???? 據(jù)2月26日offshore energy消息：美國石油巨頭雪佛龍通過旗下一家子公司啟動了價值3億美元的未來能源基金II，該基金專注于提供更清潔能源的技術(shù)。

????其子公司雪佛龍科技風(fēng)險投資公司(CTV)推出了未來能源基金II，這是CTV自1999年成立以來推出的第八個風(fēng)險基金。

????CTV還有一個核心能源基金，該基金投資的技術(shù)有可能通過運營增強、數(shù)字化和低碳運營對雪佛龍的核心業(yè)務(wù)產(chǎn)生重大影響。

????首個未來能源基金于2018年推出。CTV投資了10多家公司，另有150多家投資者支持碳捕獲、新興移動和能源存儲領(lǐng)域的創(chuàng)新。

????雪佛龍表示，未來能源基金II將在首個未來能源基金成功的基礎(chǔ)上，重點關(guān)注工業(yè)脫碳、能源分散化和不斷增長的循環(huán)碳經(jīng)濟(jì)。

????雪佛龍創(chuàng)新副總裁兼技術(shù)風(fēng)險總裁Barbara Burger表示:“我們將繼續(xù)采取有意義的行動來應(yīng)對全球能源轉(zhuǎn)型帶來的挑戰(zhàn)和機遇。"

????“令我們感到自豪的是，我們的第二個未來能源基金有潛力通過幫助行業(yè)和客戶建設(shè)低碳未來，使能源和全球供應(yīng)鏈更具可持續(xù)性。”

????就在上個月，雪佛龍通過未來能源基金(Future Energy Fund)向總部位于圣何塞的Blue Planet Systems Corporation進(jìn)行了C輪投資。Blue Planet Systems是一家生產(chǎn)和開發(fā)碳化硅聚烯烴和碳捕獲技術(shù)的初創(chuàng)公司，旨在降低工業(yè)運營中的碳排放強度。

????在最近的財經(jīng)新聞中，雪佛龍公布了2021年140億美元的有機資本和勘探支出計劃，并將其長期指導(dǎo)方針降低至2025年前每年140億至160億美元。

????Chevron invests $300 million in low-carbon technology

????U.S. oil major Chevron has, through one of its subsidiaries, launched a $300 million-worth Future Energy Fund II focused on technologies that would enable cleaner energy for all.

????The subsidiary, Chevron Technology Ventures (CTV), launched Future Energy Fund II which is the eighth venture fund launched since CTV was established in 1999.

????Chevron Technology Venture also has a Core Energy Fund which invests in technologies with the potential to have a significant impact on Chevron’s core business through operational enhancements, digitalization and low-carbon operations.

????Chevron is also an investor as a limited partner in funds such as the Oil & Gas Climate Initiative’s (OGCI) Climate Investments and Emerald Technology Ventures’ Industrial Innovation Fund.

????The first Future Energy Fund was launched back in 2018. CTV invested in more than 10 companies with more than 150 other investors supporting innovations in carbon capture, emerging mobility, and energy storage.

????Chevron stated that Future Energy Fund II would build upon the success of the first Future Energy Fund with a focus on innovation in industrial decarbonization, energy decentralization, and the growing circular carbon economy.

????Barbara Burger, VP of innovation and president of technology ventures at Chevron, said: “We continue to take meaningful actions to address the challenges and opportunities of the global energy transition.

????“I’m proud that our second Future Energy Fund has the potential to make energy and global supply chains more sustainable by helping industries and our customers build a lower-carbon future”.

????Just last month, Chevron made a Series C investment through the Future Energy Fund in San Jose-based Blue Planet Systems Corporation, a startup that manufactures and develops carbonate aggregates and carbon capture technology intended to reduce the carbon intensity of industrial operations.

????In recent financial news, Chevron revealed a 2021 organic capital and exploratory spending program of $14 billion and lowered its longer-term guidance to $14 to $16 billion annually through 2025.
