Decorreu no dia 7 de abril a Conferência Hydrogen in Society - Bridging the Gaps, organizada pelo Ministério do Ambiente e da Ação Climática. Organizada em seis sessões de trabalho centradas em questões complementares que abordam os seguintes tópicos: políticas e estratégias para criar um verdadeiro mercado para o hidrogénio; uma visão internacional sobre o desafio e a oportunidade de um mercado global de hidrogénio; lacunas e barreiras existentes para construir a economia do hidrogénio, bem como na promoção de cadeias de valor sustentáveis, em parcerias, e no papel-chave dos ecossistemas de inovação. Filipe Costa, CEO da aicep Global Parques, participou no 5º painel subordinado ao tema 'Industrial clusters: the power of partnerships', onde apresentou as infraestruturas existentes na ZILS - Zona Industrial e Logística de Sines, para acolher projetos de Hidrogénio verde. Esta conferência reuniu várias entidades públicas e privadas a nível europeus, e está integrada no programa da Presidência Portuguesa da União Europeia.

What are the distinctive features of Sines for a green H2 cluster?
Sines, Portugal, Europe’s West Coast.

3. Portuguese Ministry of Environment’s Strategy for a “Sines Hydrogen Valley”

4. aicep Global Parques is a Portuguese State-Owned Enterprise
for the development and management of industrial sites:
✓ We manage Sines’ Industrial and Logistics Zone (ZILS),
currently providing 2,375 hectares for logistics, energy,
industry and IT&T (occupancy rate at 70%);
✓ ZILS is contiguous to the Port of Sines, and they are
integrated by pipelines, conveyer belt, road & rail;
✓ The Port of Sines and ZILS are served by efficient road & rail
links to the hinterland and high-capacity utility grids for
electricity, gas, water and a wastewater treatment plant;
✓ Permanent environmental monitoring plan in place for air
and surface and underground water quality control;
✓ Ready to welcome H2 industrial projects!
ZILS - Sines’ Industrial and Logistics Zone

5. The Port of Sines is Portugal’s major
deep-sea water port, with five
specialized terminals and proven
experience in handling energy
products such as crude, refined, LPG
and LNG.
Most relevant to H2 and LH2 are the
Petrochemical and the LNG terminals.
The Port of Sines can accommodate
new private use terminals, including
any LH2 or H2 dedicated terminals. LIQUID BULK TERMINAL (GALP)
PETROCHEMICAL TERMINAL (REPSOL)
LIQUEFIED NATURAL GAS TERMINAL (REN)
SOLID BULK TERMINAL (EDP)
CONTAINER TERMINAL (PSA)

6. LNG Infrastructures
Sines’ LNG Terminal is open 24/7/365.
One jetty with beds of 15 metres ZH,
admitting LNG tankers up to 225,000m3.
Current LNG tankage capacity at the
regasification and injection facilities is
390,000m3 .
The LNG infrastructure at Sines is
connected to the MIBGAS grid in the
Lisbon Metro Area by a gas pipeline.
There is availability for:
• Installing a 2nd jetty for LNG or LN2;
• New LNG or LN2 tankage in the port.

7. Port of Sines’ current participation in hydrogen projects
Collaborative Laboratory for Green
Hydrogen
Promoters:
BONDALTI, EDP, GALP, MARTIFER, REN
and VESTAS
Objective:
Develop scientific and technological
solutions for the use of hydrogen in a
safe, economically competitive and
efficient manner.
Green airports and ports as multimodal
hubs for sustainable and smart mobility
Promoters:
Ports of Rotterdam, Delaport and
HAROPA (ports of Le HAvre, ROuen and
PAris)
Objective:
Prepare the supply chain for a cleaner
and more sustainable future, using
green fuels in all means of transport.
Demonstration of innovative critical
technologies to enable future large-scale
deployment of offshore renewable energy
technologies
Promoters:
EDP, OCENENERGY, MACS, AUDI and more
Objective:
Design, manufacture and operate a 25m
demonstration vessel capable of
producing and storing ~3kg of H2 in ~4
hours from wind power.

8. Comprehensive network for electricity transmission
from “Sines Substation” 400Kv/150Kv/60Kv (East of
ZILS), connecting to “Monte Feio Substation”
60Kv/30Kv/15Kv (West of ZILS), a Petrochemical
Complex (60Kv), a Refinery (60Kv/150Kv), and a
recently deactivated Coal-Fired Powerplant (400Kv).
From “Monte Feio” there are connections to the City
of Sines, the Port of Sines and factories within ZILS.
A new switching station is currently under
construction (30Kv/60Kv) in the southernmost part of
ZILS. New 150Kv and 400Kv lines are coming for two
new industries currently setting-up; we support any
tailor-made solutions procured by our customers.
Power Grid

9. A Renewable Energy Community (REC) is being
implemented at ZILS, to be supplied by the
renewables cluster emerging on an array of nearby
private grounds.
Wind & PV electricity generation capacity in the
region is expanding, with several projects currently
undergoing permitting, and new projects coming.
Green Electricity Generation

10. Water Infrastructures
Abundant and high debit supply of industrial usage
water:
• current capacity 6m3/per second (518,400m3/day);
• future capacity 12m3/per second (Q3 2022);
• ZILS’ current consumption: 45,000~50,000m3/day.
Seawater intake & rejection existing private facilities:
• LNG Storage Tanks (REN);
• Power Plant (EDP).

11. Industrial costumers for H2
ZILS is an important refining,
petrochemical and industrial hub
of potential green H2 costumers:
• GALP refinery;
• Repsol petrochemical complex;
• Indorama petrochemical plant;
• Air Liquide air split unit.
