澳大利亚的Snowy 2.0项目因延误和成本超过12B预算, 但仍是可再生能源目标的关键。 Australia’s Snowy 2.0 project exceeds $12B budget due to delays and costs, but remains key to renewable energy goals.

澳大利亚的Snowy 2.0泵水力发电项目正面临超出其订正120亿美元预算的又一个费用增加,这促使主要承包商逐项重新评估。 Australia’s Snowy 2.0 pumped hydro project is facing another cost increase beyond its revised $12 billion budget, prompting a line-by-line reassessment by the main contractor. 该项目已完成67%,在2028年12月完成前已走上正轨,但由于供应链压力、隧道拖拉和地质困难,项目成本不断上升。 The project, 67% complete and on track for December 2028 completion, has encountered rising costs due to supply chain pressures, tunnel boring machine delays, and difficult geology. 尽管面临各种挑战,但官员们肯定了它在澳大利亚可再生能源转型中的关键作用,预计到2050年,该设施将提供该国一半以上的长期能源储存。 Despite challenges, officials affirm its critical role in Australia’s renewable energy transition, with the facility expected to provide over half the nation’s long-duration energy storage by 2050.
