据油价网5月28日消息称，Wood Mackenzie周四表示，尽管国际能源署（IEA）呼吁，如果世界想要在2050年实现净零排放，就不需要为化石燃料提供新的资金，但亚洲需要对天然气进行投资，以减少对污染更严重的煤炭的依赖。
WoodMac亚太地区能源副主席Gavin Thompson在一份分析报告中写道：“其他许多市场的煤炭需求仍在持续上升，转向天然气被视为实现减排目标的关键。”
上周，国际能源署（IEA）表示，如果想在2050年前实现净零排放，就不需要在石油、天然气和煤炭领域进行任何新的投资，这一建议震惊了能源行业的所有利益相关者。
亚洲可能是“不再投资化石燃料”这一理念的典型代表。在可再生能源增长到足以满足该地区大部分电力需求之前，亚洲将需要更多的天然气来取代燃煤发电能力。在许多国家，包括印度等主要发展中经济体，燃煤发电能力仍然很高。
WoodMac公司Thompson说：“事实上，我们预计，在亚洲一些国家，在可再生能源投资开始增加的同时，天然气更积极地取代煤炭，最有可能实现更快的脱碳。”

WoodMac: Asia Needs To Invest More In Gas To Lower Emissions
Despite the call from the International Energy Agency (IEA) that no new funding for fossil fuels is necessary if the world wants to get on the net-zero 2050 pathway, Asia is the region where investments in gas are necessary to cut its reliance on the more polluting coal, Wood Mackenzie said on Thursday.
“With coal demand continuing to rise across many other markets, switching to natural gas is seen as critical to emission reduction goals,” Gavin Thompson, Vice Chairman, Energy – Asia Pacific at WoodMac, wrote in an analysis.
Last week, the International Energy Agency (IEA) shocked all stakeholders in the energy industry with its suggestion that the world doesn’t need any new investments in oil, gas, and coal beyond what is already approved if it hopes to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
Asia is probably the poster child of the issue with the idea of ‘no investments in fossil fuels ever again.’ Until renewables rise so much as to meet most of the power demand in the region, Asia will need much more natural gas to replace coal-fired generation capacity, which is still high in many countries, including in the major developing economies such as India.
“In fact, in some countries in Asia, we expect that faster decarbonisation is most likely to be achieved through an even greater role for gas to more aggressively displace coal while investment in renewables starts to ramp up,” WoodMac’s Thompson said.
