2024年9月11日,欧盟委员会发布了《能源联盟现状报告2024》。该报告概述了欧盟在建立更可持续、更安全的能源系统方面的进展,重点强调了欧洲绿色协议的实施。这个雄心勃勃的政策框架旨在到2030年将欧盟的温室气体排放量减少至少55%,并确保到2050年实现碳中和经济的转型。报告强调,能源安全、能源效率、可再生能源的转型以及开发清洁能源技术是欧盟战略的关键要素。
On 11 September the European Commission released the State of the Energy Union Report 2024.
It outlines the EU’s progress towards building a more sustainable and secure energy system, emphasizing the implementation of the European Green Deal.
This ambitious policy framework aims to reduce the European Union’s greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030, ensuring the transition to a carbon-neutral economy by 2050.
The report emphasizes energy security, energy efficiency, the transition to renewable energy sources, and the development of clean energy technologies as crucial elements of the EU’s strategy.
能源联盟报告的主要亮点
能源联盟旨在为所有欧盟公民提供可靠、可负担和环保的能源,基于以下五个关键维度:
- 脱碳:到2050年实现净零排放是欧盟的核心目标。欧盟在从化石燃料向可再生能源过渡方面取得了显著进展。太阳能和风能已成为欧洲能源系统的基石,其在能源组合中的份额逐年增加。报告指出,虽然化石燃料的消耗持续下降,但欧盟必须继续专注于增加可再生能源,并促进能源储存解决方案以确保电网稳定。
- 能源效率:能源效率仍然是欧盟总体战略的关键组成部分。报告强调,欧盟致力于减少所有领域的能源消耗,尤其是建筑、交通和工业领域。诸如《能源效率指令》和“翻新浪潮”等项目已带来了可衡量的改善,更多节能住宅和基础设施有助于减少整体排放。
- 能源安全:2024年报告特别强调了能源安全,尤其是考虑到最近的地缘政治发展和冲突。这些事件凸显了欧盟对进口化石燃料的依赖,以及实现能源来源多样化的紧迫性。报告概述了通过加快可再生能源开发、加强液化天然气进口和提高成员国之间的互联互通来减少对俄罗斯天然气依赖的战略。能源安全与欧盟促进可再生能源和多样化能源供应的广泛努力密切相关。
- 内部能源市场:创建一个综合且有竞争力的能源市场仍然是首要任务。欧盟在改善跨境能源流动方面取得了长足进展,从而增强了能源安全,并确保能源市场具有弹性,能够抵御冲击。报告还强调了价格透明度和消费者权利的重要性,确保欧盟公民能够获得负担得起的清洁能源。
- 研究、创新和竞争力:报告强调,创新是能源转型成功的关键。欧盟增加了对清洁能源技术的投资,包括氢能、电池储存以及碳捕集与封存(CCS)。研究和创新的目的旨在提高这些技术的效率、降低成本,并使其能够在各个行业中更广泛地应用。
Key Highlights of the Energy Union Report
The Energy Union aims to provide reliable, affordable, and environmentally sustainable energy for all EU citizens, grounded in five key dimensions:
- Decarbonization: Central to the EU’s goals is achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
The EU’s efforts to transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy have shown significant progress. Solar and wind energy have become the cornerstones of Europe’s energy system, with their share of the energy mix growing annually.
The report stresses that while fossil fuel consumption continues to decline, the EU must remain focused on further increasing renewable energy sources and fostering energy storage solutions to ensure grid stability.
- Energy Efficiency: Energy efficiency remains a critical component of the EU’s overall strategy. The report highlights the EU’s commitment to reducing energy consumption across all sectors, especially in buildings, transportation, and industry.
Programs like the Energy Efficiency Directive and Renovation Wave have led to measurable improvements, with more energy-efficient homes and infrastructure helping to cut overall emissions.
- Energy Security: The 2024 report places significant emphasis on energy security, especially in light of recent geopolitical developments and conflicts.
