據(jù)《能源年》3月7日?qǐng)?bào)道，能源跨國(guó)公司Equinor和英國(guó)石油上周四宣布，兩家已簽署協(xié)議，將紐約州的南布魯克林海運(yùn)終端改造成海上風(fēng)電行業(yè)的運(yùn)營(yíng)和維護(hù)中心。

更新設(shè)施的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施，包括安裝低排放技術(shù)，將花費(fèi)2億美元-2.5億美元。

該終端將有能力為Empire Wind項(xiàng)目、Beacon Wind項(xiàng)目和東海岸海上風(fēng)電進(jìn)一步的開發(fā)項(xiàng)目提供和組裝最大的海上風(fēng)電技術(shù)組件。

終端運(yùn)營(yíng)商、可持續(xù)南布魯克林海運(yùn)終端和紐約市經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展公司也簽署了該協(xié)議。

預(yù)計(jì)該開發(fā)項(xiàng)目將在該地區(qū)創(chuàng)造1,000多個(gè)工作崗位。

Empire Wind和Beacon Wind項(xiàng)目將使這兩家跨國(guó)公司在紐約州開發(fā)3.3吉瓦的可再生能發(fā)電量，足以為大約200萬(wàn)戶家庭供電。

Equinor計(jì)劃加快該州海上可再生能源的開發(fā)，以實(shí)現(xiàn)其到2030年安裝12吉瓦-16吉瓦可再生能源產(chǎn)能的雄心。

BP, Equinor create offshore wind hub in New York

Equinor and BP have signed an agreement to transform the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal in the state of New York into an operations and maintenance hub for the offshore wind sector, the two energy multinationals announced on Thursday.

Between USD 200 million and USD 250 million will be spent on updating the facility’s infrastructure, including the installation of low-emissions technology.

The terminal will have the capacity to stage and assemble the largest offshore wind technology components for the Empire Wind project, the Beacon Wind project and further offshore wind developments on the East Coast.

The agreement was also signed by the terminal operator, Sustainable South Brooklyn Marine Terminal, and New York City Economic Development Corporation.

The development is expected to create more than 1,000 jobs in the region.

The Empire Wind and Beacon Wind projects will see the two multinationals develop 3.3 GW of renewable capacity in the state of New York, enough to power around two million homes.

Equinor plans to accelerate development of offshore renewables in the state to meet its ambitions of installing 12-16 GW of renewable capacity by 2030.
