月,Air Products公佈了在加拿大建設一個耗資數十億美元的氫能綜合體的計劃,並在去年表示,它正與沙特阿拉伯的ACWA Power合作,在沙特正在建設的5000億美元的特大城市Neom建造一個價值50億美元的綠色氫氣制氨設施。Neom是沙特正在建設的一個耗資5000億美元的特大城市。
