據離岸能源2月6日消息稱,根據WindEurope的數據,歐洲在2019年新增了36吉瓦的海上風電產能,創下了年度產能的新紀錄。
來自5個國家的10個新海上風力發電場投產,其中英國占了新增產能的近一半,達到1.7吉瓦。
德國緊隨其后,發電量為1.1吉瓦,丹麥為374兆瓦,比利時為370兆瓦。
歐洲目前的海上風電產能為22吉瓦,其中英國和德國占四分之三,丹麥、比利時和荷蘭幾乎占據了其余的全部份額。
葡萄牙的大西洋浮式風能項目的啟動使歐洲的海上風能達到45兆瓦。
2019年,四個新的海上風力發電場也做出了投資決定,總產能達1.4吉瓦,投資額達60億歐元。
WindEurope首席執行官Giles Dickson表示:“歐洲確實在2019年接受了海上風能。拍賣價格顯示,現在建造海上風力發電比建造新的天然氣或煤炭發電廠更便宜。一些政府提高了他們想要建設的數量。去去年這個時候,我們預計到2030年將達到76吉瓦。現在是100吉瓦。”
“但我們目前還沒有足夠的建設來實現這一目標,更不用說實現綠色協議所需的更雄心勃勃的規模。歐盟委員會表示,到2050年,我們需要高達450吉瓦的海上風電。這意味著到2030年,每年將新增7吉瓦的海上風能;到2050年,每年將增加18吉瓦。去年,我們創造了紀錄,但只有3吉瓦。”

Europe Installs Record 3.6GW of Offshore Wind in 2019
Europe installed 3.6GW of new offshore wind capacity in 2019, which is a new record in annual installations, according to WindEurope.
Ten new offshore wind farms came online across five countries, with the UK accounting for nearly half of the new capacity with 1.7GW.
Germany follows with 1.1GW, Denmark with 374MW and Belgium with 370MW.
Europe now has 22GW of offshore wind, of which the UK and Germany account for three-quarters and Denmark, Belgium and the Netherlands share nearly all of the rest.
The launch of the WindFloat Atlantic project in Portugal brought Europe to 45MW of floating offshore wind.
2019 also saw investment decisions in four new offshore wind farms, representing 1.4GW in capacity and EUR 6 billion in investments.
“Europe really embraced offshore wind in 2019. Auction prices showed it’s now cheaper to build offshore wind than new gas or coal plants. Several Governments raised the amount they want to build. This time last year we were looking at 76 GW by 2030. Now it’s 100 GW,” said WindEurope CEO Giles Dickson.
“But we’re not currently building enough to deliver on that, let alone the more ambitious volumes needed to deliver the Green Deal. The EU Commission says we need up to 450 GW of offshore by 2050. That means 7 GW new offshore wind every year by 2030 and 18 GW onwards by 2050. Last year we built a record amount, but only 3 GW.”
