澳大利亚太阳能和风能蓬勃发展

中国石化新闻网讯 据ZAWYA1月21日墨尔本报道,在创纪录的一年之后,澳大利亚的风能和太阳能热潮似乎将持续到2019年,尽管电网受到了限制,网络运营商也进行了额外的审查,以确保新项目不会像两年前那样引发停电。 丰富的风能和太阳能、不断下降的涡轮机和面板成本,以及企业对合同的需求(以对冲不断上涨的电价),吸引了数十家希望在澳大利亚建设风力和太阳能发电厂的国际开发商。 “我们相信,我们在澳大利亚有美好的未来,因为我们有正确的答案。”法国Neoen首席执行官Xavier Barbaro说。 像Neoen、其同胞Total-Eren、印度的Adani、美国公用事业公司AES Corp和德国的Sonnen等公司都在澳大利亚进行扩张,希望在未来20年内,随着老化的燃煤电厂退役,填补这一空白。 行业组织清洁能源委员会(Clean Energy Council)董事Anna Freeman表示:“随着该行业进入2019年,信心高涨,建设活动正处于前所未有的水平。” 澳大利亚近20%的电力来自可再生能源。预计未来20年这一比例将升至75%。 根据清洁能源委员会的数据,去年有价值200亿澳元(合140亿美元)的大型太阳能和风能项目在建或接近融资,总发电量为147亿瓦,是2017年纪录的两倍多。 孔丽炜 摘译自ZAWYA 原文如下: Australia’s solar, wind boom to power past grid woes in 2019 Australia’s wind and solar boom looks set to power through 2019 following a record year, despite grid constraints and extra scrutiny from network operators to make sure new projects don’t spark blackouts like ones that hit two years ago. Abundant wind and sun, falling turbine and panel costs, and corporate demand for contracts to hedge against rising power tariffs have attracted dozens of international developers looking to build wind and solar farms Down Under. “We believe that we have a great future in Australia, because we have the right answers,” said Xavier Barbaro, Chief Executive of France’s Neoen, whose biggest market is Australia. Companies like Neoen, its compatriot Total-Eren, India’s Adani, U.S. utility AES Corp and Germany’s Sonnen are expanding in Australia, looking to fill a gap as ageing coal-fired plants are retired over the next two decades. “Confidence is high as the industry enters 2019, with unprecedented levels of construction activity under way,” said Anna Freeman, a director at the Clean Energy Council, an industry group. Australia generates nearly 20 percent of its electricity from renewables. This is forecast to jump to 75 percent over the next 20 years. A total of 14.7 gigawatts (GW) of large-scale solar and wind projects worth A$20 billion ($14 billion) were under construction or reached financial close last year, more than double 2017’s record, according to the Clean Energy Council.
