Countries must creatively complement the use of fossil fuels and renewable energy in the interim pending when renewable energy can stand alone as major source of energy globally. This was the view of the Chief Executive Officer, Lekoil, Lekan Akinyanmi, while speaking on the side-lines of the World Economic Forum’s yearly meeting at Davos.
Globally, there has been an increase in calls for reduction of fossil fuel consumption which environmentalists have indicted for greenhouse gas emission. "It is possible to keep an oil and gas company sustainable. The first thing we have got to do is to stop denying that there is an issue." Indeed, there is an issue, Akinyanmi said. "The change over from fossil fuel to alternative energy or cleaner fuels is a multi-decade or probably multi-century thing. The fossil fuel industry will still be relevant. What we need to do is to figure out ways to be responsible in the fossil fuel production and consumption process." Historically, a lot of fossil fuel companies have produced oil and flared the gas. But it is actually the gas that is more efficient. It’s friendlier to the environment, so we need to shift our attention there. From our perspective as Lekoil one of the things that helps us is that, a good chunk of our portfolio is actually gas so we are actually well on our way.
Energy analysts suggest that the renewable energy market will grow at a cumulative average growth rate of 7.6% between 2020 and 2025 to reach 3,812 gigawatts by 2025. Rising investment and improvement in technology has seen a drastic improvement in renewable energy output. Between 2020 and 2025, the United States and other developed countries are scaling up investments in renewable energy. However, The Asia Pacific region is emerging as the fastest-growing market for renewable energy globally, accounting for nearly 27% of the global market share. Within the Asia Pacific, China and India together form the leading renewable energy markets having almost 75% of the installed capacity of renewable energy.
I think we will make our way through this. Unfortunately, I think there is a lot of brinkmanship. "We actually do need an energy mix to solve the world’s energy problems. In the interim there will be discontinuities, the pendulum will swing both ways. But it is shortsighted to just ignore the fossil fuel industry and move to the renewable energy industry or vice versa. We need a portfolio that mixes both energy sources," Akinyanmi said.
It can be seen from the available statics in Paragraph 3 that________.
选项
A、India has been the fastest-growing market for renewable energy globally
B、the top two countries leading the renewable energy markets are in Asia
C、the developed countries have benefited most from renewable energy
D、India has ranked the highest in its growth rate of renewable energy
答案
B
解析
根据题干关键信息Paragraph 3可定位至文章第三段。本段通过数据来说明可再生能源市场的占比和增长情况。该段最后一句提到Within the Asia Pacific, China and India together form the leading renewable energy markets having almost 75% of the installed capacity of renewable energy (在亚太地区,中国和印度共同构成了领先的可再生能源市场,拥有几乎75%的可再生能源装机容量),由此可知,可再生能源市场上的两个领先的国家是亚洲的中国和印度,故B项为正确答案。由第三段第四句可知,亚太地区正在成为全球增长最快的可再生能源市场,而非印度,故A项和D项错误,应排除;而第三段第三句提出美国和其他发达国家将加大对可再生能源的投资,并未提及发达国家从可再生能源中获益最多,故C项也可排除。
