据能源新闻2020年6月9日布鲁塞尔报道，据一位高级官员透露，欧盟委员会将在7月底发起首个年度10亿欧元(11亿美元)的倡议，为大规模可再生能源、氢能、能源存储和碳捕获和存储/使用（CCS）项目提供资金。

欧盟的目标是让企业现在就投资低碳技术，以实现其2050年前达到气候中性的目标。

这笔资金将来自欧盟的创新基金，后者将在2030年底前通过出售4.5亿欧元的欧盟排放交易系统配额获得这笔资金。按照欧盟目前的碳价格，该基金在10年内的预算约为100亿欧元。

欧盟气候行动部门创新金融部门负责人Christian Holzleitner在6月5日举行的在线信息会上表示：“我们希望启动氢能源经济。”

他说：“我们想成为世界上第一个建立用于工业，用于难以减少行业的碳捕获和储存或使用。”这些难以减少行业包括水泥、钢铁和化工。

欧盟还希望支持创新的可再生能源，如海上风能、海洋能源、地热、生物燃料和绿色氢。

与目前的技术相比，成功的创新项目能够在长达10年的时间内获得高达60%的额外资本和运营成本。

Holzleitner称，考虑到创新项目的碳减排成本约为80-90欧元/吨二氧化碳，而目前欧盟的碳价格约为20-25欧元/吨二氧化碳，欧盟此举旨在缩小投资差距。

EU plans Eur1 billion call for renewables, hydrogen, CCS projects

The European Commission will open its first annual Eur1 billion ($1.1 billion) call to fund large-scale renewables, clean hydrogen, energy storage, and carbon capture and storage/use projects by the end of July, according to a senior official.

The goal is to get companies to invest now in the low-carbon technologies needed for the EU to achieve its goal of being climate neutral by 2050.

The money comes from the EU's Innovation Fund, which is funded until 2030 by selling 450 million EU Emissions Trading System allowances. It has a budget of around Eur10 billion over 10 years at current EU carbon prices.

"We want to kick-start the hydrogen economy," Christian Holzleitner, head of the EC's innovation finance unit in its climate action department, said in an align="justify">"We want to be the first in the world to establish carbon capture and storage or use for industry, for hard-to-abate sectors," he said. These include cement, steel and chemicals.

The EC also wants to support innovative renewables, such as offshore wind, ocean energy, geothermal, biofuels and green hydrogen.

Successful innovative projects can receive up to 60% of their additional capital and operating costs compared with current technology for up to 10 years.

This is about closing some of the investment gap given that innovative projects' carbon abatement costs start around Eur80-90/mt CO2 and current EU carbon prices are around Eur20-25/mt CO2, Holzleitner said.
