据今日油价网站3月7日消息 英国政府周四启动了一项政府与海上风电行业的联合协议，预计到2030年，该协议将大幅提高可再生能源发电的份额，并使英国历史上首次超过化石燃料用于发电。

到2030年，英国政府预计英国70%的发电量来自低碳能源，该国的海上风力发电量将上升到30%。

根据英国商务、能源和工业战略部的最新季度数据，由于可再生能源发电量增加，低碳发电在2018年第三季度的份额达到创纪录的56%，高于2017年同期的54%。

2018年第三季度，可再生能源发电量占发电量的比例从2017年第三季度的30.0%升至创纪录的33.1%，与去年同期相比，2018年第三季度末，可再生能源发电量为43.2吉瓦，增长了3.9吉瓦（10%）。

根据周四公布的新海上风电行业协议，英国每年发电量中的海上风电份额从2010年的0.8%上升到2017年的6.2%，预计到2020年将进一步上升到10%左右。

英国政府和该行业分别致力于可再生能源合同和基础设施投资的长期确定性，以推动英国海上风电行业的发展。

根据该协议的估计，到2030年，该行业的基础设施投资总额将超过525亿美元（400亿英镑），同时英国政府将为未来的差价合约提供高达7.32亿美元（5.57亿英镑）的资金。

预计到2030年，这笔交易将使英国海上风电行业的就业人数增加两倍，达到27000人。

Renewables To Overtake Fossil Fuels In UK Power Generation By 2030

The UK government launched on Thursday a joint government-industry Offshore Wind Sector Deal, which is expected to significantly raise the share of renewable energy generation by 2030 and help it overtake fossil fuel-powered generation for the first time in UK history.

By 2030, the UK government expects 70 percent of the electricity generated in the UK to come from low-carbon sources, with offshore wind power in the country’s generation rising to 30 percent by 2030.

According to the latest quarterly figures from the UK’s Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy, the share of low carbon electricity generation accounted for a record high 56 percent in the third quarter of 2018, up from 54 percent in the same period of 2017, thanks to higher power generation from renewable sources.

Renewables share of electricity generation jumped to a record 33.1 percent in Q3 2018, from 30.0 percent in Q3 2017, with renewable electricity capacity at 43.2 GW at the end of the third quarter of 2018, up by 10 percent, or 3.9 GW, compared to a year earlier.

According to the new Offshore Wind Sector Deal unveiled today, the share of offshore wind of the annual UK power generation rose from just 0.8 percent in 2010 to 6.2 percent in 2017, and is expected to further rise to around 10 percent by 2020.

The UK government and the industry are committing to long-term certainty in renewable power contracts and investments in infrastructure, respectively, to boost the offshore wind industry in the UK.

The sector will deliver total infrastructure investments of over US$52.5 billion (￡40 billion) by 2030, based on the sector’s estimates, according to the deal. The UK government, for its part, will provide up to US$732 million (￡557 million) available for future Contracts for Difference.

The deal is also expected to triple the number of jobs in the UK offshore wind sector to 27,000 by 2030.
