Gas Processing & LNG Industry Spotlight
ture market changes-may be advantageous to position a facility
for a smoother transition to low-carbon operation.
The renewable barrier. If e-LNG compression is intended
to lower Scope 1 and 2 emissions, the carbon intensity of the
energy used to power the LNG compression train is essential.
A plant that chooses an electric drive powered by fossil-based
energy could claim it has no emissions at the plant itself, but its
Scope 2 emissions would remain heavy.
For e-LNG to be truly carbon neutral, the motors must be
powered by clean energy. In some cases, this becomes a barrier
to adoption. Unfortunately, there are not enough renewables
on the grid in many areas to power electric motors at the scale
needed for a larger LNG production plant, and the available
electricity is too expensive to make the investment worthwhile.
However, other areas have found success, casting a positive
example for those plants with adequate energy resources. The
west coast of Canada has many proposed projects pairing renewables
with electric motors for LNG compression due to the
significant availability of hydropower. As of 2019, Canada held
more than 81,000 MW of hydroelectric power capacity, which
provides a strong baseload of renewable energy to support
these plants. Another potential route to decarbonization without
grid renewables is carbon capture. Motors are still applied on
the compressors with power supplied by an onsite power plant,
but a centralized carbon capture unit can be installed instead of
distributed across multiple point sources. Offtake for CO2
product
or infrastructure for sequestration is required near the terminal
site to realize this as a feasible option.
Moving forward. Although the U.S., in many areas, lacks the
renewable capacity to power large-scale e-LNG plants, it does
have significant plans for the modernization and decarbonization
of power. The Biden Administration's Infrastructure Investment
and Jobs Act, passed in late 2021, provides billions
of dollars for renewable development and upgrades to grid
transmission infrastructure, enabling greater availability of lowcarbon
energy for future LNG plants.
As new LNG plants are established and older ones are expanded
and upgraded, many look to electric drive as a sustainable
solution. Though not a panacea, e-LNG offers an adaptable
compression option that can grow with the clean energy
transition, offering asset longevity as decarbonization targets
are realized.
