據能源經濟3月21日消息稱，印度和日本同意擴大清潔能源伙伴關系，涵蓋電動汽車、電池儲存和綠色氫燃料，作為這兩個亞洲經濟大國凈零碳排放路徑的樞紐。

“印度和日本認識到有必要探索各種選擇，以確保安全和穩定的能源供應，以實現可持續經濟增長和應對氣候變化的兩個目標。他們一致認為，實現低碳經濟沒有單一的途徑，而是每個國家都有不同的途徑?！?/p>

印度的目標是到2070年實現凈零碳排放，而日本則希望到2050年實現這一目標。

聯合聲明稱:“兩國正在開發低碳朝陽產業，并利用新技術和商業模式來減少碳排放。這為在清潔和可持續發展領域加強雙邊合作提供了巨大的潛力。”

兩國決定擴大2007年在日印能源對話框架下的合作，包括電動汽車(EV)、電池等存儲系統、電動汽車充電基礎設施(EVCI)、太陽能光伏電池等太陽能開發、風能、清潔煤技術等。

他們還在綠色氫和氨、液化天然氣、生物燃料和戰略石油儲備方面進行合作。

India, Japan to collaborate on EVs, hydrogen, battery storage

India and Japan on Saturday agreed to extend clean energy partnership to cover EVs, battery storages and green hydrogen as the two Asian economic powerhouse pivot net zero carbon emission pathways.

"India and Japan acknowledge the need to explore a variety of options to ensure a secure and stable supply of energy for achieving both goals of sustainable economic growth and addressing climate change. They share the view that there is no single pathway to achieve a low-carbon economy, but rather there are different paths for each country," it said.

While India is targeting net zero-carbon emission by the year 2070, Japan is looking to achieve the target by 2050.

"Both countries are tapping into low-carbon sunrise sectors and exploiting new technologies and business models to reduce carbon emissions," the joint statement said. "This offers immense potential to enhance bilateral cooperation in the area of clean and sustainable development."

The two nations agreed to expand the 2007 cooperation under the Japan-India Energy Dialogue to include Electric Vehicles (EV), storage systems including batteries, electric vehicle charging infrastructure (EVCI), development of solar energy including solar PV cells, wind energy and clean coal technologies.

They also collaborate on green hydrogen and ammonia, LNG, biofuels and strategic oil reserves.
