在特朗普(Donald Trump)开始第二个美国总统任期之际,中美再次打响贸易战几乎已成定局,而对能源转型至关重要的矿物可能会陷入这场交锋的漩涡。 特朗普已威胁要对来自中国、以及通过其他国家输往美国的中国商品加征关税。 与此同时,中国正在制定一套“多样化”的政策工具包,以应对日益加剧的贸易紧张局势。最近一个值得注意的例子是中国对锗、镓、石墨和锑等四种矿物实行出口管制。 所有这些矿物都在低碳技术中发挥着重要作用,但同时也具有军事等其他用途。 Carbon Brief等机构的分析表明,中国于2023年夏季首次实施的出口管制并未对关键矿物供应链产生持续影响。 然而,2024年12月初宣布的更严格的管控措施,特别是对美出口的限制,引发了关于这些措施可能产生多大影响的辩论。 在本文中,Carbon Brief探讨了美中之间围绕关键矿物的紧张关系,可能对供应链稳定性以及清洁能源转型产生的影响。 哪些矿物对清洁能源转型至关重要? 矿物对多种低碳技术的发展至关重要。 例如,铟和镓用于太阳能电池板的涂层,铜和“稀土”金属用于风力发电机的导体和永磁体,而从锂到锰的各种矿物则广泛应用于不同类型的电池。 中国在许多矿物的供应链中占据重要地位,尤其是在加工环节。如下表所示,全球超过一半的石墨、稀土元素(REEs)和钒的开采,以及大部分铝、钴、石墨、铟、锂、稀土元素和硅的加工均集中在中国。 然而,并非所有这些材料都被视为“关键矿物”。“关键矿物”是一个政治术语,用于描述那些在重要战略领域中发挥作用的矿物。 美国将50种矿物列为关键矿物,欧盟确定了34种关键矿物和另外16种“战略原材料”,而日本的清单上列出了35种矿物。 尽管中国自2016年以来没有更新其官方的关键矿物清单,但2023年11月,中国国家安全部官方公众号发布的一篇文章透露,中国至少将31种矿物视为关键矿物。 该文章比较了中国(橙色)、欧盟(绿色)和美国(蓝色)关键矿物清单中的重叠与差异部分。 大宗商品咨询公司CRU集团中国办事处特别顾问、前首席执行官约翰·约翰逊(John Johnson)告诉Carbon…
