The German parliament named a probable obstacle to the completion of the Nord Stream 2

The most likely obstacle to the completion of Nord Stream 2 in the German parliament was called a possible extension of the lockdown. This was stated by the deputy of the Bundestag Waldemar Gerdt.

According to Gerdt, a possible extension of the restrictive measures introduced in Germany in connection with the coronavirus infection could lead to dire consequences in the German economy and affect the construction of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline.



This is a very serious test for the entire business. I think that most small and medium-sized businesses will not be able to recover normally from a lockdown ... Entire industries will remain in ruins. These are hundreds of thousands of unemployed, unpaid loans, lost business

- he said.

The MP is confident that the economic consequences of the coronavirus will affect not only Germany, but also neighboring countries, including Russia, which is building the gas pipeline. Losses in the economy can lead to a decrease in demand for "blue fuel" in Europe and not reach the expected volume, so it makes sense not to rush to complete the construction of Nord Stream-2.

If the economies of Germany and the EU collapse now, then there will be no demand for this fuel, as big as it was supposed, therefore, maybe it is not necessary to finish building it so quickly and so urgently

- added Gerdt.

At the same time, the German deputy stressed that he had no doubts about the final completion and commissioning of the Russian gas pipeline.

The most striking example is our vaccine, they gagged a lot of unfriendly mouths with this topic, and they called our military doctors in Italy, thanking them for their help. This is largely due to the fact that we have their older generation. after the war, some of our personalities called them nefty, though not in an evil way, and there they are still, mostly Russians.

      So far, the Germans are looking for reasons to hinder the completion of the SP-2. Maybe they no longer need pipeline gas, and the Russian Federation is being imposed with its raw materials. What else can you expect from unpredictable European "partners".

        Analyze and compare dates. And remember at the same time that the main problems with SP-2 began after Allseas left the project. More precisely, after the introduction of the first batch of US sanctions.
        As for the pandemic, for some reason Germany did not have any references to it in the spring of last year, when it introduced the first lockdown. And in Russia, when she did something similar a little later.
        And now, suddenly, circumstances of irresistible force were revealed. But the clear shit is not US sanctions. This, it turns out, is again a lockdown.

The finance ministers of the European Union countries agreed that they would stop giving money not only for coal, but also for new oil and gas projects. In other words, natural gas is now also not welcomed. Hydrogen should take its place.

        In June, the German government published the National Strategy for Hydrogen Energy, according to which transport, metallurgy and petrochemical industries will be switched to the new fuel. Until 2023, the country will spend 10 billion euros for these purposes, seven of which will have to stimulate domestic demand. Germany is going to produce hydrogen using renewable energy sources - wind and sun. And since it does not have enough own capacities, international projects in North Africa and Morocco are being prepared. In general, the EU intends to spend 470 billion euros on the transition to hydrogen fuel by 2050. "

          Until 2050 we still have to get there. And without a cheap source of energy - I mean Gas Energy - the economy may not allow switching to hydrogen. By the way, hydrogen turbines are derivatives from gas turbines (the experiment is going on with the SGT-400 Stmens turbine), which operate on Natural gas and the principle
          add up to 100% hydrogen to natural gas
          .
          Therefore, without natural gas, especially at first, you can not do in any way.
          About Russia:
          GK quote:
          We have launched research and development work on the creation of hydrogen gas turbines. In fact, these will be modifications of the GTE-65 and GTE-170 turbines, which the company is currently working on. We understand that we will need to create a combustion chamber that runs on hydrogen and a methane-hydrogen mixture. Other elements of the turbine can also undergo changes, but to a lesser extent. We started this work together with a number of Russian enterprises with experience in hydrogen energy. A separate design department "SM-Hydrogen" has already been created and is working for these purposes.

          On my own behalf, work is underway, the first experimental model is planned in Samara by 23. In addition to SM, several more were involved in the work.

              Welcome.
              hi
              I read it well)))
              Here you write:
              The National Strategy for Hydrogen Energy, according to which transport, metallurgy and petrochemical industries will be transferred to the new fuel.

              What is needed for metallurgy and petrochemistry? Cheap electricity and syngas for burning in blast furnaces.
              The question to you is how to get electricity from hydrogen?

