据油气新闻网6月5日报道，德国正在启动一项计划，将为面临巨大能源成本的企业提供数百亿欧元资金，以帮助其面临挑战的工业部门向碳中和生产技术转变。

由于原材料、能源和劳动力成本高昂，欧洲工业正面临压力，而其他地区(尤其是美国)正通过提供丰厚补贴，将企业从欧洲大陆吸引过来。

所谓的气候保护合同是德国应对这些挑战的主要支柱，希望财政支持可以帮助钢铁、水泥、造纸和化学品制造商实现生产的脱碳。

据经济部周一表示，作为这一过程的一部分，企业将能够申请补助。政府表示，在15年的时间里，补助总额将达到数十亿欧元。

经济部长罗伯特·哈贝克（Robert Habeck）在概述了该计划的细节后对记者表示，我们正处于一个长期衰退的时期，在一个极具挑战性的经济时期。

他表示，“尽管从美国到亚洲等世界其他地区都在提供投资激励措施，但在预算和控制债务方面，德国有更严格的要求。然而，在这个阶段不提供投资激励和投资冲动是不对的。我们注意到欧洲和德国在投资和创新方面的疲软”。

他称，在拍卖程序开始之前，企业有两个月的时间表达对该计划的意向，该计划旨在实现德国到2045年实现碳中和的承诺。并补充道，出价最低的将胜出。

每年排放1万吨或以上二氧化碳的公司将有资格参与拍卖过程，这实际上为活跃在欧洲最大经济体的数千家中型公司打开了大门。

Germany launches multibillion-euro decarbonisation scheme

Germany is launching a programme that will make available tens of billions of euros for firms facing substantial energy costs, in a bid to help its challenged industrial sector fund a shift towards carbon-neutral production techniques.

European industry is facing pressure due to high costs for raw materials, energy and labour, while other regions, most notably the US, are luring companies away from the continent by offering lavish subsides.

The so-called climate protection contracts are a major pillar of Germany's response to these challenges, hoping financial support can help makers of steel, cement, paper, and chemicals to decarbonise their production.

As part of the process, companies will be able to apply for support payments, which the government said will be a mid double-digit billion euro amount overall over a 15-year period, the economy ministry said on Monday.

"We are in a period of prolonged recession, in an extremely challenging period economically," Economy Minister Robert Habeck told journalists after outlining details of the scheme.

He said that while other parts of the world, ranging from the US to Asia, were offering investment incentives, Germany was subject to stricter requirements when it comes to budget and keeping debt under control.

"Nevertheless, it can't be right to not provide investment incentives and investment impulses in this phase. We're rather observing a weakness in investment and in innovation in Europe and in Germany."

Companies have two months to express interest in the scheme, aimed at fulfilling Germany's pledge to become carbon neutral by 2045, before an auction process starts, Habeck said, adding that lowest bids would win.

Firms emitting 10 kilotonnes of CO2 or more a year would be eligible for the auction process, effectively opening it up for the thousands of mid-sized companies active in Europe's top economy.
