华盛顿,2月17日(路透社)- 美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的政府周二宣布了三个由日本投资的项目,总价值达360亿美元,其中包括得克萨斯州的一个石油出口设施、佐治亚州的一家工业钻石工厂以及俄亥俄州的一个天然气发电厂。

特朗普在Truth Social平台上表示,这些项目是日本5500亿美元美国投资承诺下的首批投资,该承诺是一项贸易协议的一部分,该协议将特朗普对日本进口商品的关税降至15%。他对这些项目的细节未作过多说明。

商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克在一份声明中表示,价值330亿美元的俄亥俄州朴茨茅斯发电厂将是美国历史上最大的天然气发电设施,年发电量达9.2吉瓦,足以满足俄亥俄州所有家庭的用电需求。

该设施将由日本科技投资者软银集团(SoftBank Group)的子公司SB Energy运营,在数据中心快速增长(用于为人工智能应用供电)的背景下,将增加基础负荷电力供应。

白宫表示,日本将投资价值21亿美元的得克萨斯州海岸外深水 GulfLink 原油出口设施。

卢特尼克称:”该项目预计每年将为美国原油出口带来200-300亿美元收入,确保我们炼油厂的出口能力,并巩固美国作为全球领先能源供应国的地位。”

由Sentinel Midstream开发的得克萨斯州 GulfLink 证实其参与了该计划,并表示”荣幸成为美国商务部和日本政府的可信合作伙伴”。

特朗普称得克萨斯州的投资将包括一个液化天然气项目,但卢特尼克的声明和白宫情况说明书未提及液化天然气。

卢特尼克表示,佐治亚州的第三个重大项目是一家合成工业钻石制造工厂,将满足美国对合成钻石砂100%的需求,而合成钻石砂是先进制造和半导体生产的关键投入。美国目前在此类供应上很大程度上依赖中国。

白宫在情况说明书中称,该高压合成钻石工厂价值约6亿美元,将由戴比尔斯集团(De Beers Group)旗下的工业钻石公司Element Six运营。戴比尔斯是全球最大的钻石生产商。

目前尚不清楚这些项目的成本中有多少将由日本实体出资,以及在何种条件下出资。根据美国与日本此前达成的协议,项目利润将在日本收回初始投资成本前由美国和日本按50-50比例分享,之后利润将按90-10的比例向美国倾斜。

政府的这些宣布是在卢特尼克上周与日本经济贸易大臣赤泽良正(Ryosei Akazawa)会面之后做出的。

赤泽周四对记者表示,在宣布协议之前仍有几个问题待解决。

“这些项目规模如此之大,没有一个非常特殊的词——关税——是无法实现的,”特朗普在Truth Social上写道。

WASHINGTON, Feb 17 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump’s administration on Tuesday announced three projects valued at $36 billion to be financed by Japan, including an oil export facility in Texas, an industrial diamonds plant in Georgia and a natural gas power plant in Ohio.

The projects are the first investments under Japan’s $550 billion U.S. investment pledge as part of a trade deal that cut Trump’s tariffs on Japanese imports to 15%, Trump said on Truth Social. He gave few details about the projects.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said in a statement that the Portsmouth, Ohio power plant, valued at $33 billion, would be the largest natural gas-fired generating facility in U.S. history, generating 9.2 gigawatts of electricity annually, more than enough to power all of the homes in Ohio.

The facility, to be operated by SB Energy, a subsidiary of Japanese tech investor SoftBank Group, would increase baseload power at a time of fast-growing electricity demand from data centers built to power artificial intelligence applications.

The White House said Japan would invest in the $2.1 billion Texas GulfLink deepwater crude oil export facility off the Texas coast.

“This project is expected to generate $20–30 billion annually in U.S. crude exports, secure export capacity for our refineries, and reinforce America’s position as the world’s leading energy supplier,” Lutnick said.

Texas GulfLink, which is being developed by Sentinel Midstream, confirmed that it was part of the initiative and was “honored to be a trusted partner with the U.S. Department of Commerce and the government of Japan.”

Trump said the Texas investments would include a liquefied natural gas project, but Lutnick’s statement and a White House fact sheet did not mention LNG.

Lutnick said the third major project in Georgia was a synthetic industrial diamond manufacturing plant that would satisfy 100% of U.S. demand for synthetic diamond grit, a critical input for advanced manufacturing and semiconductor production. The U.S. currently relies largely on China for such supplies.

The high-pressure synthetic diamond plant valued at about $600 million, will be operated by Element Six, the White House said in a fact sheet. The industrial diamond company is a unit of De Beers Group, the world’s largest diamond producer.

It was unclear how much of the projects’ costs would be funded by Japanese entities and under what conditions. Under an earlier U.S.-Japan agreement, profits from the projects were due to be shared 50-50 between the U.S. and Japan until Japan’s initial investment costs were recouped, after which profits would be split 90-10 in favor of the U.S.

The administration’s announcements followed meetings last week between Lutnick and Japan’s economic and trade minister Ryosei Akazawa.

Akazawa told reporters on Thursday that several issues remained unresolved before deals could be announced.

“The scale of these projects are so large, and could not be done without one very special word, TARIFFS,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
