據世界石油網站6月24日消息 信實工業有限公司經營著世界上最大的原油精煉廠，該公司計劃在三年內投資7500億盧比（101 億美元）用于清潔能源，為全球投資者、消費者和政府尋求可持續增長的關鍵轉型鋪平道路。
該公司董事長穆克什·安巴尼周四對股東表示，將在印度西部古吉拉特邦建立四家“超級工廠”，投資超過6000億盧比，并在 價值鏈和其他伙伴關系方面再投資1500億盧比。
他說，到2030年，這家印度最有價值的公司還將建立并啟用至少100吉瓦的太陽能發電能力，主要通過屋頂安裝和村莊的非集中化運營。
信實的重心轉向更清潔、更環保的傳統業務，突顯了能源行業的新世界秩序。埃克森美孚等全球巨頭正面臨削減碳排放的壓力 ，而印度第二大富豪喬塔姆?阿達尼等本土大亨則在環保舉措上加倍努力，并引發股市反彈。綠色議程在印度也有更廣泛的政 策支持，是莫迪領導的政府的首要任務之一。
安巴尼在講話中說：“我們將把我們的傳統業務轉變為可持續、循環和凈零碳材料業務，這將在幾十年內提供不斷增長的回報 。為此，我們將重新調整現有資產的用途，以延長它們的經濟壽命和盈利能力?！?/p>
信實工業去年為自己設定了一個目標，即到2035年成為一家凈零碳公司，與包括BP和殼牌在內的許多全球同行自設的2050年減排目標相比，這一期限更短。安巴尼的集團今年2月購買了第一批碳中和原油，并表示正在尋找更多此類合作伙伴。
印度政府計劃到2030年將其可再生能源產能擴大近5倍，達到450吉瓦，以減少對煤炭的依賴。

India’s Reliance Industries plans $10 billion clean energy investment
(Bloomberg) --Reliance Industries Ltd., which operates the world’s largest crude oil refining complex, plans to invest 750 billion rupees ($10.1 billion) in clean energy over three years, paving way for a crucial transformation as investors, consumers and governments world over seek sustainable growth.
The refining-to-retail conglomerate will create four “giga factories” in the western Indian state of Gujarat, investing over 600 billion rupees, and another 150 billion rupees in value chain and other partnerships, Chairman Mukesh Ambani told shareholders on Thursday.
India’s most valuable company will also “establish and enable” at least 100 gigawatts of solar power capacity by 2030, mostly through rooftop installations and de-centralized operations in villages, he said.
Reliance’s pivot toward a cleaner, greener version of its legacy businesses underscores the new world order for the energy sector. Global giants such as Exxon Mobil Corp. are under pressure to pare their carbon footprint while local rival tycoons including India’s second-richest man, Gautam Adani, are doubling down on their green initiatives and stoking a stock rally. The green agenda also has the broader policy backing in India and is one of the top priorities for the Narendra Modi-led government.
“We will transform our legacy business into sustainable, circular and net-zero carbon materials business. One that will provide growing returns over several decades,” Ambani said in his speech. “And we will do this by re-purposing our existing assets to extend their economic life and earning capacity.”
Reliance last year set itself a target of becoming a net-zero carbon company by 2035 - a shorter time frame compared to the self-imposed 2050 cut-off of many of its global peers including BP Plc. and Royal Dutch Shell Plc. Ambani’s group bought its first cargo of carbon-neutral crude oil in February and said it was looking for more such partnerships.
India’s government plans to expand its renewable energy capacity nearly five-fold to 450 gigawatts by 2030, as the nation aims to reduce its dependence on coal.