              Hydrogen gas turbine
              The key technology required for the large-scale use of hydrogen in gas-fired power generation is the hydrogen turbine. According to Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems (MHPS), existing gas turbine plants can increase the proportion of hydrogen to 20% in its mixture with natural gas without significant design changes. MHPS successfully tested a J-Series heavy-duty gas turbine in Japan using a mixture of natural gas (70%) and hydrogen (30%). The tests were carried out at the Takasago plant on a 700 MW combined-cycle plant (efficiency - 63% with a gas temperature after the combustion chamber of the GTU - 1600 ° C). Vortex mixing burners were used for fuel combustion. Thanks to hydrogen, CO2 emissions were reduced by 10%, while nitrogen oxide emissions, according to the company, “remained at a satisfactory level”.

              Germany and turbine:
              Implementation will begin at the Smurfit Kappa PRF facility. This company specializes in the production of recycled paper and is based in Sayat-sur-Vienne (France). The goal of the project is to prove that it is possible to store and then add up to 100% hydrogen to natural gas, which is currently used in thermal power plants. For this purpose, the existing industrial gas turbine SGT-400 manufactured by Siemens

              And this is where the nuances lie, with an increase in hydrogen (over 30%), a sharp increase in axid emissions begins, which needs to be addressed ..

              In general, there are many nuances:
              How does the so-called “green” hydrogen differ from “gray” or “yellow”?
              In short, then:
              Gray is the current situation, hydrogen is dirty production. For every kilogram of hydrogen produced, 9 to 10 kg of carbon are emitted. This hydrogen is called "gray". The most popular method for producing this gas is steam reforming of methane (90% of the produced hydrogen). This releases a huge amount of carbon into the atmosphere. The remaining 5% falls mainly on the no less dirty reforming of oil and oil products.

              Yellow - by nuclear power plant. One of the most promising methods for today: First, in this case we have both steam and excess electricity at hand. And secondly, H2 electrolysis will not give additional CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.
              Green - by electrolysis of water, when water decomposes into its components - hydrogen and oxygen - after the supply of electric current (RES). Today, about 2% of the world is produced by this method. Total.


              Total:
              Since we are talking about Germany, then its chosen path, the development of numerous options for turbines operating on a mixture of natural gas and / or hydrogen.
              And second, a lot will depend on the cost of hydrogen production, which depends on the production technology. So, the cost of electrolysis of 1 kg of hydrogen at a wind farm is $ 4, with the help of solar panels - $ 7. But gasification of hydrocarbons and steam conversion of methane so far cost only $ 1,5-2,5.
              Therefore, my conclusion, which I above and wrote:
              the transition to Hydrogen Energy requires a lot of money and a good state of the economy, which should allow it. Natural gas is currently the only option for Germany, since it cannot afford the “Yellow” option for producing Hydrogen.

              hi

Ammonia is suitable for use as an energy source, in particular, in internal combustion engines (ICE). However, the required revision of the engine turns out to be a little more complicated and expensive than when converting a gasoline internal combustion engine to natural gas motor fuel (GTF).
                Ammonia does not have a high energy performance. Although in terms of energy intensity per unit volume, liquid anhydrous ammonia is approximately 2 times inferior to gasoline and diesel fuel, it has 2 indisputable advantages: it can be literally extracted from the air; during its combustion, no toxic compounds of carbon, sulfur, etc. are formed - only nitrogen and water

                  Hydrogen can be stored and stored, using it if necessary, increasing the power of the CHP plant when needed, and reducing it when it is not available.

                  The problem of green energy (wind turbines and the sun), that for their use in the system, traditional energy is needed, which compensates for dips and drops. I am generally silent about the synchronization of the system (for synchronization, it is necessary not only to match the frequency of the generated alternating current, but also many other parameters: active and reactive power, permissible deviation from the specified parameters, peaks, etc.).

                      First:
                      What are we discussing? Here is your text:
                      transport, metallurgy and petrochemical industry will be switched to new fuel

                      The second:
                      Synchronization issue power systems not that it is possible to provide solar panels to a separate taken house. If the house is autonomous and not connected to the system - figs with it, this private economy does not care about the system.
                      Third:
                      About the autonomy of a private house from panels - why not? I do not see any problems, but it will not be economically profitable everywhere (solar ones are placed where there are many sunny days a year, this is not just that).

