據(jù)安迅思能源7月26日消息稱,埃尼集團和肯尼亞石油和礦業(yè)部簽署了一份諒解備忘錄,以通過整個生物燃料生產(chǎn)價值鏈上完全整合的循環(huán)經(jīng)濟的新工業(yè)模式促進脫碳進程以應(yīng)對氣候變化。
雙方將共同開展可行性研究,以發(fā)展廢物和殘渣收集以及農(nóng)業(yè)項目,目的是建立廣泛的原料來源,不與食品循環(huán)競爭,轉(zhuǎn)化為生物燃料和生物產(chǎn)品,可能有助于為埃尼在意大利格拉和威尼斯的生物精煉廠提供飼料。雙方還將評估將蒙巴薩煉油廠改造成生物煉油廠的機會,以及利用埃尼技術(shù) Ecofining? e Proesa 建造一座新工廠,利用廢棄生物質(zhì)生產(chǎn)第二代生物乙醇。
農(nóng)業(yè)發(fā)展項目的重點是發(fā)展可持續(xù)油料作物種植,即低ILUC(間接土地利用變化)原料,如覆蓋作物、退化土地上的蓖麻、農(nóng)林業(yè)系統(tǒng)中的巴豆樹和其他農(nóng)工業(yè)副產(chǎn)品。
這一舉措將有助于肯尼亞能源結(jié)構(gòu)的多樣化和支持整個脫碳進程,同時也減少該國對進口石油產(chǎn)品的依賴。其他預(yù)期收益包括發(fā)展可持續(xù)農(nóng)業(yè)活動和循環(huán)經(jīng)濟、利用可再生能源發(fā)電、促進當?shù)禺a(chǎn)業(yè)的經(jīng)濟競爭力和創(chuàng)造新的就業(yè)機會。
該協(xié)議有助于實現(xiàn)《巴黎氣候變化協(xié)定》的目標和聯(lián)合國可持續(xù)發(fā)展目標。這些項目還有助于實施《肯尼亞生物能源戰(zhàn)略》、《國家自主貢獻更新》、《肯尼亞國家發(fā)展計劃》,包括《肯尼亞2030愿景》。此外,這些舉措也符合埃尼集團在脫碳過程中發(fā)揮關(guān)鍵作用的承諾,以及該公司到2023年實現(xiàn)無棕櫚油的目標,以及到2024年將生物煉油廠產(chǎn)能翻倍至約200萬噸的目標。自2013年以來,埃尼公司一直通過子公司埃尼肯尼亞公司在肯尼亞開展業(yè)務(wù)。

Eni will use biofuels from Kenya for plants in Italy
Eni and the Ministry of Petroleum and Mining of Kenya signed an MoU to promote the decarbonization process to tackle climate change through new industrial models of fully-integrated circular economy along the whole bio-fuel production value chain.
The parties will jointly conduct feasibility studies to develop waste and residue collection as well as agricultural projects, with the purpose of establishing a wide range of feedstock sources that do not compete with food cycles, to be transformed into bio-fuels and bio-products that might contribute to feed Eni’s bio-refineries in Gela and Venice, Italy. The parties will also assess the opportunity of converting Mombasa refinery into a bio-refinery, as well as the construction of a new plant for second-generation bio-ethanol from waste biomass, leveraging on Eni technologies Ecofining? e Proesa.
The agricultural development project focuses on the development of sustainable oil crop cultivations - namely, low ILUC (indirect land use change) feedstock such as cover crops, castor in degraded lands, croton trees in agro-forestry systems and other agro-industrial co-products.
This initiative will contribute to diversifying Kenya’s energy mix and supporting the overall de-carbonization process, while also decreasing the Country’s dependence from imports of petroleum products. Other expected benefits include developing sustainable agricultural activities and circular economy, producing power from renewable sources, fostering the economic competitiveness of the local industry and creating new jobs.
The agreement contributes to the objectives of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change and to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The projects also contribute to the implementation of the Kenya Bioenergy Strategy, Updated Nationally Determined Contribution, Kenya’s National Development Plans, including Kenya Vision 2030. Also, the initiatives are in line with Eni’s commitment to play a pivotal role in the decarbonization process and with the Company’s target to become palm-oil free by 2023 and to double bio-refineries capacity to around 2mln tons by 2024. Eni has been present in Kenya since 2013 through its subsidiary Eni Kenya.
