IEA认为全球石油需求不会在未来20年达到峰值

中国石化新闻网讯 据道琼斯巴黎2月21日消息，国际能源署(IEA)署长比罗尔周三表示，该机构认为全球石油需求不会在未来20年达到峰值。此前，英国石油巨头英国石油公司(BP)周二预测全球原油需求或在未来20年达到峰值，因太阳能等可再生能源将以快于预期的速度在全球能源构成中抢占更大份额。但是比罗尔在伦敦的国际石油周会议上表示：“我们认为石油需求不会达到峰值，这与一些公司的预期不同。虽然到2040年电动汽车使用量将增加，但仍然只会占据市场少数份额，卡车、航空和石化将推动石油需求增长。”

IEA Doesn't See Oil Demand Peaking in Next 2 Decades

The International Energy Agency does not see global demand for oil peaking in the coming two decades, its executive director said Wednesday. The remarks come after British oil giant BP PLC predicted Tuesay that demand for crude oil could peak in the next two decades, as renewables like solar power surge faster than expected. But speaking at the IP Week conference in London, Fatih Birol, head of the IEA, said: "we don't see a peak in oil demand unlike what some companies say." While the use of electric cars will increase by 2040, it will remain a minority and "demand will grow because of trucks, jets and petrochemical," he said.
