据CNBC网站4月16日消息：石油巨头荷兰皇家壳牌公司的一位高管表示，电动汽车将在该公司减排努力中发挥关键作用。
壳牌下游主管Huibert Vigeveno称，壳牌计划在全球范围内扩大其电动汽车充电站网络。
“几周前我们宣布，目前在全球拥有6万个充电站。我们将在2025年将这一数字提高到50万，到2030年提高到250万。“
这家石油巨头曾因管道泄漏和石油泄漏等环境问题而面临法律诉讼，如今已加快战略步伐以达成其目标，即到2050年实现净零排放能源企业。
上个月，新加坡能源市场管理局(EMA)和壳牌公司联合向一个由Eigen Energy牵头的财团提供了一笔研究经费。这笔赠款将帮助这家新加坡太阳能公司到2022年开发该国第一批集成智能能源管理解决方案的服务站。
“2019年我们在新加坡建立了第一个电动汽车充电站。现在，我们已经拥有三分之一的充电站网络。” Vigeveno补充说。
在欧洲，该公司已经与电动汽车市场的大型企业展开合作。
今年4月，该公司宣布与电网设备制造商Alfen合作开展一个试点项目，目的是在荷兰的一个加油站测试电池支持的超快速充电系统。初步计划是在全球范围内更广泛地采用这种模式，以缓解大众市场电动汽车采用可能带来的压力。
今年1月，壳牌宣布计划收购英国最大的公共电动汽车充电网络ubitricity。据报道，该公司在该国拥有2700多个充电点。
壳牌还致力于通过减少充电站的充电时间来显著改善客户体验。
壳牌在其网站上表示，目前正在开发智能充电技术，以帮助确保电动汽车通过调整充电时间和充电速度等方式顺利融入电力系统。
同时，Vigeveno称，这家英荷公司将继续推进生物燃料的发展，加大力度减少碳排放。
该公司已经在生物燃料领域拥有非常重要的地位，其Raizen合资企业利用巴西的甘蔗生产低碳燃料。
“Raizen现在占全球生物燃料产量的3％。第一代和第二代生物燃料有更多的机会成为我们价值链的一部分。”

Shell says electric vehicles will be crucial in its efforts to lower carbon emissions
Electric vehicles will play a critical role in Royal Dutch Shell’s efforts to cut emissions, according to a senior executive at the oil giant.
“If you look at the decarbonization opportunities of this mobility sector, EV plays a crucial role,” said Huibert Vigeveno, downstream director at Shell, adding that the company intends to expand its global electric vehicle charging stations network worldwide.
“What we’ve announced a couple of weeks ago is that we have 60,000 charging points in the world right now. We are going to move that to 500,000 by 2025, and 2.5 million by 2030,” he told CNBC’s “Squawk Box Asia” on Friday.
The oil giant, which has faced legal battles for environmental issues such as pipeline leaks and oil spills, has accelerated its strategy to achieve its target to be a net-zero emissions energy business by 2050.
Last month, Singapore’s Energy Market Authority (EMA) and Shell jointly awarded a research grant to a consortium led by Eigen Energy. The grant will help the Singaporean solar firm develop the country’s first series of service stations integrated with smart energy management solutions by 2022.
“Two years ago, in 2019 we had our first EV charging point in Singapore. Now, one third of our network already has it,” Vigeveno added.
In Europe, the company is already partnering with large players in the electric vehicle market.
It announced in April a pilot project with grid equipment maker Alfen to test a battery-backed ultra-fast charging system at a Dutch filling station, in the Netherlands. There are tentative plans to adopt the format more widely worldwide to ease the pressures likely to come with mass-market EV adoption.
In January, Shell announced plans to purchase the owner of the U.K.’s largest public electric vehicle charging network, ubitricity, according to Reuters. The company reportedly has more than 2,700 charge points in the country.
Shell also aims to significantly improve customer experience by cutting down charging times at EV stations.
“I have an electric car myself and if I charge my car at home, it takes hours. Well, that’s not something I want to do as when I’m on the go. So I have to offer it to you in a way that I can recharge it, in 10 to 20 minutes,” said Vigeveno, without providing further details.
Shell said on its website it’s working on intelligent charging technologies to can help ensure the smooth integration of EVs into the electricity system in ways such as adjusting charge times and speed of charge.
Meanwhile, the Anglo-Dutch company will continue to make its push in biofuels as it ramps up efforts to reduce carbon emissions, according to Vigeveno.
He added the company already has a very big position in biofuels with its joint venture in Raizen, which produces low-carbon fuels from sugar cane in Brazil.
“Raizen is now 3% of the global production of biofuels. And I see many more opportunities for first and second generation of biofuels and being part of our value chains,” Vigeveno said.
