中国石化新闻网讯 据天然气新闻2020年5月27日伦敦报道，国际能源署（IEA）5月27日表示，由于COVID-19危机可能减缓世界向更清洁和可持续能源系统的过渡，今年全球能源投资预计将下降20%，即下降近4000亿美元。

根据IEA的《世界能源投资2020》报告，由于需求下降、价格下跌和拖欠账单的现象增多，今年流向政府和能源行业的世界能源收入将减少1万亿美元以上。

IEA表示，油价下跌将对石油造成最严重的影响，这将标志着全球能源投资将出现历史上最大的滑坡。全球消费者在石油上的支出将首次低于电力支出。

IEA署长法提赫?比罗尔说：“全球能源投资的历史性大幅下降令人深感不安，原因有很多。”

他补充说：“这意味着今天失去工作机会和经济机会，以及失去一旦经济复苏我们明天可能需要的能源供应。“

比罗尔说：“在关键清洁能源技术上的支出放缓，也有可能破坏向更具韧性和可持续能源系统急需的过渡。“

尽管全球冠状病毒疫情大流行对石油和天然气价格的影响令人震惊，然而就在这份报告发布的前一天，全球最大的石油和天然气生产国的首脑们承诺，将继续把战略重点放在生产更清洁的能源上和帮助减缓气候变化上

5月26日，由行业主导的“油气气候行动倡议”表示对COVID-19危机可能促使油气公司和政府推迟采取气候行动的“担忧”。该倡议表示将致力于维持这一使命，以帮助“应对气候挑战”。

Collapse in global energy investment risks slowing transition, create supply shortage: IEA

Global energy investment is expected to plunge by 20%, or almost $400 billion, in 2020 as the COVID-19 crisis risks slowing the world's transition to cleaner and sustainable energy systems, said the International Energy Agency on May 27.

Through a combination of falling demand, lower prices and a rise in non-payment of bills, world energy revenues flowing to governments and industry are set to shrink by well over $1 trillion this year, according to IEA's World Energy Investment 2020 report.

Set to mark the largest ever collapse in global energy investment in history, the decline will take the heaviest toll on oil, said the IEA, with global consumer spending on the commodity set to fall below the amount spent on electricity for the first time.

"The historic plunge in global energy investment is deeply troubling for many reasons," said Fatih Birol, the IEA's Executive Director, adding:

"It means lost jobs and economic opportunities today, as well as lost energy supply that we might well need tomorrow once the economy recovers."

"The slowdown in spending on key clean energy technologies also risks undermining the much-needed transition to more resilient and sustainable energy systems," said Birol.

The report comes a day after the heads of the world's biggest oil and gas producers pledged to maintain a strategic focus on producing cleaner energy and helping to mitigate climate change despite reeling from the impact of the pandemic on oil and gas prices.

Noting "concerns" that the COVID-29 crisis could push oil and gas companies and governments to delay climate action, the industry-led Oil and Gas Climate Initiative said May 26 that it is dedicated in maintaining this mission to help "combating the climate challenge."
