供需缺口是铂金价格大涨的重要支撑。全球铂金产量高度集中，约70%的铂金产自南非，不过该国矿山 因长期投资不足、电力供应短缺、基础设施老化以及极端天气影响，产量严重受限。世界铂金投资协会 (WPIC)的数据显示，2025年第一季度全球铂金总供应量为45.3吨，同比下降10%，预计2025年全年缺口 高达约20吨。 本轮铂金价格的史诗级上涨并非单一因素主导，而是工业需求爆发预期、供需缺口支撑与金融属性助推 的"三重共振"结果。 工业需求构成铂金价格大涨的核心基石。随着全球能源转型加速推进，氢能产业发展为铂金需求提供了 强大支撑。铂金作为质子交换膜电解槽和燃料电池的关键催化剂，在制氢、储氢和用氢全产业链中发挥 着不可替代的作用。随着各国氢能战略的落地实施，相关领域对铂金的需求呈现快速扩容态势。根据香 橙会研究院的预测，到2030年，中国氢能领域的铂族金属使用量将达到近8吨，其中铂仍然将是主要使 用材料。与此同时，汽车工业的持续复苏也为铂金需求提供了稳定支撑，燃油车催化剂铂载量的提升与 轻型车产量的回升共同推动了铂金工业需求的增长。 金融属性则起到了放大效应。在美联储降息预期升温、全球流动性宽松的背景下，黄金价格持续 ...
