6 FAQs about [Energy island China]
What is an energy island?
In the context of this article, we define an energy island as a hub for electricity generation from off-grid renewable sources, possibly including related production of electricity-based fuels. We want to shed more light on this highly interesting concept and our view of its development towards mid-century.
Can energy Islands be used as energy distribution hubs?
Initially, many energy island concepts will mainly serve as electricity distribution hubs. However, there is a growing need to convert renewable-based power to molecular fuels, to supply clean energy to sectors such as industrial heating, maritime shipping, or aviation that have few alternatives to decarbonize.
Can energy islands help decarbonize the grid?
Regions such as Greater China are prioritizing employing energy islands to generate renewable power to decarbonize the grid, whereas Europe is focused on both grid decarbonization and dedicated hydrogen production. Initially, many energy island concepts will mainly serve as electricity distribution hubs.
How do energy Islands work?
Energy islands can enable the transport of renewable energy in the form of both electricity or as gas – in this case hydrogen. Electricity can be transported and fed into the grid or can be transported to closer-to-consumption hydrogen production sites onshore.
Can energy islands support the production of off-grid renewable electricity?
This feature article draws DNV's picture of how energy islands could support the production of off-grid renewable electricity and the decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors, through supporting hydrogen and other e-fuel production.
How much energy is produced in Hainan Province?
The total energy production in Hainan Province was 4.06 million tce in 2018, growing of 5.8% over the year before. The production of crude oil and natural gas was about 0.43 million tce and 0.13 million tce respectively, and the total production of hydro power and wind power was 3.5 million tce.
