据油价网8月24日消息称，美国投资者的犹豫不决来自美国政策导向转向清洁能源，以及全球推动以可再生能源取代化石燃料。然而，近几个月来，投资者似乎意识到，石油和天然气——特别是资源国家生产的石油和天然气田——将在帮助全球能源安全方面发挥重要作用。

华尔街和投资组合投资者支持能源转型中的清洁能源机会，但在地缘政治冲突发生后，世界正在应对前所未有的能源危机，争夺能源安全之际，他们并没有放弃传统能源。

随着石油和天然气价格飙升，大型石油公司实现了创纪录的利润，投资者也逐渐意识到化石燃料仍然占全球能源消费的80%，世界现在需要更多的化石燃料，以避免冬季能源配给。

因此，资产管理公司和私人股本公司在向更安全、更清洁的能源的竞争中支持这两匹市场黑马。银行也在为石油和天然气以及可再生能源项目安排融资。

Investors Haven’t Given Up On Oil Completely

The hesitancy among investors comes from the policy’s pivot to clean energy and the global push for replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources. However, in recent months investors seem to have realized that oil and gas – especially such produced in source countries– will play an important role in helping global energy security. 

Wall Street and portfolio investors are backing clean energy opportunities in the energy transition, but they haven’t given up on conventional energy as the world grapples with an unprecedented energy crisis and scrambles for energy security after the war.  

Energy has been the top-performing sector of the market this year as oil and gas prices surged, Big Oil booked record profits, and investors have come to realize that fossil fuels still make up 80% of global energy consumption and the world needs more of those fuels now to avoid winter rationing of energy. 

So, asset managers and private equity firms are backing both horses in the race toward more secure and cleaner energy sources. Banks are also arranging financing for both oil and gas and renewable energy projects.
