石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据WENews.com网站5月29日休斯顿报道，英国苏格兰皇家银行(Royal Bank of Scotland)周二表示，该行已加强对项目融资和对高碳能源项目和企业的一般贷款的限制，与包括汇丰银行(HSBC)在内的其他银行一起支持其气候政策。 苏格兰皇家银行表示，它将不再直接资助新的燃煤发电厂或热力煤矿、油砂或北极石油项目以及不可持续的植被或泥炭地清除项目。 苏格兰皇家银行还表示，该行将不再借钱给那些40%以上收入来自热能煤或40%以上收入来自电力公司的矿业公司。之前两者的门槛是65%。 今年4月，汇丰银行还表示，该行将在诸如荷兰安智银行(ING)和法国巴黎银行(BNP Paribas)那样的其他大银行以后停止向新的燃煤发电厂、油砂和北极钻井项目提供资金。 李峻 编译自 WENews.com 原文如下： RBS to Cease Financing of ‘high-carbon energy’ projects Britain’s Royal Bank of Scotland said on Tuesday it had tightened restrictions on project finance and general lending for high-carbon energy projects and companies, joining other banks like HSBC in shoring up its climate policies.
RBS said it would no longer directly finance new coal-fired power stations or thermal coal mines, oil sands or Arctic oil projects and unsustainable vegetation or peatland clearance projects. It also said it would no longer lend money to mining companies that generate more than 40 percent of their revenues from thermal coal or power companies that generate more than 40 percent of their electricity from coal. The previous threshold for both was 65 percent. In April, HSBC also said it would stop funding new coal power plants, oil sands and arctic drilling, following on from other large banks such as ING and BNP Paribas.
