???? 據能源之聲意見專欄3月3日報道，蘇格蘭政府將在明天的預算案之前發出消息，稱蘇格蘭企業必將獲得能源轉型努力的推動，這一消息已廣受業界歡迎。

????預計將有超過5700萬英鎊的投資有助于在關鍵部門創造本地就業機會，并對北海過渡協議表示歡迎，這標志著各國政府進一步認可化石燃料工業在國家能源未來發揮積極作用的雄心。

????一年一度的聯合國氣候變化大會(COP26)將吸引國際社會對英國的關注，我們將展示石油和天然氣生產國如何在促進就業、商業和社區的公平轉型方面發揮帶頭作用。

????化石燃料工業是一個經驗豐富、前途光明的行業。在過去的50年里，該行業繼續為數百萬家庭提供負擔得起的、安全的能源和產品。我們的供應鏈，在蘇格蘭東北部和整個英國的工業中心地區發展，已經發展出了出口到世界各地的技能和技術。

????北海過渡協議是化石燃料部門與英國政府之間承諾合作的合作，將提供一次絕佳的機會，再次幫助改變我們的能源未來，使我們成為水下中心樞紐和低碳能源革命的領導者以及與能源過渡區公司之間的持續合作。

????目前化石燃料工業為英國提供了約151,600個直接和間接就業機會，為英國經濟貢獻260億英鎊，其中包括2018年115億英鎊的出口額。

????North Sea Transition Deal chance to transform UK fossil fuel industry

????News ahead of tomorrow’s Budget that Scottish businesses are set to receive a boost to energy transition efforts have been widely welcomed by our industry.

????With more than ￡57m of investment expected to help create?local?jobs in key sectors?and a welcome nod towards the North Sea Transition Deal, it signals further recognition by governments of our ambitions to play a positive role in the country’s energy future.

????In a year where COP26 will draw international attention towards the UK, we are showing how oil and gas producing countries can lead the way with a fair transition which supports jobs, businesses and communities.

????We’re an industry with experience and with a promising future. Over the past 50 years, we’ve continued to provide affordable and secure energy and products to millions of households. Our supply chain, developed in the North East Scotland and in industrial heartlands across the UK, has developed skills and technologies which are exported across the world.

????The North Sea Transition deal, a cooperation of commitment between our sector and the UK government, will provide a prime opportunity to once again help transform our energy future, making us leaders in the low-carbon energy revolution with the development of an underwater hub and continued collaboration between companies in the Energy Transition Zone.

????We currently support around 151,600 direct and indirect jobs in the UK and contribute ￡26 billion to the UK economy, including ￡11.5 billion in exports in 2018.
