???? 據今日油價2月5日報道，法國石油天然氣超級巨頭道達爾正在德克薩斯州購買4個大型太陽能發電項目加上電池儲能資產，計劃用這些項目滿足其在美國所有工業用地的電力需求。

????道達爾一直在擴大其可再生能源投資組合，并在最近幾個月簽署了大量綠色能源購電協議（PPA），目前正從SunChase power和私人能源投資公司MAP RE/ES手中購買四個太陽能項目，總發電量為2.2吉瓦加上600兆瓦的電池儲能資產。道達爾表示，所有項目都位于休斯頓附近電力需求旺盛的工業區，每個項目都有電池儲能系統（BESS），預計將在2023年至2024年期間上線。

????這家石油巨頭將承諾從太陽能和儲能投資組合中獲得1吉瓦的企業購電協議，以覆蓋其在美國運營的工業基地的所有電力消耗，包括亞瑟港、拉波特和卡維爾。

????道達爾董事長兼首席執行官Patrick Pouyanné在一份聲明中表示:“通過此次收購，道達爾目前正在美國發展近4吉瓦的可再生能源發電能力，從而有助于我們在2025年達到近35吉瓦的可再生能源發電能力目標。”

????截至2020年底，道達爾在全球的總發電能力約為12吉瓦，其中包括近7吉瓦的可再生能源。

????彭博社研究顯示，道達爾是2020年全球第二大清潔能源買家，僅次于亞馬遜，簽署了3吉瓦的購電協議。

????據彭博社數據顯示，自去年石油巨頭開始宣布凈零目標，并承諾大幅增加對可再生能源的投資以來，道達爾收購了歐洲最大的可再生能源投資組合。自2020年9月宣布新戰略和凈零目標以來，道達爾已購買了多達8.8 吉瓦的可再生能源發電產能，包括在運營、建設或開發階段的項目。

????Oil Major Total Buys Texas Solar Projects

????France’s oil and gas supermajor Total is buying four large-scale solar power projects plus battery storage assets in Texas, with which it plans to meet the electricity demand of all its industrial sites in the United States, including the Port Arthur refining and petrochemicals platform and La Porte and Carville petrochemical sites.

????The French oil major, which has been boosting its renewable electricity portfolio and has been signing lots of power purchase agreements (PPAs) for green energy in recent months, is buying the four solar projects of a total of 2.2 gigawatts (GW) plus 600 MW of battery storage assets from SunChase Power and private energy investment firm MAP RE/ES. All projects, each with co-located battery energy storage systems (BESS), are in industrial areas near Houston with high electricity demand and are expected to come online between 2023 and 2024, Total said on Friday.

????The oil major will commit to a 1-GW corporate PPA sourced from this solar power and energy storage portfolio to cover all the electricity consumption of its operated industrial sites in the U.S., including those in Port Arthur, La Porte, and Carville.

????“With this latest acquisition, Total is now developing close to 4 GW of renewable power capacity in the U.S., thus contributing to our objective to reach close to 35 GW of renewable generation capacity by 2025,” Total’s chairman and chief executive Patrick Pouyanné said in a statement.

????At the end of 2020, Total’s gross power generation capacity worldwide was around 12 GW, including nearly 7 GW of renewable energy.

????Total was the second-largest corporate buyer of clean energy globally in 2020, after Amazon, research by BloombergNEF (BNEF) showed last month. The French oil and gas major Total signed 3 GW of PPAs last year.

????Total has acquired the largest renewable energy portfolio among European oil supermajors since Big Oil started announcing last year net-zero targets and pledging significantly increased investments in renewables, according to Bloomberg data. Since announcing its new strategy and net-zero goals in September 2020, Total has bought as much as 8.8 GW of renewable electricity capacity, either operational or in construction or development phases.
