据能源经济12月20日东京报道，日本大阪燃气周一表示，通过投资新加坡AGP国际控股公司(AG&P)的当地子公司，已进入印度城市燃气分销市场，这是其海外扩张计划的一部分。
为了应对气候变化，印度政府希望到2030年将清洁能源在印度能源结构中的份额从目前的6%提高到15%，因此印度天然气市场的需求将大幅增长。
日本第二大城市燃气供应商大阪燃气公司，计划与日本海外交通与城市发展基础设施投资公司(JOIN)合作，向AG&P的印度子公司投资1.2亿美元。AG&P子公司拥有12个地区8年的独家天然气销售权，以及这些地区25年的基础设施许可证。
大阪燃气称，印度是该公司在亚洲的一个关键增长市场。大阪燃气未透露在该子公司的持股比例。
“我们还希望在印度寻求其他商业机会，包括可再生能源。”大阪燃气公司的高级总经理Katz Sato告诉记者。
大阪燃气已开始进行海外扩张，以实现其2017年设定的长期目标，即到2030年将经常性利润增加两倍，海外利润占总利润的比重将从2017年的约5%增至三分之一。

Japan's Osaka Gas enters India's urban gas distribution
Japan’s Osaka Gas Co said on Monday it has entered India’s urban gas distribution market by investing in the local unit of Singapore-based AGP International Holdings(AG&P) as part of its overseas expansion drive.
Demand in India’s natural gas market is set to surge as the government wants to raise the share of the cleaner fuel in its energy mix to 15% by 2030 from the current 6% to combat climate change.
Osaka Gas, Japan’s second-biggest city gas supplier, plans to invest up to $120 million in the Indian unit of AG&P together with a state-private fund, Japan Overseas Infrastructure Investment Corporation for Transport&Urban Development(JOIN).The AG&P unit has exclusive gas sales rights for eight years for 12 geographic areas, and infrastructure licenses for 25 years in those places.
Osaka Gas, which did not disclose how big a stake it would own in the unit, said India was a key growth market in Asia for the firm.
“We also want to pursue other business opportunities in India, including renewable energy.” Katz Sato, senior general manager at Osaka Gas, told reporters.
The company has embarked on an overseas expansion to achieve its long-term goal, set in 2017,to triple its recurring profits by 2030, with contribution from abroad to account for one-third of the total profit, from about 5% in 2017.
