可再生能源的回報(bào)超過化石燃料的三倍

據(jù)阿納多盧新聞3月22日消息稱，周四，帝國(guó)理工商學(xué)院氣候融資與投資中心和國(guó)際能源署（IEA）的最新聯(lián)合報(bào)告顯示，在過去10年里，可再生能源發(fā)電的收益是化石燃料的三倍，這表明化石燃料投資在下降。

報(bào)告發(fā)現(xiàn)，在疫情期間，可再生能源的需求下降了約5%(主要集中在碳密集型燃料)，不僅證明了可再生能源的組合具有彈性，而且可再生能源發(fā)電超過了化石燃料。

帝國(guó)理工商學(xué)院氣候金融與投資中心執(zhí)行主任Charles Donovan表示，進(jìn)行的研究顯示，在全球范圍內(nèi)，可再生能源的表現(xiàn)優(yōu)于化石燃料。

Donovan警告說：“這種情況已經(jīng)持續(xù)了十多年，但總投資仍然滯后。各國(guó)監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)，尤其是美國(guó)的監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)，必須著手進(jìn)行必要的改革，為清潔能源投資者創(chuàng)造公平的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)環(huán)境?！?/span>

報(bào)告稱，全球化石燃料投資組合的平均市值超過90億美元，是全球可再生能源投資組合平均市值(約45億美元)的兩倍。

然而，報(bào)告發(fā)現(xiàn)，化石燃料企業(yè)的盈利能力在總資產(chǎn)回報(bào)率方面下降了一半，而可再生能源企業(yè)的業(yè)績(jī)提高了三倍。

研究顯示，可再生能源在全球能源投資中所占比例已升至近五分之一，反映出人們對(duì)在去年危機(jī)期間繼續(xù)部署可再生能源的彈性預(yù)期。

Renewable returns outpace fossil fuels threefold

Renewable power generated triple the returns of fossil fuels over the last decade, signaling a decline in fossil fuel investments, revealed a new joint report from the Centre for Climate Finance and Investment at Imperial College Business School and the International Energy Agency (IEA) on Thursday.

The report found that not only did renewable energy portfolios prove resilient during the pandemic when energy demand declined by around 5% with the falls concentrated on more carbon-intensive fuels, but renewable power surpassed fossil fuels.

According to Charles Donovan, executive director of the Centre for Climate Finance and Investment at Imperial College Business School, research undertaken shows that renewable power has outperformed fossil fuels throughout the world.

"It has been the same story for more than a decade, yet total investment is still lagging. National regulators, particularly in the US, must get to work on the reforms needed to level the playing field for clean energy investors," Donovan warned.

According to the report, the average market capitalization for the constituents in the global fossil fuel portfolio is over $9 billion, twice greater than the average in the global renewable power portfolio worth around $4.5 billion.

However, the profitability of fossil fuel companies dropped by half for returns on total assets, while the performance of renewable companies improved threefold, the report found.

The share of renewable power out of global energy investments has risen to almost one-fifth, according to the study, reflecting the resilient expectations for continued deployment during the crisis last year.
