據(jù)油價(jià)網(wǎng)5月29日?qǐng)?bào)道，印度最大的油氣生產(chǎn)商、國(guó)有油氣勘探公司——印度石油天然氣公司(ONGC)正尋求擴(kuò)大其可再生能源投資組合，并計(jì)劃在綠色項(xiàng)目上投資120億美元。

據(jù)彭博社報(bào)道，ONGC董事長(zhǎng)Arun Kumar Singh在周一的新聞發(fā)布會(huì)上表示，到2030年，ONGC的運(yùn)營(yíng)組合將從3月底的189兆瓦增加到1萬(wàn)兆瓦，即10吉瓦。

他在新聞發(fā)布會(huì)上表示：“2040年，印度對(duì)化石燃料的需求將繼續(xù)增長(zhǎng)，但與此同時(shí)，我們必須加大對(duì)綠色能源的努力。”

“我們必須這樣做，這樣兩個(gè)領(lǐng)域才能共存。”他補(bǔ)充說。

彭博社本月早些時(shí)候援引印度中央電力局的報(bào)道稱，盡管印度大力發(fā)展風(fēng)能和太陽(yáng)能發(fā)電，但至少在2030年之前，印度仍將嚴(yán)重依賴燃煤發(fā)電。

印度煤炭部長(zhǎng)曾在2022年底表示，該國(guó)無意在短期內(nèi)將煤炭從其能源結(jié)構(gòu)中剔除。

他在議會(huì)委員會(huì)發(fā)表講話時(shí)表示，至少到2040年，煤炭將繼續(xù)在印度發(fā)揮重要作用，煤炭是一種負(fù)擔(dān)得起的能源，印度對(duì)煤炭的需求尚未達(dá)到峰值。

印度石油天然氣公司是印度最新一家致力于投資可再生能源領(lǐng)域的大型能源公司。

去年初，印度綜合企業(yè)信實(shí)工業(yè)(Reliance Industries)公司表示，未來15年將在印度的綠色能源項(xiàng)目上投資高達(dá)760億美元。信實(shí)工業(yè)公司早在一年前就宣布了一項(xiàng)承諾，將在三年內(nèi)向一個(gè)新的業(yè)務(wù)部門投資100多億美元，該部門將建設(shè)太陽(yáng)能組件、電池存儲(chǔ)、電解槽和燃料電池工廠。

India’s Largest Oil And Gas Company To Invest $12 Billion In Renewables

Indian state-held oil and gas explorer, Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC), the biggest oil and gas producer in the country, is looking to boost its renewable energy portfolio and plans $12 billion in investment in green projects.

onGC looks to have as much as 10,000 megawatts, or 10 GW, in its portfolio of operations by 2030, up from just 189 MW at the end of March, ONGC’s chairman Arun Kumar Singh said at a press conference on Monday, as carried by Bloomberg.

“India will continue to grow in fossil fuel demand until 2040, but at the same time we have to step up our efforts for green energy,” Singh said during the press briefing.

“We have to do this so that both the worlds can co-exist,” he added.

Despite its push into wind and solar electricity generation, India is set to remain heavily reliant on coal power at least until 2030, Bloomberg reported earlier this month, citing the country’s Central Electric Authority.

India’s coal minister said at the end of 2022 that the country has no intention of ditching coal from its energy mix any time soon.

Addressing a parliamentary committee, Coal Minister Pralhad Joshi said that coal would continue to play an important role in India until at least 2040, referring to the fuel as an affordable energy source for which demand has yet to peak in India.

onGC is the latest big energy firm in India to commit to investments in the renewable energy sector.

Early last year, India’s oil-to-telecoms conglomerate Reliance Industries said it would invest as much as $76 billion in green energy projects in India over the next 15 years.   Reliance Industries already announced the year prior a commitment to invest more than $10 billion in three years in a new business unit that would build solar module, battery storage, electrolyzer, and fuel cell factories.

This year in March, Indian Oil Corp, the country’s top refiner and fuel retailer, said it would consolidate all its green energy businesses into a wholly-owned unit with the purpose of boosting its clean energy division.
