Nouveau revers pour les partisans de l'hydrog\u00e8ne dans le port d'Anvers-Bruges : la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 am\u00e9ricaine Plug Power abandonne d\u00e9finitivement son projet de construction d'une usine d'hydrog\u00e8ne sur l'ancien site d'Opel, dans le port d'Anvers.<\/p>\n

La semaine derni\u00e8re, on a appris que Fluxys \u00e9tait rencontrer des difficult\u00e9s<\/a> trouver des clients pour son r\u00e9seau de canalisations d'hydrog\u00e8ne. En raison de ce nouveau revers, il semble de plus en plus probable que le port d'Anvers-Bruges doive se positionner explicitement comme une simple plaque tournante d'importation et de transit pour les mol\u00e9cules issues d'\u00e9nergies renouvelables en Europe, plut\u00f4t que comme un producteur d'hydrog\u00e8ne vert \u2013 une \u00e9volution contre laquelle les experts en \u00e9nergie avaient d\u00e9j\u00e0 mis en garde par le pass\u00e9.<\/p>\n

Investissement pr\u00e9vu pouvant atteindre 400 millions d'euros<\/h4>\n

Le projet CHYMIA, qui repr\u00e9sente un investissement de 350 \u00e0 400 millions d'euros, a \u00e9t\u00e9 annonc\u00e9 en juin 2022 lors d'une mission \u00e9conomique \u00e0 New York. CHYMIA est l'acronyme de \u00ab Cluster HYdrogen for Mobility and Industry in Antwerp \u00bb (P\u00f4le de l'hydrog\u00e8ne pour la mobilit\u00e9 et l'industrie \u00e0 Anvers).<\/p>\n

\u00c0 cette \u00e9poque, Plug Power a sign\u00e9 un contrat de concession de 30 ans avec le port d'Anvers-Bruges en vue de la construction d'une usine d'hydrog\u00e8ne vert d'une puissance de 100 MW, capable de produire 35 tonnes d'hydrog\u00e8ne vert par jour, soit jusqu'\u00e0 12 500 tonnes par an.<\/p>\n

Cette usine, qui serait la plus grande installation de production d'hydrog\u00e8ne du pays, serait construite dans le NextGen District \u2013 l'ancien site d'Opel en cours de transformation en p\u00f4le europ\u00e9en d\u00e9di\u00e9 aux activit\u00e9s durables \u2013 et serait aliment\u00e9e en \u00e9lectricit\u00e9 provenant d'\u00e9oliennes situ\u00e9es \u00e0 proximit\u00e9.<\/p>\n

Ce projet \u00e9tait d'ailleurs particuli\u00e8rement ambitieux : CHYMIA devait \u00eatre une premi\u00e8re europ\u00e9enne, car il reposait sur la technologie de liqu\u00e9faction de l'hydrog\u00e8ne. L'hydrog\u00e8ne liquide a une densit\u00e9 bien sup\u00e9rieure \u00e0 celle de l'hydrog\u00e8ne gazeux, ce qui permet de r\u00e9duire les volumes de stockage tout en augmentant les r\u00e9serves.<\/p>\n

Selon Plug Power, cette technologie de liqu\u00e9faction n'existait pas encore sur le march\u00e9 \u00e0 cette \u00e9chelle.<\/p>\n

D'\u00e9normes difficult\u00e9s financi\u00e8res<\/h4>\n

Mais selon le journal \u00e9conomique *De Tijd*, qui a examin\u00e9 les comptes annuels r\u00e9cemment publi\u00e9s par la filiale belge, Plug Power met d\u00e9sormais un terme au projet.<\/p>\n

Ce projet est abandonn\u00e9 en raison des difficult\u00e9s financi\u00e8res auxquelles Plug Power est confront\u00e9e depuis des ann\u00e9es. L'entreprise traverse une crise de tr\u00e9sorerie persistante (elle vient de vendre deux projets li\u00e9s \u00e0 l'hydrog\u00e8ne aux \u00c9tats-Unis pour plus de 275 millions de dollars afin de d\u00e9gager des liquidit\u00e9s), et ses pertes cumul\u00e9es avaient d\u00e9j\u00e0 atteint 7,38 milliards de dollars d\u00e9but 2026.<\/p>\n

C'est pourquoi l'entreprise proc\u00e8de \u00e0 une restructuration de son portefeuille et se voit contrainte de se concentrer sur des projets offrant un retour sur investissement plus rapide \u2013 raison pour laquelle elle a abandonn\u00e9 le projet d'Anvers. Selon Plug Power, un autre facteur \u00e0 prendre en compte est la rentabilit\u00e9 future et l'\u00e9volution du march\u00e9 de l'hydrog\u00e8ne : celles-ci sont trop incertaines et floues.<\/p>\n

L'ACER, l'autorit\u00e9 de r\u00e9gulation de l'\u00e9nergie de l'UE, a par exemple estim\u00e9, dans sa derni\u00e8re \u00e9valuation du march\u00e9 de l'hydrog\u00e8ne, que l'hydrog\u00e8ne issu des \u00e9nergies renouvelables en Europe co\u00fbte en moyenne environ 8 \u20ac\/kg, soit pr\u00e8s de quatre fois le co\u00fbt de l'hydrog\u00e8ne conventionnel issu des \u00e9nergies fossiles. Les prix \u00e9lev\u00e9s de l'\u00e9lectricit\u00e9 jouent \u00e9galement un r\u00f4le \u00e0 cet \u00e9gard : \u00e0 elle seule, l'\u00e9lectricit\u00e9 peut repr\u00e9senter jusqu'\u00e0 50% du co\u00fbt de production.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Continue d'investir dans l'hydrog\u00e8ne<\/h4>\n

