据煤炭新闻2021年4月22日伦敦报道,由于欧盟就修订的2030年减排目标达成非正式协议以后,市场上的乐观情绪持续高涨,欧盟碳排放限额价格在4月22日创下了历史新高,每吨超过了47欧元。
4月22日,ICE欧洲期货交易所2021年12月交割的欧盟备抵期货合约上涨至47.36欧元/吨(56.89美元/吨)的盘中高点,而4月21日收盘时为45.91欧元/吨,涨幅为1.45欧元/吨或3.2%。
欧洲议会和欧洲理事会4月21日达成了一项非正式协议,将欧盟2030年的减排目标至少提高到比1990年水平低55%的水平,而此前的目标是40%。
更严格的目标预计将转化为更严格的年度碳排放上限,直至2030年,从而减少发电厂、工厂和航空公司运营商的碳限额供应。
更高的碳价格预计还将推动发电的经济效益,因为它将对高排放燃煤发电厂的利润率构成进一步压力。
标准普尔全球普氏能源分析公司欧洲电力分析经理格伦•瑞克森表示,“2021年到目前为止,煤炭和天然气发电量相对较高,主要是由于风力比去年减弱等天气因素。

EU carbon prices hit all-time high above Eur47/mt
EU carbon allowance prices hit an all-time high of over Eur47/mt April 22 as bullish mood continued in the market in the wake of the EU's informal agreement on a revamped 2030 emissions reduction goal.
EU Allowance futures contracts for December 2021 delivery on the ICE Futures Europe exchange rallied to an intra-day high of Eur47.36/mt ($56.89/mt) April 22, compared with Eur45.91/mt at the close April 21 -- a gain of Eur1.45/mt or 3.2%.
The gains came after the European Parliament and Council reached an informal agreement April 21 to raise the EU's 2030 emissions reduction target to at least 55% below 1990 levels, compared with the previous 40% goal.
The tougher targets are expected to translate into tighter annual carbon caps out to 2030, reducing the supply of carbon allowances for the operators of power plants, factories and airlines.
The higher carbon prices are also expected to drive the economics of electricity generation by putting further pressure on profit margins from emissions-intensive coal-fired power plants.
"Coal and gas generation has been relatively high so far in 2021, primarily due to weather factors including lower wind vs last year," said Glenn Rickson, manager of European power analysis at S&P Global Platts Analytics.