These events have underscored the EU’s dependence on imported fossil fuels, and the urgent need to diversify energy sources. The report outlines strategies to reduce dependency on Russian gas by accelerating renewable energy development, enhancing LNG imports, and increasing interconnectivity among member states. Energy security is intrinsically linked to the EU’s broader efforts to promote renewable energy and diversify its energy supply.
- Internal Energy Market: The creation of an integrated and competitive energy market remains a top priority.
The EU has made strides in improving cross-border energy flows, thus enhancing energy security and ensuring that the energy market is resilient and able to withstand shocks. The report also emphasizes the importance of price transparency and consumer rights, ensuring that EU citizens have access to affordable and clean energy.
- Research, Innovation, and Competitiveness: The report stresses that innovation is key to the success of the energy transition.
The EU has increased its investment in clean energy technologies, including hydrogen, battery storage, and carbon capture and storage (CCS). Research and innovation efforts are geared towards improving the efficiency of these technologies, reducing costs, and making them more scalable across sectors.

对全球合作伙伴的影响与绿色能源企业的机会
欧盟的能源转型为与全球合作伙伴合作提供了重大机会,许多合作伙伴与欧盟在气候目标上有共同之处。欧盟向清洁能源的转变为从事可再生能源系统、智能电网、低碳足迹建筑材料与技术开发的公司提供了广阔的商业前景。例如,仲欧脱碳科技(CNEUCN)就站在促进专注于绿色能源生产和环保技术的公司之间合作的前沿。
- 氢能经济
氢能是《能源联盟报告》中的另一个重点领域。欧盟认为清洁氢能是能源转型的重要组成部分,尤其是对于钢铁和水泥等难以脱碳的行业。开发绿色氢能——利用可再生能源生产的氢——为中欧之间的合作提供了独特的机遇。中国对氢能技术的不断投资,加上欧洲在可再生能源生产方面的专业知识,为推动该领域的合资企业和技术交流创造了一个理想的环境。
- 工业脱碳与建筑材料
欧盟还专注于工业的脱碳,该领域仍是温室气体排放的主要来源之一。人们对既节能又环保的先进材料的兴趣日益增加。“翻新浪潮”倡议旨在提高建筑的能源效率,预计将推动高性能隔热材料、节能窗户和可持续混凝土替代品等绿色建筑材料的需求。专门生产这些材料的外国公司可以进入欧盟市场,而欧盟公司则可以提供设计专业知识和法规合规支持。
Impacts on Global Partnerships and Opportunities for Green Energy Firms
The EU’s energy transition presents significant opportunities for collaboration with global partners, which shares many of the EU’s climate goals.
The EU’s shift to clean energy offers vast business prospects for companies involved in the development of renewable energy systems, smart grid and construction materials and technologies with low carbon footprint.
China-Europe Carbon Neutral (CNEUCN), for instance, stands at the forefront of facilitating partnerships between companies that focus on green energy production and environmental technologies.
- Hydrogen Economy
Hydrogen is another area of focus in the Energy Union Report. The EU sees clean hydrogen as a vital component of its energy transition, particularly for industries that are difficult to decarbonize, such as steel and cement production. The development of green hydrogen—hydrogen produced using renewable energy—presents a unique opportunity for collaboration between China and Europe. China’s growing investment in hydrogen technologies, combined with Europe’s expertise in renewable energy production, creates an ideal environment for joint ventures and technological exchanges in this sector.
- Decarbonizing Industry and Building Materials
The EU is also focusing on decarbonizing its industrial sector, which remains one of the largest sources of emissions. There is growing interest in the use of advanced materials that are both energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.
The Renovation Wave initiative, which seeks to improve the energy efficiency of buildings, is expected to drive demand for green building materials such as high-performance insulation, energy-efficient windows, and sustainable concrete alternatives. Foreign companies specializing in these materials can enter the European market, while European firms can provide design expertise and regulatory compliance support.
