中国石化新闻网讯 据能源之声网站8月7日报道 英国政府将对当前海上能源基础设施进行一次评估，因为其将目光投向了扩展海上可再生能源。 能源大臣Kwasi Kwarteng宣布了这一举措，旨在帮助英国在2030年将海上风力发电量从10吉瓦增加到40吉瓦。 据称，这项改进将有助于为1400万户家庭提供更多的绿色能源。 评估将集中于改善电缆和传输基础设施，以降低将新风电场连接到陆上电网的成本和影响。 同时还将考虑如何将海上风电连接与邻近市场的互联系统结合起来，帮助向国外出口更多的绿色能源。 此前，石油和天然气管理局发布报告称，到2050年，海上可再生能源将占到减排量的30%。 2020年前三个月，可再生能源占英国发电量的近一半，超过了去年创下的39%的季度纪录。 这主要是由海上风力发电所推动，在截至4月的四个月中，其发电量占英国总发电量的30%。 英国政府苏格兰事务大臣David Duguid表示：“可再生能源行业对苏格兰至关重要，英国政府致力于推动该行业的创新，包括支持苏格兰风电项目。” “我们在开发可再生能源、利用经济增长效益和为社区创造高技能就业机会方面处于世界领先地位。” “我欢迎这次评估，认为这是进一步巩固苏格兰在英国绿色革命核心地位的机会。” 英国可再生能源副首席执行官Melanie Onn说：“鉴于海上风电的雄心壮志，显然有必要评估我们如何将未来的项目与电网连接起来。” “至关重要的是，政府、能源监管机构、国家电网和行业都要共同努力，实现2030年40吉瓦的目标，并制定有效的长期解决方案，以实现英国实现净零排放目标所需的海上风电水平。” 王磊 摘译自 能源之声 原文如下： UK Government announces plans to quadruple offshore wind power by 2030 The UK Government will conduct a review of current energy infrastructure at sea as it sets its sights on expanding offshore renewables. Energy Minister Kwasi Kwarteng announced the move, which aims to the help the UK increase offshore wind power from 10GW to 40GW by 2030. It’s claimed the improvement could help power an extra 14 million homes with green energy. The review will focus on improving the cabling and transmission infrastructure to reduce the costs and impacts of connecting new wind farms to the onshore electricity grid. It will also consider how hybrid projects could combine offshore wind connections with interconnectors to neighbouring markets – helping export more green energy abroad. The announcement follows an Oil and Gas Authority report which said offshore renewables could account for 30% of the emissions reductions needed by 2050. Renewable energy made up almost half of the UK’s electricity generation in the first three months of 2020 – beating the previous quarterly record of 39% set last year. This was largely powered by offshore wind, generating 30% of the UK’s electricity in the four months to April. UK Government Minister for Scotland, David Duguid, said: “The renewables industry is vitally important to Scotland and the UK Government is committed to help drive innovation in the sector, including supporting Scottish wind projects. “We are a world leader in developing renewable energies and harnessing the economic growth benefits and creation of highly skilled jobs this brings to communities. “I welcome this review as an opportunity to further cement Scotland’s position at the heart of the UK’s green revolution.” RenewableUK’s deputy chief executive, Melanie Onn, said: “There is clearly a need to review how we connect future projects to the grid given the scale of ambition for offshore wind, so we welcome today’s announcement. “It’s vital that Government, Ofgem, National Grid and industry all work together to achieve our 2030 target of 40GW and develop effective, long-term solutions to deliver the level of offshore wind the UK will need to meet our net zero emissions target.” Executive director of the Electricity System Operator, Fintan Slye, said: “Assessing the best approach to offshore windfarm connections will be vital for the industry to scale up and reach its full potential in the years ahead. We fully support the minister with this review, assessing the costs and benefits of different coordinated offshore network designs and technology and how to best minimise the impact on consumers and coastal communities.” |
