据油价网5月31日消息称，总部位于法国的超级能源巨头道达尔能源计划在美国建立一个大型工厂来生产合成天然气——这个项目将受益于法规中的税收抵免。

道达尔能源周三宣布的这一消息，对欧盟领导绿色能源技术的雄心来说是一个新的打击。

今年早些时候，欧盟公布了绿色交易工业计划，以提高欧洲净零排放产业的竞争力。但为了吸引清洁能源和清洁能源技术方面的投资，欧盟和英国都在努力效仿美国的经济激励措施。

因此，道达尔能源现在与欧洲的树木能源解决方案公司(TES)合作，在美国研究和开发一个大规模的e-NG生产装置。e-NG是一种由可再生氢和二氧化碳产生的合成气体。

两家公司预计该项目将受益于美国当前法律规定的税收抵免。

道达尔能源和TES将进行初步研究，目标是在明年达成最终投资决定(FID)。

据《每日电讯报》报道，该项目预计投资约20亿美元。

这家法国超级巨头表示，如果继续推进，该项目预计每年将生产10万至20万吨e-NG。

TotalEnergies Plans Synthetic Natural Gas Plant In The U.S.

France-based supermajor TotalEnergies plans to build a large-scale plant to produce synthetic natural gas in the United States—a project which will benefit from tax credits in the Inflation Reduction Act.

The announcement from one of Europe’s biggest oil and gas firms on Wednesday is a fresh blow to the European Union’s ambitions to lead in green energy technologies.

The EU unveiled earlier this year its Green Deal Industrial Plan to boost the competitiveness of Europe's net-zero industry. But both the EU and the UK have struggled to match the incentives in the IRA in the United States in order to attract investment in clean energy and clean energy technologies.

As a result, TotalEnergies is now teaming up with Europe-based Tree Energy Solutions (TES) to study and develop a large-scale production unit in the United States for e-natural gas (e-NG), a synthetic gas produced from renewable hydrogen and CO2.

The companies expect the project to benefit from tax credits under the IRA.

TotalEnergies and TES will carry out the preliminary studies and aim to reach a Final Investment Decision (FID) next year.

The project investment is expected to be around $2 billion, according to The Telegraph.

If moved forward, the project is expected to produce 100,000 to 200,000 metric tons of e-NG per year, the French supermajor said.
