據油價網12月6日消息稱，國際能源署（IEA）在一份新報告中表示，化石燃料價格危機引發的能源安全新動力將加速可再生能源的發展。

國際能源署負責人比羅爾在對題為《2022年可再生能源》的報告的評論中表示，可再生能源已經在迅速擴張，但隨著各國尋求利用其能源安全優勢，全球能源危機已將它們推向一個增長更快的非凡新階段。

比羅爾還表示：“未來5年，全球新增可再生能源的數量將與過去20年一樣多。”盡管采礦業警告稱，銅等關鍵金屬即將出現短缺，沒有銅，能源轉型將放緩。

由于這些發展，國際能源機構現在預計，在2022年至2027年期間，全球可再生能源發電容量將增加2400吉瓦。

上述預測比國際能源署去年預測的可再生能源增加量增加了30%，“凸顯出各國政府對可再生能源的政策支持有多么迅速”。

該報告還表示，在本報告所述的五年期間，可再生能源將占發電裝機容量擴張的90%，并將在2025年取代煤炭成為世界上最大的電力來源。

歐洲在可再生能源發電裝機容量的增加方面表現尤為出色，國際能源機構預計，2022年至2027年期間的新增裝機容量將是此前5年新增裝機容量的兩倍。

IEA: The Energy Crisis Will Accelerate Renewable Power Growth

The new drive for energy security prompted by the fossil fuel price crisis will accelerate the development of renewable energy, the International Energy Agency has said in a new report.

“Renewables were already expanding quickly, but the global energy crisis has kicked them into an extraordinary new phase of even faster growth as countries seek to capitalise on their energy security benefits,” IEA head Fatih Birol said in comments on the report, titled Renewables 2022.

“The world is set to add as much renewable power in the next 5 years as it did in the previous 20 years,” Birol also said, despite warnings from the mining industry that there are looming shortages of key metals such as copper, without which the energy transition will slow down.

As a result of these developments, the International Energy Agency now expects global renewable power capacity to expand by 2,400 GW between 2022 and 2027. 

The above projection represents a 30-percent increase on last year’s renewable power additions forecast by the IEA, “highlighting how quickly governments have thrown additional policy weight behind renewables.”

The report also said that renewables will account for as much as 90 percent of power generation capacity expansion in the five-year period under review, and will replace coal as the world’s largest source of electricity by 2025.

Europe is seen doing particularly well in renewable power capacity additions, with amounts to be added between 2022 and 2027 seen by the IEA at twice the amount added in the previous five years.
