據(jù)油價網6月13日消息稱，杜克能源公司達成了一項協(xié)議，將其商業(yè)可再生能源業(yè)務出售給布魯克菲爾德可再生能源公司——一家風能和太陽能資產運營商。

這筆交易價值28億美元，但凈收益將低得多，為11億美元。杜克公司在一份新聞稿中表示，該公司將利用這筆資金發(fā)展其他風能和太陽能業(yè)務，計劃在未來12年內將超過30吉瓦的發(fā)電容量納入其系統(tǒng)。

杜克能源總裁兼首席執(zhí)行官Lynn Good表示：“此次出售是我們向完全控股公司轉型的重要一步，我們有宏大的電網和清潔能源投資計劃，將為我們的客戶和利益相關者帶來好處。”

布魯克菲爾德的首席執(zhí)行官則評論說，這筆交易將鞏固該公司作為美國最大的風能和太陽能運營商之一的地位，該公司擁有約90吉瓦的運營和開發(fā)資產。

杜克能源公司報告今年第一季度凈虧損，盡管收入小幅增長了3.8%。該公司5月份表示，控股資產的收入增長了6.6%，而非完全控股資產的收入下降了。

該公司將其非完全控股的業(yè)務出售給布魯克菲爾德可再生能源公司。這些總計超過3.4吉瓦的風能和太陽能發(fā)電能力以及電池存儲能力。

杜克能源首席財務官本月早些時候對路透表示，該公司計劃在未來五年內投資約650億美元，以轉向低碳電力來源。該計劃旨在幫助該公司到2030年將碳排放量減少50%以上。

杜克還表示，該公司還計劃到2030年成為其天然氣發(fā)電所產生甲烷的凈零排放者。

作為長期計劃的一部分，杜克能源公司計劃到2035年關閉所有的燃煤電廠。到2050年，該公司計劃完全實現(xiàn)凈零碳排放。

Duke Energy To Sell Renewable Energy Assets For $2.8 Billion

Duke Energy has struck a deal to sell its unregulated Commercial Renewables business to Brookfield Renewable—a wind and solar power asset operator.

The deal is worth $2.8 billion but net proceeds will be a lot lower, at $1.1 billion. Duke will use the money to grow its other wind and solar business with plans to incorporate over 30 GW of regulated capacity into its system over the next 12 years, the company said in a news release.

"This sale is an important step in our transition into a purely regulated company with significant grid and clean energy investment plans that will deliver benefits to our customers and stakeholders,” the president and EO of Duke Energy, Lynn Good, said.

The CEO of Brookfield, for his part, commented that the deal would cement the company’s position as one of the biggest wind and solar operators in the country, with some 90 GW in operating and development assets.

Duke Energy reported a net loss for the first quarter of the year although revenues inched up by 3.8%. The revenue from regulated assets increased by 6.6%, the company said in May while revenue from unregulated assets declined.

The company is selling its unregulated operations to Brookfield Renewable. These total more than 3.4 GW in wind and solar power generation capacity and battery storage capacity.

Over the next five years, Duke Energy plans to invest some $65 billion to switch to a lower-carbon source of electricity, the company’s chief financial officer told Reuters earlier this month. The plans aim to help reduce the company’s carbon emissions by over 50% by 2030.

The company also aims to become a net-zero emitter in methane from its gas-powered energy generation assets by 2030, Duke also said.

As part of longer-term plans, Duke Energy eyes shutting down all of its coal power plants by 2035. By 2050, the company plans to have become fully net-zero in carbon emissions.
