History made: Renewable energy surpassed fossil fuels for European electricity
in 2020
歐盟電力來源 再生能源首度超越化石燃料
4.完整新聞內文:
Europeans got more of their electricity from renewable sources than fossil
fuels for the first time last year, according to an annual report from Ember
and Agora Energiewende.
根據 ember-climate 以及 Agora Energiewende 組織合作的報告
歐盟在 2020年 從再生能源獲得更多電力 首度超越化石燃料
The report, which has been tracking EU's power sector since 2015, found that
renewables delivered 38% of electricity last year, compared to 37% delivered by
fossil fuels.
該研究從 2015 開始追蹤歐盟的電力產業
發現 2020年 再生能源貢獻 38% 的電力 而化石燃料貢獻 37%
The shift comes as other sources, such as wind and solar power, have risen in
the European Union. Both sources have nearly doubled since 2015, and as of last
year accounted for one-fifth of electricity generation in EU countries, the
report found.
其中來自風力和太陽能的比例提升許多
自 2015 以來增加一倍 就 2020 來說 佔去 1/5 的電力產生總量
It's also the reason why coal power declined 20% last year, making up only 13%
of electricity generated in Europe.
相對來說 來自燃煤發電 則下降 20% 佔去 13% 的電力產生總量
"Rapid growth in wind and solar has forced coal into decline, but this is just
the beginning," said Dave Jones, senior electricity analyst for Ember and lead
author on the report, in a statement. "Europe is relying on wind and solar to
ensure not only coal is phased out by 2030, but also to phase out gas
generation, replace closing nuclear power plants, and to meet rising
electricity demand from electric cars, heat pumps and electrolysers."
"快速增加的風力以及太陽能 加速燃煤的下降趨勢 但這只是剛開始"
Ember 的資深電力分析師以及研究主筆 Dave Jones 說道
歐盟依賴風力和太陽能來確保 燃煤 能夠在 2030 退出市場
還有也要淘汰 天然氣 取代 關閉的核電廠（註1）
來達到電動車以及其他 heat pumps, electrolysers 的用電需求
Last year's Covid-19 lockdown measures resulted in less demand for electricity
across the globe. European demand decreased by 4% in 2020, according to the
report, which said Covid trends had no effect on the growth of renewable energy
sources.
2020 的 Covid-19 lockdown 減少全球的用電量 歐盟部分 減少 4%
研究表示 Covid 並沒有降低再生能源的增加趨勢
Since 2015, Europe's electricity emissions recorded a historic decline,
becoming 29% cleaner, the report noted. The milestone follows commitments from
EU leaders last month to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 55% from 1990 levels
by 2030.
自從 2015 起 歐盟的碳排放量 記錄了歷史性的下降 29%
而歐盟各國上個月協議 (Green Deal) 在 2030年 要比 1990年的溫室氣體排放 降低 55%
In the United States, renewable energy overtook coal consumption in recent
years. Last May, renewable energy sources were consumed more than coal for the
first time since 1885.
在美國 近幾年再生能源的消耗逐漸超越 煤炭（註2）
2020 5月 消耗的再生能源總量 首度超越煤炭 自 1885年以來
"Post-pandemic economic recovery must not slow down climate action," said
Patrick Graichen, director of Agora Energiewende, in a statement. "We therefore
need strong climate policy
