波黑或将上调煤价以应对欧盟碳边境税机制冲击
Shang Wu Bu Wang Zhan· 2025-11-07 14:03
报告指出,CBAM将于2026年1月1日全面实施。届时,欧盟将对从境外进口的高碳排放产品征收额外费 用,包括电力进口。这意味着使用煤炭、石油和天然气发电的国家(如波黑、塞尔维亚、黑山等)在向 欧盟出口电力时将面临成本飙升。受此影响,波黑电力出口收入预计将明显下降。 能源专家尼哈德·哈尔巴什(Nihad Harba )表示,波黑超过70%的出口面向欧盟市场,一旦碳税机制实 施,欧盟将可能转向"绿色能源"供应国,而波黑出口电力的竞争力将削弱,甚至可能失去部分出口市 场。他警告称,这种局面或将导致国内电力供应趋紧、电价上升,进而推高煤炭价格。专家建议,波黑 政府不应被动等待,应尽快建立本国碳排放定价体系、扩大可再生能源投资,以减轻CBAM带来的冲 击。(驻波黑使馆经商处) 波黑媒体Energetika 11月5日报道。环保组织"中东欧银行监管网络"(CEE Bankwatch Network)最新报 告指出,如果西巴尔干国家(包括波黑)尽快建立本国煤炭定价体系,可部分抵消欧盟碳关税 (CBAM)的影响,每年有望为本地区创造高达42亿欧元的财政收入,用于支持可持续能源转型。 ...

批发电价下跌账单却仍上涨!能源转型成本成英国家庭“不可承受之重”
智通财经网· 2025-11-07 07:17
智通财经APP获悉,英国家庭正陷入一种新型能源危机——尽管批发电力和天然气价格持续下跌,家庭 能源账单却仍在上涨。这种日益扩大的差距正加剧英国政府面临的政治压力。当局既要为清洁能源转型 筹集数十亿英镑资金,又要试图说服选民这项转型将降低用电成本。随着财政大臣雷切尔·里夫斯着手 编制本月晚些时候公布的预算案(外界普遍预期将有多项增税措施),部长级官员们正面临巨大压力,需 要向公众解释为何在全球能源市场趋缓的背景下,消费者仍需承担更高费用。 能源咨询公司Cornwall Insight Ltd.的数据显示,由于电网费用和政策成本的提高,英国国内能源费用将 在明年4月份再次攀升,而英国国内能源费用本就已经是欧洲最贵的之一。但与此同时,同期英国批发 能源价格预计将出现下降。 与欧洲许多其他国家一样,英国政府认为,从长远来看,快速建设更便宜的可再生能源将降低电费。在 2022年俄乌冲突爆发导致天然气价格飙升后,这一观点得到了强化。然而,将以天然气为基础的系统转 变为以可再生能源为主导的系统的前期成本,如今正越来越多地由英国家庭承担。 非批发成本推高英国家庭能源账单 Cornwall Insight首席顾问Craig L ...

Summary of Key Points from the Conference Call Industry Overview - The global hydrogen energy market is accelerating, with active development strategies and goals set by Europe, Japan, South Korea, and the United States. China is expected to promote 30,000 fuel cell vehicles by the end of the year, with hydrogen energy included in the National Energy Law for the first time [2][4][3]. Core Insights and Arguments - **Fuel Cell Technology**: Key innovations focus on material innovation and system optimization. Xiongtao Co. has pioneered the "paper electric stack" technology, which combines high density and corrosion resistance, with global patents applied. The cost of fuel cell systems is expected to drop below 2,000 RMB per kWh by the end of the year, with a power density increase of 35%-50% [2][5]. - **Commercialization Challenges**: Major constraints include insufficient refueling infrastructure, an incomplete clean supply system, and high hydrogen production costs. There is a need to simultaneously advance the refueling station network, clean supply system, and pipeline distribution [2][7]. - **Government Support**: Various regions in China have introduced supportive policies, such as free highway access for fuel cell vehicles, which significantly reduces operational costs [4][3]. Additional Important Content - **Market Demand**: The demand for fuel cells is growing significantly in distributed generation, microgrids, and data centers, with a combined heat and power efficiency of up to 80%. The demand for green methanol is expected to surge to several million tons over the next five years due to the expansion of wind and solar hydrogen production [3][12][14]. - **Xiongtao's Strategic Initiatives**: The company is focusing on reducing operational costs in heavy-duty trucks through a "lightweight combination" strategy and is actively participating in local government ecological projects. They are also building a national refueling network and exploring reversible stack technology to create a differentiated competitive advantage [8][9]. - **Global Hydrogen Applications**: Hydrogen energy is being promoted in special vehicles like light trucks and buses, with slower adoption in passenger vehicles due to the challenges of refueling infrastructure. The maritime and aviation sectors are also advancing hydrogen fuel demonstration projects [10][11]. - **Investment Opportunities**: Despite underwhelming fuel cell demonstration orders in the first half of 2025, the demand for green methanol is expected to explode, leading to increased interest from listed companies in this sector. The capital market is showing volatility in related ETF products, indicating potential investment opportunities [15]. Conclusion - The hydrogen energy sector is poised for significant growth, driven by technological advancements, government support, and increasing market demand. However, challenges remain in infrastructure and cost, necessitating coordinated efforts across the industry to achieve commercialization and scalability.
