-- 智庫「交通與環境」(Transport & Environment)週二表示,儘管燃油成本不斷上漲,歐洲仍應抵制削弱其排放交易體系和其他航空脫碳舉措,因為這將使化石燃料在航空業的依賴時間更長。 智庫指出,在伊朗戰爭之後,一些業內人士正在遊說反對排放交易體系和「再燃料歐盟」(ReFuelEU)計劃,以降低燃料價格上漲帶來的成本。 「交通與環境」認為,這些方案是實現能源獨立與安全的「重要藍圖」。該智庫表示:“現在削弱這些立法只會加深航空業對全球石油衝擊的依賴。” 歐盟約95%的原油依賴進口,其航空燃油則混合使用本地提煉和進口兩種形式,其中大部分進口燃油來自中東。 智庫也指出,歐盟約30%的航空燃油供應,無論是精煉的還是原油,都需要經過現已關閉的霍爾木茲海峽。 航空公司因需繞過不安全空域而被迫更改航線,燃油短缺導致大量航班取消,燃油成本也隨之飆升。報告指出,永續航空燃料(SAF)的價格也在飛漲。 交通與環境組織表示,減少航班數量可以在短期內顯著降低航空業對全球石油需求的「巨大」貢獻,並稱可持續航空燃料是保障長期能源安全的「戰略選擇」。 交通與環境組織認為,不應削弱永續航空燃料的強制性要求,而應加強這些要求,以確保歐洲長期的能源獨立。
