Thats the point exactly. You don't need a key to encrypt ssl connections from
nginx to upstream https servers, EXPECT if you are using client certificates.


So either you want to specify the CA file to verify the upstream servers
certificate and you do not use client certificates (no pem file, no key)

OR

you are using client certificates, which is way you need a certificate + key
on the nginx side to connect to upstream https.


So what exactly are you trying to achieve?
