中国石化新闻网讯 据能源世界网1月1日伦敦报道，英国国家电网周三说，作为煤电的发源地，英国从风能、太阳能和核能等零碳能源生产的电力2019年首次超过了化石燃料的发电量。 在19世纪80年代建造了世界上第一座燃煤发电厂，煤炭成为英国的主要电力来源和下个世纪的主要经济驱动力。但去年，英国成为第一个承诺到2050年实现净零排放的七国集团国家，并将于11月在格拉斯哥主持联合国的国际气候会谈。 英国国家电网公司首席执行官约翰·佩蒂格鲁夫（John Pettigrew）根据公司的最新数据表示，进入新的十年，这确实是一个历史性时刻。 根据数据显示，2019年，风能、太阳能、水力发电、核能和进口电量约占英国电力的48.5%，而煤炭和天然气等化石燃料的贡献率约为43%。其余的来自生物量。 零碳发电的增加标志着一个巨大的变化，与近二十年前相比，当时化石燃料提供了大约四分之三的国家电力。 这种转变主要归功于英国可再生能源发电能力的快速增长，风能，太阳能和水力发电量在2019年占英国电力的四分之一以上，而1990年仅为2.3％。 随着建造更多的大型海上风电场，这一数字有望继续增长。 国家电网数据显示，英国8%的电力来自通过与法国、比利时、荷兰和爱尔兰的互连线从欧洲进口。这些进口中约有66％来自零碳发电。 根据今年前五个月的数据，该数据证实了国家电网在2019年中期发布的对低碳电力增长的预期。 事实证明，英国多风的海岸是大型风能项目的理想之地，英格兰的西北海岸拥有世界上最大的海上风电场Orsted的Walney Extension。 郝芬 译自 能源世界网 原文如下： Britain's zero-carbon power outstrips fossil fuels in 2019 Britain, the birthplace of coal power, produced more electricity from zero-carbon sources such as wind, solar and nuclear than from fossil fuel plants for the first time in 2019, National Grid said on Wednesday. Having built the world's first coal-fired power plant in the 1880s, coal became Britain's dominant electricity source and a major economic driver for the next century. But last year Britain became the first G7 country to commit to reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 and in November will host the United Nations' international climate talks in Glasgow. "As we enter a new decade, this truly is a historic moment," said National Grid Chief Executive John Pettigrew, referring to the company's latest data. The data shows wind, solar, hydro, nuclear and imports produced about 48.5 per cent of Britain's electricity in 2019 while fossil fuels such as coal and gas contributed about 43 per cent. The rest came from biomass. The increase in zero-carbon power marks a huge shift from almost two decades ago when fossil fuels provided about three quarters of the country's electricity. The shift has been mainly thanks to a rapid increase in Britain's renewable power capacity, with wind, solar and hydro producing more than a quarter of the country's electricity in 2019, up from only 2.3 per cent in 1990. This figure is expected to continue to grow as more large offshore wind farms are built. The National Grid data shows that 8 per cent of Britain's electricity came from imports from Europe via interconnectors with France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Ireland. About 66 per cent of these imports came from zero-carbon generation. The data confirmed expectations for growth in low-carbon power published by National Grid in mid-2019, based on data for the first five months of the year. Britain's windy coastlines in particular have proved to be an ideal host for large wind projects, with the northwest coast of England home to the world's largest offshore wind farm, Orsted's Walney Extension.
