Amp Finalises Commercial Agreements for Cape Hardy Advanced Fuels Precinct
ADELAIDE, Australia, May 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - Amp Energy ("Amp" or the "Company") announced today it has finalised all required commercial agreements for the development of the Cape Hardy Advanced Fuels Precinct – one of the leading green hydrogen, green ammonia and advanced fuel projects in Australia. The agreements, which were executed with Iron Road Ltd, include the purchase of a 630-hectare parcel of land at Cape Hardy as well as finalised royalty structure and common user infrastructure agreement. Amp will continue to build upon development progress made since announcing the Strategic Framework Agreement with Iron Road Ltd in April 2023 to bring advanced fuel production capacity to Cape Hardy.
澳大利亞阿德萊德，2024年5月20日 /PRNewswire/-Amp Energy（“Amp” 或 “公司”）今天宣佈，它已經敲定了開發Cape Hardy先進燃料區的所有必要商業協議，該區是澳大利亞領先的綠色氫氣、綠色氨和先進燃料項目之一。這些協議是與Iron Road Ltd簽訂的，包括在哈迪角購買一塊佔地630公頃的土地，以及最終的特許權使用費結構和通用用戶基礎設施協議。Amp將繼續在自2023年4月宣佈與Iron Road Ltd簽署戰略框架協議以來取得的開發進展的基礎上再接再厲，爲哈迪角帶來先進的燃料生產能力。
The Cape Hardy Advanced Fuels Precinct will provide production at scale with up to 10 GW of planned electrolyser capacity. Development will be structured to initially bring 1 GW online with incremental stages to reach 10 GW of total capacity. The project will both cater to the domestic Australian market, supporting the Australian Government's net zero goals, while also featuring global export capabilities. To facilitate distribution, Cape Hardy will be equipped with Australia's first purpose-built advanced fuels export terminal.
Cape Hardy先進燃料區將提供大規模生產，計劃中的電解槽產能高達10吉瓦。開發結構將首先使1吉瓦上線，然後分階段逐步實現，總容量達到10吉瓦。該項目既將迎合澳大利亞國內市場，支持澳大利亞政府的淨零目標，又具有全球出口能力。爲了促進配送，Cape Hardy將配備澳大利亞第一個專門建造的先進燃料出口碼頭。
Amp has been in discussions to develop the Cape Hardy Advanced Fuels precinct, in collaboration with Iron Road Ltd and The Government of South Australia, for the past two years. During that time, Amp has made significant development progress. The project's concept, design, and pre-Front End Engineering Design (FEED) phase have been studied and reviewed by two leading global engineering firms, Arup and Technip Technologies, as Amp targets completion of pre-FEED studies for the first 1 GW electrolyser phase over the next 9 months. FEED scoping and contracting is currently underway ahead of awarding the FEED contract in late 2024 or early 2025.
在過去的兩年中，Amp一直在討論與Iron Road Ltd和南澳大利亞政府合作開發Cape Hardy先進燃料區。在此期間，Amp 取得了重大開發進展。該項目的概念、設計和前端工程設計（FEED）階段已經過兩家領先的全球工程公司Arup和Technip Technip Technip Technologies的研究和審查，因爲Amp的目標是在未來9個月內完成第一個1 GW電解槽階段的預饋研究。在2024年底或2025年初授予FEED合同之前，FEED的範圍界定和合同目前正在進行中。
Desalinated water is to be sourced from the recently announced Northern Water Supply (NWS) seawater desalination plant that will be located at Cape Hardy to meet the project's demand for electrolyser feed water, cooling water, process plant water, and fire water. Amp is co-funding pre-FID expenditures for the NWS project.
淡化水將來自最近宣佈的北方供水公司（NWS）海水淡化廠，該廠將位於哈迪角，以滿足該項目對電解槽給水、冷卻水、加工廠用水和消防用水的需求。Amp正在共同資助NWS項目的FID前支出。
Additionally, Amp is working closely with the Barngarla Determination Aboriginal Corporation RNTBC ("BDAC"). With continued support from the BDAC, Amp is confident the Cape Hardy Advanced Fuels Precinct will have a meaningful economic impact on the region. Amp currently estimates this will include approximately 4,000 direct and 6,000 indirect jobs for the first gigawatt of electrolyser capacity alone.
此外，Amp正在與巴恩加拉決心原住民公司RNTBC（“BDAC”）密切合作。在BDAC的持續支持下，Amp相信哈迪角先進燃料區將對該地區產生有意義的經濟影響。Amp目前估計，僅第一千兆瓦的電解槽容量就將包括約4,000個直接工作和6,000個間接工作崗位。
"We are seeing growing demand for Advanced Fuels both in Australia and abroad. This includes green ammonia, liquid hydrogen, methanol, and sustainable aviation fuel. The Cape Hardy Advanced Fuels Precinct will allow for large-scale production of these fuels that will be critical to the energy transition and achieving net zero targets. We could not be more excited about the project's potential impact, and we are grateful for the partnership and continued support from Iron Road Ltd, the South Australian Government and BDAC as we progress full steam ahead on development" said Paul Ezekiel, Amp President and Co-founder.
“我們看到澳大利亞和國外對先進燃料的需求不斷增長。這包括綠色氨、液氫、甲醇和可持續航空燃料。哈迪角先進燃料區將允許大規模生產這些燃料，這對於能源轉型和實現淨零目標至關重要。我們對該項目的潛在影響感到無比興奮，我們感謝Iron Road Ltd、南澳大利亞州政府和BDAC在我們全力推進開發過程中的合作和持續支持。” Amp 總裁兼聯合創始人 Paul Ezekiel 說。
Minister for Trade and Investment, Joe Szakacs said "The State Government recognises the strategic importance of the Cape Hardy Advanced Fuels Precinct attracting investment into the state for domestic and export opportunities, as there is an increasing flight to quality for hydrogen projects worldwide."
貿易和投資部長喬·薩卡奇說 “州政府認識到，Cape Hardy先進燃料區吸引投資進入該州以獲得國內和出口機會的戰略重要性，因爲全球氫能項目的質量越來越高。”
