中国石化新闻网讯 据俄罗斯Sputnik网站1月1日马德里报道,西班牙政府今年将关闭所有的煤矿。 随着越来越多的国家结束化石燃料开采这种污染严重的做法,西班牙将在2019年关闭国内所有剩余的26个煤矿,其中大部分煤矿位于阿斯图里亚斯、阿拉贡、卡斯蒂利亚和莱昂地区。 关闭煤矿将影响到2000多名工人,这个数字大大低于1985年估计的51,420名煤矿工人。 根据Telesur的一份报告,西班牙生产的煤炭主要卖给本国的火电厂用于发电。 与欧洲其他发达国家一样,欧盟成员国西班牙的煤炭采掘行业30年来也一直在下滑。 据报道,尽管马德里法律要求两家西班牙矿业公司离开西班牙,并要求返还所有财政和税收援助的现金,但这两家西班牙矿业公司已表示打算继续在西班牙进行采矿作业。 据Telesurtv.net报道,尽管西班牙所有煤矿都将关闭,但西班牙在2020年前将继续从俄罗斯和哥伦比亚等地进口煤炭用于发电。 西班牙政府已下令,到2020年,西班牙燃煤火力发电厂必须停止运营,永久关闭或改用包括太阳能和风能在内的强制性能源发电。 李峻 编译自 Sputnik 原文如下: Moving Beyond Fossil Fuels:Spain to Shutter All Coal Plants in 2019 Spain will shut down every one of its coal mines this year. Joining an increasing number of nations ending the heavily-polluting practice of fossil fuel extraction, Spain will shutter all of its remaining 26 coal mines in 2019, most of which are in the Asturias, Aragon and Castilla and Leon locales. Over 2,000 workers will be affected by the closures, an employment number significantly lower than the 51,420 estimated coal mining industry workers in 1985. Spanish coal is primarily sold to the nation’s own thermal power plants for electricity production, according to a report from Telesur. Similar to other developed nations in Europe, the EU member has seen its coal extraction industry decline for some 30 years. According to reports, two Spanish mining companies have stated their intention to continue extraction operations, despite Madrid law requiring the firms’ departure from Spain and the cash return of all financial and tax aid. Although all Spanish coal mines will be closed, the mineral will continue to be imported from Russia and Columbia — among other sources — and burned to produce electricity for power grids until 2020, according to Telesurtv.net. Madrid has decreed that in 2020 Spanish thermal power generation plants burning coal must cease operations, shuttering for good or switching to mandated sources, including solar and wind power.
