　　英國(guó)石油公司宣布計(jì)劃剝離其美國(guó)陸上風(fēng)能業(yè)務(wù)，旨在精簡(jiǎn)其投資組合并專注于更高價(jià)值的資產(chǎn)，這是一項(xiàng)戰(zhàn)略舉措。該業(yè)務(wù)包括 10 個(gè)運(yùn)營(yíng)中的風(fēng)電場(chǎng)，總凈發(fā)電量為 1.3 吉瓦 (GW)。該決定符合 bp 的更廣泛戰(zhàn)略，即鞏固其全球太陽(yáng)能子公司 Lightsource bp 旗下的陸上可再生能源開(kāi)發(fā)項(xiàng)目。

　　這些資產(chǎn)遍布美國(guó)七個(gè)州，包括印第安納州、堪薩斯州、南達(dá)科他州、科羅拉多州和夏威夷州的風(fēng)電場(chǎng)。英國(guó)石油公司表示，這些資產(chǎn)的出售過(guò)程將很快開(kāi)始，目的是將業(yè)務(wù)作為一個(gè)綜合實(shí)體出售。該公司預(yù)計(jì)新東家還將聘用現(xiàn)有員工，以確保運(yùn)營(yíng)的連續(xù)性。

　　此次撤資之際，英國(guó)石油公司繼續(xù)致力于成為一家更加專注的能源公司，重點(diǎn)關(guān)注太陽(yáng)能和風(fēng)能等低碳能源。 2023年，bp宣布決定完全控股全球太陽(yáng)能開(kāi)發(fā)的關(guān)鍵參與者Lightsource bp。 bp 對(duì) Lightsource bp 的關(guān)注是其滿足日益增長(zhǎng)的低碳電力需求并協(xié)助客戶實(shí)現(xiàn)運(yùn)營(yíng)脫碳的努力的一部分。

　　bp 天然氣和低碳能源執(zhí)行副總裁 William Lin 表示，“bp Wind Energy 的資產(chǎn)質(zhì)量高且已并網(wǎng)，但與我們 Lightsource bp 的增長(zhǎng)計(jì)劃不符。因此，我們相信該業(yè)務(wù)可能對(duì)另一位所有者具有更大的價(jià)值。

　　bp to divest U.S. onshore wind assets, shifts focus to Lightsource bp for renewables

　　In a strategic move aimed at streamlining its portfolio and focusing on higher-value assets, bp has announced plans to divest its U.S. onshore wind energy business. The business includes 10 operational wind farms with a total net generating capacity of 1.3 gigawatts (GW). The decision aligns with bp’s broader strategy to consolidate its onshore renewable power developments under Lightsource bp, its global solar power subsidiary.

　　The assets are spread across seven U.S. states and include wind farms in Indiana, Kansas, South Dakota, Colorado, and Hawaii. bp has indicated that the sale process for these assets will commence shortly, with the intention of selling the business as an integrated entity. The company expects the new owner to also take on the existing workforce, ensuring continuity of operations.

　　This divestment comes as bp continues its journey toward becoming a more focused energy company, with an emphasis on low-carbon energy sources like solar and wind. In 2023, bp announced its decision to take full control of Lightsource bp, a key player in global solar development. bp’s focus on Lightsource bp is part of its efforts to meet the growing demand for low-carbon power and assist customers in decarbonising their operations.

　　According to William Lin, bp’s executive vice president for Gas and Low Carbon Energy, “bp Wind Energy’s assets are high-quality and grid-connected but are not aligned with our plans for growth in Lightsource bp. So we believe the business is likely to be of greater value for another owner.