Pour autant, Plug Power ne se retire ni du secteur de l'hydrog\u00e8ne ni du march\u00e9 europ\u00e9en, aussi \u00e9trange que cela puisse para\u00eetre. L'activit\u00e9 de production d'hydrog\u00e8ne de Plug n'est pas encore rentable. Sa marge brute sur l'hydrog\u00e8ne s'est consid\u00e9rablement am\u00e9lior\u00e9e au deuxi\u00e8me trimestre, mais s'\u00e9tablissait toujours \u00e0 -48%, contre -91% un an plus t\u00f4t.<\/p>\n

Il s'agit donc simplement de r\u00e9affecter une partie de son capital vers des r\u00e9gions o\u00f9 les conditions \u00e9conomiques fondamentales sont plus favorables \u2013 par exemple, en raison de co\u00fbts d'\u00e9lectricit\u00e9 moins \u00e9lev\u00e9s. Il y a tout juste neuf jours, l'entreprise a notamment mis en avant plusieurs projets europ\u00e9ens en cours de r\u00e9alisation : Galp, au Portugal (100 MW); <\/strong>Iberdrola\/BP, Espagne (25 MW) ; et Carlton Power, Royaume-Uni (30 MW dans un premier temps, puis 55 MW \u00e0 terme).<\/p>\n

Comme le soleil brille plus fort et plus souvent en Espagne et au Portugal, un panneau solaire y produit davantage d'\u00e9lectricit\u00e9 par an qu'en Europe du Nord-Ouest.<\/p>\n

Au Royaume-Uni, d'autres facteurs entrent en jeu : l'acc\u00e8s \u00e0 l'\u00e9nergie \u00e9olienne offshore (faible co\u00fbt, volume important), les programmes de subventions britanniques sp\u00e9cifiques en faveur de l'hydrog\u00e8ne, ainsi que les p\u00f4les industriels, tels que ceux situ\u00e9s autour de Manchester, qui font office de clients phares.<\/p>\n

Autre \u00e9l\u00e9ment \u00e0 prendre en compte : la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique portugaise Galp finance cette installation dans le cadre de ses propres investissements en faveur de la d\u00e9carbonisation. Cela s'inscrit dans un programme d'investissement de 650 millions d'euros consacr\u00e9 aux carburants \u00e0 faible empreinte carbone.<\/p>\n

Elle consommera elle-m\u00eame l'hydrog\u00e8ne imm\u00e9diatement, sur place, dans le cadre d'un processus op\u00e9rationnel concret. Par cons\u00e9quent, Plug Power ne court aucun risque de march\u00e9, contrairement \u00e0 Anvers, o\u00f9 Plug devrait investir des centaines de millions, produire l'hydrog\u00e8ne, puis trouver suffisamment de clients pr\u00eats \u00e0 payer un prix suffisamment \u00e9lev\u00e9.<\/p>\n

L'accent est mis sur la fonction de plaque tournante d'importation et de transit du port d'Anvers-Bruges<\/h4>\n

Pour le port d'Anvers-Bruges, le retrait de cet investissement constitue un s\u00e9rieux revers, mais il confirme \u00e9galement une tendance qui se dessinait d\u00e9j\u00e0.<\/p>\n

La strat\u00e9gie ax\u00e9e sur les p\u00f4les d'importation et de transit prend une importance encore plus grande qu'auparavant, alors que les ambitions en mati\u00e8re de production tombent les unes apr\u00e8s les autres \u00e0 l'eau en raison de la situation \u00e9conomique difficile \u00e0 laquelle est confront\u00e9 le secteur de l'hydrog\u00e8ne vert \u00e0 l'\u00e9chelle mondiale.<\/p>\n

Selon l'autorit\u00e9 portuaire, l'option d'un projet pr\u00e9voyant des volumes de production plus modestes n'a pas encore \u00e9t\u00e9 totalement \u00e9cart\u00e9e, notamment parce que la concession de 30 ans est toujours en vigueur ; l'avenir de cette concession fait actuellement l'objet de discussions avec Plug.<\/p>\n

Dans le m\u00eame temps, cependant, on constate \u00e9galement un fort sens du r\u00e9alisme. \u201c Pour la Belgique, la production locale \u00e0 grande \u00e9chelle d\u2019hydrog\u00e8ne vert repr\u00e9sente un d\u00e9fi tant \u00e9conomique que technique, en partie en raison de la disponibilit\u00e9 limit\u00e9e d\u2019\u00e9lectricit\u00e9 issue de sources renouvelables \u201d, explique l\u2019autorit\u00e9 portuaire.<\/p>\n

\u201c C\u2019est pourquoi l\u2019importation d\u2019hydrog\u00e8ne et de vecteurs d\u2019hydrog\u00e8ne reste une option logique, pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment parce que le march\u00e9 reste tr\u00e8s prudent et que les investisseurs ont besoin de certaines garanties. \u201d Et cela contraste fortement avec la confiance presque aveugle accord\u00e9e \u00e0 l\u2019hydrog\u00e8ne \u2013 m\u00eame parmi les responsables politiques \u2013 il y a quelques ann\u00e9es.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
