浮体式洋上風力で協力　日・デンマークが基本合意

　政府は２４日、デンマークと浮体式洋上風力発電の技術協力で基本合意したと発表した。世界的な風力発電機メーカーを抱える同国と、産官学が連携して研究開発や人材交流を進める枠組みを新設する。風力発電の利用による二酸化炭素（ＣＯ２）排出量を抑えた水素・アンモニアの製造と合わせて導入拡大を目指す。

The Japanese government said Tuesday that it has reached a basic agreement with the Danish government on technical cooperation in the area of floating offshore wind power generation.
   Japan and Denmark, which has world-class wind turbine makers, will establish a bilateral framework to promote research and development and personnel exchanges across the business, government and academic sectors.
   Tokyo aims to promote offshore wind power generation, along with the envisioned production of hydrogen and ammonia using electricity generated by wind power to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
   On Tuesday, industry minister Yasutoshi Nishimura and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen signed the basic agreement in Tokyo.
   "We want to further strengthen cooperation to expand the market" for floating offshore wind power generation, Nishimura said.
