原标题：今年上半年可再生能源投资升至创纪录水平

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据能源经济8月4日消息称，今年上半年，投资者向可再生能源投入了比以往任何时候都多的资金，但这一速度远远不足以遏制不断增加的碳排放。

　　根据彭博社的数据，在此期间，多达1740亿美元用于太阳能、海上风能和其他绿色技术和公司。虽然较上年同期增长1.8%，但较前六个月下降了7%。

　　这一小幅增长表明，尽管今年大宗商品价格飙升导致成本上升，但该行业仍在领导应对气候变化的斗争。然而，这远远低于各国和企业在未来几十年达到限制排放目标所需要的水平。

　　BNEF 分析主管 Albert Cheung 表示：“可再生能源投资经受住了全球疫情的影响，相比之下，能源经济的其他领域出现了前所未有的波动。然而，1.8%的同比增长并不是什么值得称道的。如果我们要走上实现全球净零的轨道，就需要立即加速提供资金。”

　　上半年在公开市场上募集的新资金达到创纪录的282亿美元，比去年同期增长了五倍以上，这推动了增长。风险资本和私募股权对可再生能源公司的投资承诺也有所增加。

　　今年上半年，太阳能项目投资增长9%，达到创纪录的789亿美元。

　　然而，风电项目投资下降到580亿美元，与去年同期相比下降了30%以上。

　　Renewable energy investment rose to a record in first half

　　Investors poured more money than ever into renewable energy in the first half of the year, but the pace is far from enough to sufficiently curb increasing carbon emissions.

　　As much as $174 billion was spent on solar, offshore wind and other green technologies and companies in the period, according to data from BloombergNEF. While it’s 1.8% more than a year earlier, the level is 7% below the previous six months.

　　The small increase shows the resilience of the industry leading the fight against climate change despite rising costs because of the surge in commodity prices this year. However, it’s way below what’s needed for nations and companies to reach their targets to limit emissions over the coming decades.

　　“Renewable energy investment has withstood the effects of the global pandemic, in contrast to other sectors of the energy economy where we have seen unprecedented volatility,” said Albert Cheung, head of analysis at BNEF. “However, a 1.8% year-on-year increase is nothing to write home about. An immediate acceleration in funding is needed if we are to get on track for global net zero.”

　　The growth was boosted by a record first half for new money raised on public markets, which hit $28.2 billion, up more than fivefold from the same period last year. Commitments to renewable energy companies by venture capital and private equity also rose.

　　Investment in solar projects was up 9% to a record $78.9 billion in the first half.

　　However, investment in wind projects fell to $58 billion, down more than 30% compared with the same period last year.
