By

-- トタルエナジーズ(TTE)は金曜日、カザフスタンで総額12億ドルの風力発電・蓄電池プロジェクトを承認したと発表した。このプロジェクトは25年間で100テラワット時の発電量が見込まれる。 トタルエナジーズによると、ミルニー・プロジェクトは、約100万人に再生可能エネルギーによる電力を供給し、発電された電力は2023年にカザフスタン政府と締結した25年間の電力購入契約に基づき販売される。 同社によれば、この開発計画には、150基の風力タービンを備えた1ギガワットの陸上風力発電所と、安定した電力供給を支える600メガワット時の蓄電池システムが含まれる。 トタルエナジーズの子会社であるサフト社が供給するこの蓄電池システムは、送電網の安定性を強化し、カザフスタンの再生可能エネルギー容量拡大を支えると同社は述べている。 トタルエナジーズはこのプロジェクトの60%の株式を保有し、サムルク・エナジーとカズムナイガスがそれぞれ20%ずつ保有する。 同社は、プロジェクトの資金調達構造を支援する国際的な融資機関グループと締結した共通条件協定を通じて資金を確保したと発表した。 融資コンソーシアムには、欧州復興開発銀行、プロパルコ、カザフスタン開発銀行、DEG、ソシエテ・ジェネラル、QNBグループ、中国建設銀行、スタンダードチャータード銀行が含まれる。 トータルエナジーズの再生可能エネルギー担当上級副社長、オリヴィエ・ジュニー氏は、このプロジェクトはカザフスタンが2030年までに電力供給における再生可能エネルギーの割合を15%に引き上げるという計画を支援するものだと述べた。 また、同社によれば、この1GWの風力発電プロジェクトは、マスダール社との50/50合弁事業を通じてカザフスタンを含むアジア9カ国で開発されている、より広範な9GWの再生可能エネルギーポートフォリオにも貢献する。

Asia Biofuels Update: Malaysian Palm Oil Diverges from Crude Oil on Weaker Exports, Stronger Ringgit

Malaysian palm oil futures slipped on Monday, pulling away from crude oil prices, as weaker exports and a stronger local currency weighed on sentiment.Reversing the previous session's gains, the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives' May crude palm oil contract fell 0.66% to 4,487 Malaysian ringgit ($1,134.94) per metric ton. The June contract dropped by 0.96% to 4,521 ringgit/mt in midday trade.Malaysian shipments for the April 1-25 period reportedly declined 15.7% from a month earlier, according to cargo surveyors cited by Trading Economics.A stronger Malaysian ringgit, which rose against the US dollar by 0.28% on Monday, could further pressure exports as it makes them costlier.The recent drop in Malaysian shipments followed a 29.1% year-over-year rise in Q1 exports, as buyers advanced purchases due to the expected surge in shipping costs and as volumes of rival Indonesian cargoes softened due to higher export levies.Indonesia's move to raise its palm-based biodiesel blending to 50% from 40% beginning July 1 could further lift Malaysian exports going forward.The Malaysia Palm Oil Council said Indonesia's B50 program could absorb an additional 3 million metric tons per year of palm oil. Annual domestic consumption in Thailand could also increase by 350,000 metric tons as the country moves to B7 from B5, while demand in Malaysia could rise by 300,000 mt as the government raises its biodiesel blend to B15 from B10.Rising biofuel demand, elevated crude oil prices, and supply risks from the potential development of an El Nino weather trend will support palm oil prices, with the MPOC projecting them at around 4,500 ringgit/mt in the near term."However, further gains are likely to be capped by softer export demand amid inflation and weaker economic growth in key importing countries, alongside rising stocks as palm oil production gradually enters its seasonal peak," the MPOC said.According to Jim Teh, senior palm oil trader at Interband Group of Co., as cited by Bernama, palm oil prices could trade between 4,200 ringgit/mt and 4,300 ringgit/mt this week due to profit taking.
