全世界大部分国家把石油作为主要的能源,1965年石油消费量占世界能源总消费量的48％,而1975年上升为54％。1977年以后石油价格不断上涨,1979年期间世界石油价格暴涨将近一倍。这就势必影响各国的能源政策,促使它们加速发展替代能源。埃及尽管石油产品的价格比较低廉,但也已经在考虑发展这门工业了。 Most countries in the world use oil as their main energy source. In 1965, oil consumption accounted for 48% of the world’s total energy consumption, and it increased to 54% in 1975. After 1977, the price of oil continued to rise. In 1979, the world’s oil price soared nearly twice. This will inevitably affect the energy policies of various countries and urge them to accelerate the development of alternative energy sources. Although Egypt’s petroleum products are relatively inexpensive, they are already considering the development of this industry.
