中国石化新闻网讯 据Trend新闻社12月30日消息称，Trend援引欧洲天然气协会秘书长James Watson在欧洲天然气行业社会对话上的发言称，未来天然气行业的就业岗位可能增加到60万个左右。 他说：“我们目前正在使用DNV GL合作进行一项关于天然气未来的大规模研究，该研究正在绘制天然气到2050年实现碳中和的可能性，同时也在关注一些经济影响，包括对就业的影响。这项研究还没有最后定稿，所以我今天不能给出确切的数字，但是初步估计显示，如果我们利用沼气和氢气，天然气行业的就业机会可以从目前的大约40万个增加到未来的大约60万个。” Watson还指出，绿色协议将寻求为2050年设定一个碳中和目标，并为能源转型提供资金。 Eurogas秘书长指出：“新的政策举措必须考虑到天然气及其实现脱碳目标的潜力。例如，如果决定重新设定2030年的目标，并将目标提高到50%或55%，那么天然气将需要从高污染的替代方案转变，并平衡太阳能和风能等间歇性的可再生能源。” Watson认为，这一时期对于可再生和脱碳气体的大规模开发也至关重要。 他补充道：“要做到这一点，需要鼓励和计划逐步引入新的气体—通过在欧盟层面设定目标，并提供资金鼓励在成员国部署。欧洲委员会认识到，为了实现2018年设定的碳中性长期目标，到2050年仍将需要使用天然气，因此我们必须抓住这个机会。” 欧洲绿色协议是一项雄心勃勃的计划，旨在向零温室气体排放过渡，并在这一过程中改变欧洲。 它涉及每年5%的GDP投资在基础设施、农业和工业，创造数百万新的就业机会，结束紧缩的时代——所有这些都不需要增加税收。 曹海斌 摘译自 Trend 原文如下： Eurogas: Employment in the gas sector can increase to around 600K jobs in future Employment in the gas sector can increase to around 600,000 jobs in the future, Trend reports citing James Watson, Eurogas Secretary General at the European Sectoral Social Dialogue for the Gas Sector. "We are currently undertaking a large-scale study on the future of gas with DNV GL, this is plotting the possibilities of gas to deliver carbon neutrality by 2050 while also looking at some economic impacts, including on employment. The study is not finalized so I cannot give precise figures today, but the first estimates suggest that employment in the gas sector can increase from around 400,000 jobs today to around 600,000 jobs in the future if we utilize biogas and hydrogen," he said. Further, Watson pointed out that the Green Deal will seek to set a carbon neutrality target for 2050 as well as provide financing for a just transition. "It will be important that the new policy initiatives take account of gas and its potential to deliver on decarbonisation targets. For example, if the decision is made to re-open the 2030 targets and increase ambition to 50 or 55 percent then natural gas will be needed to deliver a switch from higher polluting alternatives and to balance intermittent renewable energy such as solar and wind," noted Eurogas secretary general. Watson believes that this period will also be crucial to begin the large-scale development of renewable and decarbonized gas. "To do this a phase-in of the new gases will need to be encouraged and planned – through setting targets at the EU level and also through providing financing to incentivise the deployment in the Member States. The European Commission recognised that gas would still be needed in 2050 to achieve carbon neutrality in its 2018 Long Term Strategy, so let’s make sure that we seize this opportunity," he added. The Green New Deal for Europe is an ambitious plan to transition to zero greenhouse gas emissions and transform Europe in the process. It involves an annual investment of 5 percent of GDP in infrastructure, agriculture, and industry, creating millions of new jobs and ending the era of austerity — all without raising your taxes.
