据油价网7月11日消息称，澳大利亚政府低排放技术特别顾问Alan Finkel表示，在澳大利亚加快能源转型的过程中，天然气将发挥重要作用，该国正寻求促进可再生能源的使用，逐步减少煤炭的使用。
澳大利亚目前依赖于许多传统能源。政府的数据显示，煤炭和天然气约占该国发电量的79%。来自风能、太阳能和水力发电的可再生能源提供了澳大利亚剩余21%的电力供应。这包括大型发电机和澳大利亚家庭和企业拥有的小型系统。
政府的顾问Finkel周一在接受彭博电视台采访时表示：“我们追求完美，说彻底摆脱化石燃料，最终我们会做到的。”
Finkel补充说：“但在未来10年、15年、20年，在澳大利亚这样的国家，能够利用天然气来加强太阳能和风能发电，这将使我们能够大规模开发和部署太阳能和风能，比不能使用天然气的情况下更快。”

Natural Gas Will Play A Vital Role In Australia’s Energy Transition
Natural gas will play an important role in Australia’s accelerated energy transition as the country looks to boost renewable energy sources and phase down coal, according to Alan Finkel, Special Adviser to the Australian government on Low Emissions Technology.
Australia currently relies on a lot of conventional energy sources. Coal and natural gas account for around 79 percent of the country’s electricity generation, data from the government shows. Renewable energy from wind, solar, and hydropower provide the remaining 21 percent of Australia’s electricity supply. This includes both large generators and small systems owned by Australian families and businesses.
“There is a pursuit of perfection to say get out of fossil fuels completely, and eventually we will,” the government’s adviser Finkel told Bloomberg TV in an interview on Monday.
“But for the next 10, 15, 20 years, being able to call on natural gas to firm up the solar and wind electricity in a country like Australia will enable us to develop and deploy solar and wind at enormous scale -- more quickly than if we cannot call on natural gas,” Finkel added.
