據今日油價網站4月26日消息 路透社援引沙特財政部長的話報道稱，沙特阿拉伯在未來10年內，通過從原油轉向天然氣和可再生能源發電，可以節省約2000億美元。

　　Mohammed al-Jadaan表示：“我們不是從國際市場以60美元的價格購買石油，然后以6美元的價格出售給沙特公用事業公司，也不是用我們在歐佩克的部分配額以6美元的價格出售，而是要在未來10年內實際每天至少置換100萬桶石油當量，用天然氣和可再生能源替代。”

　　歐佩克最大的石油生產國和世界上最大的原油出口國正不顧一切地尋求減少對石油收入的依賴，使其經濟多樣化，擺脫主要的出口庫存。

　　這一數額大約相當于1.3萬億美元。沙特最大的私人公司、沙特的公共投資基金以及一項國家投資戰略的投資將使其得以釋放，具體細節尚未公布。注入沙特阿拉伯私營行業的總投資將達3.20萬億美元（12萬億里亞爾）。

　　Mohammed幾年前推出的2030年多樣化計劃也非常有活力。在2030年遠景計劃的所有目標實現之前，沙特將優先考慮財政紀律。

　　Al-Jadaan 表示：“從現在到2025年，甚至可能到2030年，財政可持續性是我們的首要任務。我們認為，在實現《2030年愿景》設定的所有目標之前，我們需要保持財政可持續性，控制政府支出?！?/p>

　　Saudi Arabia's Shift To Renewables Could Save It $200 Billion

　　Saudi Arabia could save some $200 billion over the next ten years by switching from crude oil to natural gas and renewables for electricity production, Reuters reports, citing the Kingdom's Finance Minister.

　　"Instead of buying fuel from the international markets at $60 and then selling it at $6 for Saudi utilities, or using some of our quota in OPEC to sell at $6, we're going to actually displace at least 1 million barrels a day of oil equivalent in the next 10 years and replace it with gas and renewables," Mohammed al-Jadaan said.

　　OPEC's largest oil producer and world's largest exporter of crude is on a desperate quest to reduce its dependence on oil revenues by diversifying its economy away from the flagship export stock. Earlier this year,

　　This amount is equal to roughly $1.3 trillion, and its unlocking will be enabled by investments from Saudi Arabia's largest private companies, the Kingdom's Public Investment Fund, and a National Investment Strategy, for which the details have yet to be released. The total investment poured into Saudi Arabia's private sector will amount to some $3.20 trillion (12 trillion riyals).

　　The Vision 2030 diversification plan that Mohammed launched a few years ago is also very much alive, according to Al-Jadaan. The minister said the Kingdom will be prioritizing fiscal discipline until all the targets of the Vision 2030 plan were achieved.

　　"Between now and 2025, and possibly until 2030, fiscal sustainability is a priority for us. We believe that until we achieve all the targets that Vision 2030 has set, we need to maintain fiscal sustainability and control government expenditure," Al-Jadaan said.