          Renewable ... “Under the Renewable Energy Law, producers are entitled to a fixed fee regardless of the actual cost per kilowatt-hour. And in the event of a fall in prices, they should receive higher compensation, ”the newspaper writes. It cites the example that the share of green energy in electricity production in Germany is 45%, therefore the payments are high: “Last year, for example, network operators had to pay a record amount of 30,8 billion euros to green electricity producers to compensate them decline in electricity prices on the stock market. The amount is posted to the accounts of all consumers as a “RES tax”. In total, the cost of subsidies for green energy increased by 6,4 billion euros over the year ”. In 2020, the government limited the green tax at 6,5 eurocents per kilowatt. Considering that, according to Verivox, the average household of three consumes 4 kilowatt-hours annually, then the “green component” of the electricity price in 000 cost the average German family 2020 thousand euros. “Even if we take into account the different levels of purchasing power in countries, Germany ranks 2,6th in the world, which makes it the most expensive country in terms of electricity price in the G16,” Welt cites data from Verivox.

By 2030, the price of electricity from wind power plants will decrease to 5,2 rubles / kWh, solar - to 7,5 rubles / kWh, while at nuclear power plants it will rise to 7,5 rubles / kWh, on combined-cycle plants - up to 5,3 rubles / kWh, the expert says.

President of the World Nuclear Association Sama Bilbao-y-Leon, -" While electric power systems have largely been able to meet the growing share of variable renewable generation to date day, a further increase in their share will cause serious problems in terms of reliability, stability, sustainability and cost.

This means that, all other things being equal, methane pyrolysis (and other similar technologies for the production of pure hydrogen from natural gas, that is, immediately without CO2 emissions) will be cheaper, per unit of hydrogen produced, compared with electrolysis (2,5– 10 times less energy intensive) and with steam / autothermal methane reforming (no need for expensive CO2 capture and storage technology). Moreover, solving the problem of marketing solid carbon or soot (which is climate neutral against CO2 / CO emitted during reforming) as a byproduct of pyrolysis will not increase, but will further reduce the cost of hydrogen production "https: // www.gazprom.ru/press/news/reports/2020/pure-hydrogen/

                No, yellow is not equal to green. Yellow is obtained from natural gas, using energy from nuclear power plants and thermal power plants. Blue is obtained from gas using electric energy from wind and solar. Green is the decomposition of water using the energy of the wind and the sun. All of this gradation is based on how much carbon is produced in emissions after the process is completed.

                  Anyway, you need to take a lot of methane from somewhere, and a lot of energy, and somewhere to put a lot of carbon that is formed during this reaction. Carbon, in principle, the simplest, will go either into organic chemistry or for smelting. cast iron.

It is clear from what has been said that he projects the consequences of the lockdown on the entire German economy as a whole, which is what he is trying to justify a decrease in gas consumption in the future, and therefore promotes the idea that there is no reason to rush to the completion of JV-2 within a specific time frame.

    “However, the seemingly natural transition to greener natural gas was called into question a year ago. The finance ministers of the European Union countries agreed that they would stop giving money not only for coal, but also for new oil and gas projects. In other words, natural gas is now also not welcomed. Hydrogen should take its place.

    In June, the German government published the National Strategy for Hydrogen Energy, according to which transport, metallurgy and petrochemical industries will be switched to the new fuel. Until 2023, the country will spend 10 billion euros for these purposes, seven of which will have to stimulate domestic demand. Germany is going to produce hydrogen using renewable energy sources - wind and sun. And since it does not have enough own capacities, international projects in North Africa and Morocco are being prepared. In general, the EU intends to spend 470 billion euros on the transition to hydrogen fuel by 2050. "

    What will they do with hydrogen? laughing But the movement is undoubtedly going - which is still surprising - in spite of the wild density of "projects" and mega-chat on the corresponding topic in the EU, the terrible energy poverty. In the 1980s there was a hydrogen village in France, there were professors and other QUALIFIED specialists. It ended in explosions and fires.  laughing

    Electrolysis - energy from solar panels in Africa and wind turbines in the north sea laughing hydrogen is just a very unusual gas. Volatile, fluid, explosive and brittle metals. Due to its insidious properties, they try not to store much and not transport it far. Produced and used, that's all. I doubt that a global hydrogen infrastructure can be built relatively inexpensively. As it becomes to some extent, catastrophes will go. The combustion temperature of household gas is from 800 to 1970 C. The combustion temperature of hydrogen is 3200.

    If the economies of Germany and the EU collapse now, then there will be no demand for this fuel, as big as it was supposed, therefore, maybe it is not necessary to finish building it so quickly and so urgently

Judging by the fact that Madrid and other European capitals were covered in snow with a layer of up to 50 cm in January, we can safely assume that the demand for "blue fuel" will not decrease.
