據(jù)油價(jià)網(wǎng)1月12日消息稱(chēng)，本周早些時(shí)候，風(fēng)力發(fā)電產(chǎn)生了創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的能源量，周二晚上首次超過(guò)21吉瓦。

狂風(fēng)天氣將風(fēng)力發(fā)電推向了一個(gè)新的高峰，英國(guó)渦輪機(jī)的發(fā)電量在新的一年里上升。

英國(guó)國(guó)家電網(wǎng)電力系統(tǒng)運(yùn)營(yíng)商(NGESO)證實(shí)，在1月10日周二下午6點(diǎn)至6點(diǎn)半之間，它產(chǎn)生了21.6吉瓦的電力，占英國(guó)能源結(jié)構(gòu)的50.4%。

這是有史以來(lái)最大的風(fēng)力發(fā)電量，打破了去年12月30日創(chuàng)造的20.9吉瓦的紀(jì)錄，這是去年創(chuàng)造的第三個(gè)風(fēng)能紀(jì)錄。

行業(yè)機(jī)構(gòu)RenewableUK在整個(gè)冬季一直在跟蹤可再生能源和核能等低碳能源產(chǎn)生的電力，并每?jī)芍馨l(fā)布一次更新。

其最新計(jì)算顯示，在12月27日至1月9日的圣誕假期后窗口期，低碳能源提供了英國(guó)82.5%的電力。

這將減少13.1億立方米的天然氣需求，這將耗資21億英鎊。

RenewableUK首席執(zhí)行官Dan McGrail敦促政府充分利用風(fēng)力發(fā)電的持續(xù)增長(zhǎng)。

他說(shuō)：“隨著公眾對(duì)可再生能源的支持也創(chuàng)下歷史新高，很明顯，我們應(yīng)該努力最大化對(duì)可再生能源的新投資，以提高我們的能源安全。”

Wind Power Generates Record Amount Of Energy In The UK

Wind power generated record amounts of energy earlier this week, topping 21 gigawatts for the first time ever on Tuesday evening.

Blustery conditions have powered wind generation to a new peak, with generation across the UK’s turbines rising over the New Year.

National Grid’s electricity system operator (NGESO) confirmed that between 6pm and 6.30pm on Tuesday 10th January, it generated 21.6GW in power – providing 50.4 per cent of the UK’s energy mix.

This is the most wind has ever generated, and beats the previous record of 20.9GW set on 30 December, which was the third wind energy record set last year.

Industry body RenewableUK has been tracking electricity produced by low carbon sources such as renewables and nuclear throughout the winter and posting updates every fortnight.

Its latest calculations show low carbon power sources produced 82.5 per cent of Britain’s electricity in the post-Christmas window from the 27 December to 9 January.

This cut gas demand by 1.31bn cubic meters, which would have cost ￡2.1 billion.

RenewableUK’s chief executive Dan McGrail urged the Government to make the most of wind power’s continued growth in generation.

He said: “With public support for renewables also hitting new record highs, it’s clear we should be trying to maximise new investment in renewables to increase our energy security.”
