中國石化新聞網訊 據彭博社8月23日報道稱,化石燃料的排放成本在歐洲升至十多年來的最高水平,超過了每噸20歐元(合23美元),增加了整個歐洲大陸的電力成本。 自2017年年中以來,碳排放許可已從不足5歐元翻了兩倍多。原因在于歐盟各國政府同意削減自2008年開始的金融危機以來一直壓低價格的貿易順差。公用事業和工業污染者需要這些證書來涵蓋他們產生的溫室氣體排放。 此舉提醒人們,該地區各國政府已下定決心減少導致全球變暖的溫室氣體排放,首先是將電力行業從使用煤炭轉向使用天然氣和可再生能源等更清潔的燃料。其結果是英國、法國和德國電力價格多年來一直處于最高水平。 徐蕾 摘譯自 彭博社 原文如下: Carbon Reaches 10-Year High, Pushing Up European Power Prices The cost of fossil-fuel emissions rose to its highest level in more than a decade in Europe, surpassing 20 euros a ton ($23) and adding to the cost of electricity across the continent. Carbon emission permits have more than quadrupled from less than 5 euros since the middle of 2017 after European Union governments agreed to cut away a surplus that had depressed prices since the financial crisis that started in 2008. Utilities and industrial polluters need the certificates to cover greenhouse gas emissions they produce. The move is a reminder that governments across the region are determined to curtail the emissions blamed for global warming, starting with shifting the power industry away from using coal and toward cleaner fuels such as natural gas and renewables. The result has been some of the highest power prices in years in Britain, France and Germany. ?
