中國石化新聞網訊 據安迅思倫敦12月7日消息，歐盟委員會和日本簽署了一份合作備忘錄，以刺激創新和發展國際氫能市場，盡管歐盟和日本未來仍有可能會爭奪氫供應，但仍將朝著全球貿易的方向發展。

歐盟能源專員西姆森和日本經濟產業大臣在東京簽署了該備忘錄。

新聞稿表示：“歐盟和日本將共同致力于可持續和負擔得起的可再生和低碳氫的生產、貿易、運輸、儲存、分銷和使用。這一合作將有助于建立一個基于規則的、透明的全球氫市場，不會扭曲貿易和投資。”

歐盟和日本都在尋求到2050年實現凈零排放，氫進口是實現該目標的關鍵。

諒解備忘錄還表示，歐盟和日本將在國際層面上努力實現共同標準和認證。

European Union, Japan intensifies hydrogen cooperation

The European Commission and Japan have signed a Memorandum of Cooperation (MoC) to spur innovation and develop an international hydrogen market, building towards global trade despite both markets potentially competing for hydrogen supply in the future.

The MoC was signed in Tokyo by Commissioner for Energy Kadri Simson and the Japanese Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Yasutoshi Nishimura.

“The EU and Japan will work together for sustainable and affordable production, trade, transport, storage, distribution and use of renewable and low carbon hydrogen. The cooperation will help to establish a rules-based and transparent global hydrogen market without distortions to trade and investment,” the press release said.

Both the EU and Japan are seeking to reach net zero by 2050 and the import of hydrogen is key to both strategies employed by the two.

The MoC also says that the EU and Japan will “at the international level work towards common standards and certification.”
