德国制造业面临能源供应中断和成本上升压力，导致本土生产效率降低。 这种情况源于2022年以来地缘政治因素影响下的能源转型，俄罗斯天然气供应减少后，德国工业电价上 涨超过一倍。 欧洲整体能源政策调整，进一步推高制造业运营费用。到2025年，德国制造业产出同比下降约2%，破 产企业数量达到2.4万家左右，创下近年高点。 相比之下，中国作为全球制造业中心，提供稳定供应链和较低能源成本，吸引德国企业转移产能。这种 迁移不是突发事件，而是长期积累的结果，反映出全球产业分工变化。 德国企业选择中国布局，主要因为本土竞争力削弱。能源费用占制造业成本比例从原来的10%上升到 20%以上，影响汽车和机械行业出口。 2025年德国对欧盟以外地区出口下滑，部分订单转向亚洲市场。中国市场规模巨大，消费需求支撑德国 产品本地化生产。 相比中国煤炭和可再生能源结合的供应体系，德国能源网络重建需投资数千亿欧元，短期内难以恢复。 制造业企业通过迁移分散风险，2025年德国对华直接投资额超过50亿欧元，同比增长约2%。这表明迁 移不是短期应对，而是战略调整，以适应全球技术迭代。 中国优势在于产业链一体化。 从原材料采购到成品出口，中国体系覆盖 ...
