美国能源部项目获批 1.26亿美元 的拨款 to 106 projects to pursue clean energy research and 开发ment

洛杉矶, 9月. 20, 2023 /PR新闻wire/ -- A project on which 南加州天然气公司. (SoCalGas)和总部位于塔尔萨的ClearSign技术公司的合作已经获得了超过100万美元的奖金 $1.600万年 来自美国.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to scale-up an ultra-low-NOx hydrogen-powered industrial burner prototype, and introduce this technology to industries in 南加州.

This preliminary award was part of 1.26亿美元 获颁106个项目 能源部宣布帮助像ClearSign这样的小企业解决能源部的多个任务领域, including clean energy and decarbonization, cyber证券交易委员会urity and grid reliability, 聚变能, 防止核扩散. SoCalGas will be providing an additional $500,000 to help fund the project and to field demonstrate the technology in 南加州. 燃烧器被设计成在高达100%的氢上运行,并帮助脱碳,难以通电, 高温工业过程.

“这个令人兴奋和创新的项目让我们看到了氢如何在帮助工业发展中发挥重要作用 加州 通过允许向清洁燃料过渡的技术,开始走向净零排放的道路。 尼尔·纳文, SoCalGas Chief Clean Fuels Officer. “像这样的清洁燃料技术投资将是为难以脱碳的行业提供快速、经济地实现净零排放的关键."

"We are extremely pleased to receive this support from the forward-looking team at SoCalGas. Our collaboration with SoCalGas provides not just additional financial support, but also their engagement with us in moving the energy transition forward in 加州, 并使我们的ClearSign核心技术成为SoCalGas服务的所有行业技术组合的一部分。 吉姆·戴勒, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of ClearSign.

"Big ideas become realities in the labs, 研讨会, 工厂, and plants of America's small businesses,” U.S. 能源部长 詹妮弗·米. 格兰霍姆, 在宣布 1.26亿美元 的拨款. "Small businesses tackle monumental issues all over the country, including climate change. DOE's small business grants help companies across the country to 开发 the technologies, 产品, and infrastructure we will need for the transition to clean energy."

The ClearSign project set out to build a process burner, which provides high heat in a number of industrial uses. 它可以使用天然气,天然气与氢或纯氢混合,并减少NOx 燃烧排放.

合作的第一阶段已经完成并部署了一个原型过程燃烧器,该燃烧器成功地集成了氢气和氢气混合物,同时保持了超低NOx output. 第二阶段, which will occur over the next two years, 是否需要将燃烧器的尺寸扩大到原型尺寸的四倍,并将其部署在需要高热量的实际工业环境中.

SoCalGas已经将清洁能源创新作为其帮助努力的关键组成部分,旨在使难以电气化的行业脱碳 加州 到2045年实现净零排放. 为此, SoCalGas正在努力开发 洛杉矶的链接, a proposed green hydrogen pipeline system to serve Southern and 加州中部. 这个项目, which could be the nation's largest green hydrogen pipeline system, could help significantly reduce greenhouse gas e任务s from transportation, 发电, 工业过程, and other hard-to-electrify 证券交易委员会tors of the 加州 经济.

SoCalGas is also working to help the state of 加州 开发 氢混合标准 通过试点项目, 为了更好地理解像可再生氢这样的清洁燃料是如何通过 加州的 现有天然气系统.
