德国RWE未来将在英国投资210亿美元绿色能源

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据离岸工程网站10月20消息 德国最大的电力生产商RWE周二表示，预计到2030年，其在英国绿色技术和基础设施方面的投资将达到150亿英镑（210亿美元）。

　　这包括已经宣布的RWE与合作伙伴在两个海上风电场（Triton Knoll和Sofia）上的50亿英镑支出，以及开发四个总容量为2.6吉瓦的新风电。

　　RWE的发电技术包括煤炭、核能和可再生能源，也是北海Dogger Bank上两个相邻的英国近海新场址的首选投标人，潜在装机容量为3吉瓦。

　　首席执行官Markus Krebber表示：“英国是RWE的主要市场之一，我们认为英国是一个吸引持续投资的地方，它提供了一个稳定的监管框架，并拥有丰富的自然风资源。”

　　英国能源市场受到创纪录的能源批发价格的冲击，近几周来，由于价格上涨幅度有限，许多供应商被迫停业。

　　但就太阳能和风能而言，英国是RWE的第二大市场，仅次于美国，占该集团9.4吉瓦装机容量的五分之一以上。

　　RWE也是欧洲最大的可再生能源公司之一，在英国也运营着7吉瓦的现代化高效燃气发电能力，使英国成为该公司在能源装机容量方面最大的国外市场。

　　RWE to Invest $21B in Green Energy in Britain by 2030

　　RWE, Germany's largest power producer, said on Tuesday it expects its investment in green technologies and infrastructure in Britain to reach 15 billion pounds ($21 billion) by 2030.

　　That includes the already announced 5 billion pounds RWE is spending with partners on two offshore wind parks - Triton Knoll and Sofia - and factors in the development of four new farms with a total capacity of 2.6 gigawatts (GW).

　　RWE, whose power generation technologies include coal, nuclear and renewables, is also the preferred bidder for two new adjacent offshore UK sites on Dogger Bank in the North Sea, with potential installed capacity of 3 GW.

　　"The UK is one of RWE's key markets," Chief Executive Markus Krebber said. "We see the UK as an attractive location for ongoing investments, which presents a stable regulatory framework and has great natural wind resources."

　　Britain's energy market has been pummelled by record wholesale energy prices that have driven numerous suppliers out of business in recent weeks as they are limited in how much of the price increases they can pass on.

　　But in terms of solar and wind, Britain is RWE's second-largest market, after the United States, accounting for more than a fifth of the group's installed capacity of 9.4 GW.

　　RWE, also one of Europe's biggest renewables companies, also operates 7 GW of modern and efficient gas-fired capacity in Britain, making the UK the company's largest foreign market in terms of installed capacity across energy sources.
