Abstract

In the context of the new era of "dual-carbon" economy, an increasing number of industries are moving towards low-carbon economic development. Low-carbon development strategies and efficient resource utilization have gradually become indispensable conditions and foundations for sustainable development in various sectors. China's energy structure is rapidly transitioning towards diversification, clean energy, and low-carbon solutions. To more effectively explore, develop, and utilize various offshore energy resources, this paper proposes an integrated offshore energy development model combined with CCUS (Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage) technology, aiming to achieve sustainable development of offshore energy. Firstly, electricity is generated through offshore wind power, photovoltaic systems, tidal energy, and salinity gradient power, providing a continuous supply of clean energy to offshore oil platforms and marine ranches, thereby achieving efficient energy utilization. Secondly, waste gases produced during operations are managed through CCUS technology to achieve low-carbon or even zero-carbon emissions, enabling zero-carbon offshore production and living. Furthermore, the integrated construction model of new energy and CCUS facilitates the efficient utilization of carbon dioxide. Ultimately, this study provides strategic recommendations for the sustainable development of offshore energy, including the use of electricity, fossil fuels, nuclear energy, hydrogen, and other clean and efficient energy sources, thereby advancing research on the sustainable development of integrated offshore energy systems.
