中国石化新闻网讯 据油气新闻网2月25日报道，全球清洁能源巨头马斯达尔(Masdar)正通过对全球最大地热公司之一Pertamina地热能(PGE)的战略投资，进军地热能领域。
该公司在一份声明中表示，该投资标志着马斯达尔进入了全球第二大地热能源市场。
地热能利用地核内产生的热量来提供持续的能源，而不像太阳能或风能那样在本质上是间歇性的。地热的能源工厂也有高容量系数，这意味着它们可以在最大功率下运行更长的时间。
其指出，这些属性意味着地热能可能在清洁能源转型中发挥重要作用，帮助地热活动高度集中的国家减少碳排放。
阿联酋工业和先进技术部长兼Masdar主席 Sultan Al Jaber博士表示，实现《巴黎协定》规定的1.5摄氏度的目标，将要求人类充分利用所有低碳能源，包括目前未得到充分利用的地热等能源。通过对PGE的投资，马斯达尔展示了其对印度尼西亚能源转型的持续承诺，并支持即将举行的COP28会议的主要重点领域之一，即在减少排放的同时提供切实可行的能源安全解决方案。
PGE首席执行官Ahmad Yuniarto表示：“我们期待与马斯达尔合作，在这些领域补充并进一步发展我们的能力，成为世界级的绿色能源公司，拥有全球最大的地热容量。我们努力在未来五年内开发600兆瓦的额外装机容量，以支持印度尼西亚的可再生能源组合。”
Masdar首席执行官Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi指出，其对PGE的战略投资将补充该集团在印度尼西亚的巨大影响力。
他表示，印度尼西亚的目标是到2030年将其地热装机容量从2022年的2.8吉瓦增加到6.2吉瓦。并补充道，该国政府的目标是到2060年实现净零排放，到2023年可再生能源占能源结构的23%。他补充道，过去40年来，PGE一直在印尼运营地热设施，其投资组合容量超过1.87吉瓦。

Masdar announces strategic investment in Indonesia's Pertamina
Masdar, a global clean energy powerhouse, is entering the geothermal energy sector, through a strategic investment in Pertamina Geothermal Energy (PGE),>The investment marks Masdar’s entry into geothermal energy, in the second-largest geothermal market in the world, said the company in a statement.
Geothermal energy harnesses the heat generated within the Earth’s core to provide a constant energy source, unlike solar or wind, which are intermittent in nature. Its energy plants also have high-capacity factors, meaning they can run at maximum power for longer periods.
These attributes mean geothermal energy could potentially play a significant role in the clean energy transition, helping nations with a high concentration of geothermal activity to reduce carbon emissions, it stated.
Dr Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, and Chairman, Masdar, said: "Achieving the 1.5C target set out in the Paris Accords will require humanity to leverage all sources of low-carbon energy, including sources that are currently under-utilized, like geothermal."
"Through its investment in PGE, Masdar is demonstrating its continuing commitment to Indonesia’s energy transition and its support of>PGE Chief Executive Officer Ahmad Yuniarto said: "We look forward to working with Masdar in the areas which complement and grow further our capabilities to be a world class green energy company, with the largest geothermal capacity globally. We endeavor to develop 600 megawatts (MW) in additional installed capacity over the next five years to support Indonesia’s renewable energy mix.”
Masdar CEO Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi pointed out that its strategic investment in PGE will complement the group's strong footprint in Indonesia.
Indonesia, he stated, has a goal of increasing its installed geothermal capacity from 2.8 gigawatts (GW) in 2022 to 6.2 GW by 2030.
The government is targeting net-zero emissions by 2060 and having renewables provide 23 percent of the energy mix by 2023. PGE has been operating geothermal facilities in Indonesia for the last 40 years, with a portfolio capacity exceeding 1.87 GW, he added.
