報(bào)告指出，加上核能，英國風(fēng)能的發(fā)電量超過了化石燃料。盡管如此，根據(jù)英國國家電網(wǎng)公布的統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)，2022年天然氣是英國最大的單一發(fā)電來源，占總發(fā)電量的38.5%。

統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)還顯示，去年有5個(gè)月，英國50%以上的電力是由風(fēng)能和核能產(chǎn)生的。即便如此，英國人還是支付了過高的電價(jià)，因?yàn)榕c歐洲大陸一樣，英國電力市場(chǎng)的所有價(jià)格都是基于天然氣價(jià)格的。

英國能源非盈利機(jī)構(gòu)能源與氣候情報(bào)部門能源主管杰斯·拉爾森補(bǔ)充說，“我們老式的能源電網(wǎng)迫切需要投資，以最大限度地利用風(fēng)能和太陽能提供的機(jī)會(huì)，繼續(xù)減少英國居民的能源賬單”。

英國擁有全球最大的風(fēng)力發(fā)電能力之一，達(dá)到25.5吉瓦，英國政府計(jì)劃將進(jìn)一步大幅增加風(fēng)力發(fā)電能力。2030年的目標(biāo)是50吉瓦的海上風(fēng)力發(fā)電能力。

英國能源市場(chǎng)監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)Ofgem在去年年底的一份報(bào)告中寫道：“英國政府的能源安全戰(zhàn)略制定了一系列步驟，以加速我們擺脫對(duì)昂貴且對(duì)環(huán)境有害的化石燃料的依賴。”

報(bào)告說，地緣政治緊張局勢(shì)凸顯了這一轉(zhuǎn)變現(xiàn)在不僅是為了實(shí)現(xiàn)英國的凈零排放目標(biāo)，而且還突顯了從供應(yīng)安全角度減少英國對(duì)天然氣依賴的必要性。

UK Wind Power Generation Hit A Record High In 2022

Wind power generation reached a record high last year in the UK, accounting for a 26.8% share of total electricity generation, the BBC reported, citing data published by National Grid.

Together with nuclear, the report noted, wind accounted for more electricity production than fossil fuels. That’s despite the fact that gas was the single largest source of electricity generation in the country in 2022, accounting for 38.5 percent of the total, per the National Grid numbers.

The numbers also showed that for five months last year, more than 50 percent of the electricity produced in the country was generated by wind and nuclear. Even so, Britons paid exorbitant prices for electricity because, like in continental Europe, the electricity market in the UK has all prices based on the price of gas.

"The UK has a good record with offshore wind. We're quite a giant in the offshore wind world and our industry is very attractive," said the head of energy at the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit, an energy non-profit, as quoted by the BBC.

"Our old-fashioned energy grid urgently needs investment to maximise the opportunity that wind and solar offer to continue to reduce bills," Jess Ralson added.

The UK has one of the largest wind power capacities globally, at 25.5 GW, and government plans should see this rise further, considerably. The target for 2030 is 50 GW of offshore wind power.

“The Government’s Energy Security Strategy set out a series of steps to accelerate our transition away from reliance on expensive and environmentally harmful fossil fuels,” the country’s energy market regulator Ofgem wrote in a report late last year.

“The invasion of Ukraine highlights that this transition is now not just a matter of meeting Great Britain’s Net Zero targets, but also highlights the need to reduce our reliance on gas from a security of supply perspective.”
