據(jù)油價網(wǎng)8月12日消息稱，《悉尼先驅(qū)晨報》援引澳大利亞行業(yè)組織清潔能源委員會的數(shù)據(jù)報道稱，2021年第二季度，澳大利亞只有三個新項目達到了財政承諾階段，這是自2017年初以來季度項目承諾的第二低水平。

　　清潔能源委員會和反對派告訴《悉尼先驅(qū)晨報》的Peter Hannam，澳大利亞過去一年里能源政策的不斷變化，以及它拒絕像許多工業(yè)化國家一樣承諾到2050年實現(xiàn)凈零排放的目標，是該國太陽能和風能項目面臨的部分障礙。

　　清潔能源委員會首席執(zhí)行官Kane Thornton在接受《悉尼先驅(qū)晨報》采訪時表示：“由于投資者面臨的風險增加，包括電網(wǎng)連接和網(wǎng)絡(luò)限制，以及持續(xù)的不可預測和無益的政府政策干預和市場改革，清潔能源投資已降至多年未見的水平。”

　　本周早些時候，澳大利亞總理Scott Morrison再次拒絕承諾該國到2050年實現(xiàn)凈零排放的目標，就像澳大利亞的許多盟友和美國、英國等大型貿(mào)易伙伴已經(jīng)做的那樣。

　　Morrison說：“我不會代表澳大利亞在沒有計劃的目標上簽署空白支票。”他補充說，“空頭支票承諾總是要付出代價的，而且最終總是要支付更高的稅收。”

　　澳大利亞總理表示，在應(yīng)對氣候變化的努力中，澳大利亞的方法是“技術(shù)，而不是稅收”。

　　Clean Energy Investment In Australia Drops

　　Australia saw just three new projects reaching the stage of financial commitment in the second quarter of 2021, the second-lowest tally for quarterly project commitments since early 2017, The Sydney Morning Herald reports, citing data from Australia’s industry group Clean Energy Council.

　　The constant changes in Australia’s energy policies over the past year, as well as its resistance to commit to a net-zero by 2050 target like many industrialized nations, are part of the obstacles that solar and wind power projects in the country face, the Clean Energy Council and opposition politicians tell The Sydney Morning Herald’s Peter Hannam.

　　“Investment in clean energy has fallen to levels not seen for several years as a result of the increased risks facing investors, including from grid connection and network constraints as well as the ongoing unpredictable and unhelpful government policy interventions and market reforms,” Kane Thornton, Chief Executive of the Clean Energy Council, told The Sydney Morning Herald.

　　Earlier this week, Australia’s Prime Minister Scott Morrison declined, once again, to commit the country to a target of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, like many Australian allies and large trade partners such as the U.S. and the UK have already done.

　　“I won’t be signing a blank cheque on behalf of Australians to targets without plans,” Morrison said, adding, “Blank cheque commitments you always end up paying for, and you always end up paying in higher taxes.”

　　Australia’s approach “is technology, not taxes” in its efforts to fight climate change, the prime minister said.
