據(jù)今日油價(jià)5月6日報(bào)道，國際能源署(IEA)執(zhí)行主任法提赫·比羅爾表示，第19次全球變暖造成的石油行業(yè)動蕩，為各國政府提供了一個(gè)絕佳的機(jī)會，將綠色能源作為就業(yè)來源，同時(shí)也為實(shí)現(xiàn)氣候目標(biāo)服務(wù)。

比羅爾在接受路透社采訪時(shí)表示，不僅太陽能和風(fēng)能等成熟技術(shù)應(yīng)該得到發(fā)展，鋰離子電池和電解水制氫技術(shù)也應(yīng)該得到補(bǔ)貼和政策支持。

鋰離子電池除了是電動汽車和電子設(shè)備的核心外，在太陽能和風(fēng)力發(fā)電場中也越來越重要，它可以儲存能量。

國際能源署在最近的一份報(bào)告中稱:“鋰離子電池現(xiàn)在是更廣泛能源領(lǐng)域的技術(shù)機(jī)遇，不局限于運(yùn)輸領(lǐng)域，且有必要進(jìn)一步擴(kuò)大制造能力。假設(shè)全球汽車工業(yè)宣布的電動汽車生產(chǎn)目標(biāo)能夠?qū)崿F(xiàn)，那么到2025年，全球?qū)⑿枰蠹s1000千兆瓦時(shí)的電池制造能力。這個(gè)產(chǎn)量相當(dāng)于50個(gè)規(guī)模相當(dāng)于特斯拉超級工廠的產(chǎn)能?！?/span>

IEA Chief Calls For Boost To Battery And Hydrogen Technology

The executive director of the International Energy Agency (IEA), Fatih Birol, said that the turmoil in the oil sector caused by the covid-19 pandemic gives governments the perfect opportunity to embrace green energy as a source of jobs that also serves climate goals.

In an interview with Reuters, Birol said that not only well-established technologies, such as those behind solar and wind generation should receive a boost, but also lithium-ion batteries and the use of electrolysis to produce hydrogen from water should be candidates for subsidies and policy support.

Besides being the backbone of electric vehicles and electronic devices, li-ion batteries are becoming more and more important in solar and wind farms to store energy when nature is not doing its part.

“Lithium-ion batteries are now a technology opportunity for the wider energy sector, well beyond just transport,” a recent report by the IEA states. “There is a need for manufacturing capacity to grow further. Assuming that the global auto industry’s announced targets for electric vehicle production are met despite the covid-19 crisis, around 1,000 GWh of battery manufacturing capacity would be needed in 2025. This output would require the equivalent of 50 plants, each on the scale of a Tesla Gigafactory.”

When it comes to electrolysers, which are devices that split water into hydrogen and oxygen using electrical energy and are considered a way to produce clean hydrogen from low-carbon electricity, research is moving towards making them a viable option for the mass transportation, shipping, aviation, long-haul trucks, the iron and steel and chemical industries.

Globally, there is growing interest in the development of efficient solutions to produce and store renewable energy. So much so that, for the first time ever, green power overtook coal as a source of electricity generation in 2019.

Figures from the IEA itself show that, overall, fossil fuels dropped by 245 TWh last year, while renewables production rose by 119 TWh from 2018 to 2019.

In Birol’s view, however, the oil sector should not be demonized as not only its products are to be used for years to come but also because many of such petrochemical products, such as sanitizers, have proven to be important in the face of the novel coronavirus pandemic.
