油價網7月14日報道，據能源轉型非營利組織洛基山研究所（Rocky Mountain Institute，簡稱RMI）與貝索斯地球基金（Bezos Earth Fund）合作的最新分析顯示，到2030年，風能和太陽能發電量將繼續飆升，占據全球電力的比例將從目前的12%增至超過三分之一。

預計風能和太陽能的進一步增長將使全球電力系統走上IEA預想的宏大零排放路線。根據該研究，可再生能源的激增將使太陽能和風能在2030年的發電量達到12000太瓦時至14000太瓦時，比2022年水平高出3至4倍，也將超過COP28氣候峰會前提出的到2030年全球可再生能源容量增至三倍的呼吁。

過去十年中，風能和太陽能所取得的成本下降預計將持續，到2030年，太陽能和風能的價格預計將再次下降50%。RMI的分析預測，太陽能價格到2030年將再次降至每兆瓦小時20美元左右，相比目前每兆瓦小時40美元以上的價格減少一半。

上個月，IEA在一份報告中指出，歐洲的能源危機、美國的通貨膨脹削減法案以及亞洲綠色能源裝機的持續強勁擴張，都將為今年可再生能源容量增加帶來有史以來最大增幅。

全球可再生能源裝機的新增容量預計將在今年激增至440吉瓦，同比增加107吉瓦，創下有史以來新裝機容量增加最大值，其中光伏發電裝機的新增量將占到可再生能源容量增長的三分之二。

Wind And Solar To Generate 33% Of Global Power By 2030

Wind and solar power generation will continue surging to the point of accounting for more than one-third of global electricity by 2030, up from 12% now, according to a new analysis by the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), a nonprofit organization focused on the energy transition.

The expected further surge in wind and solar puts the global power system on track for the IEA’s ambitious net-zero pathway, RMI said in the research done in partnership with the Bezos Earth Fund. 

based on the forecasts, the surge in renewables would see solar and wind generate 12,000-14,000 terawatt-hours (TWh) by 2030. This would be 3 to 4 times higher compared with 2022 levels, and would also exceed recent calls ahead of the COP28 climate summit for a tripling of global renewable energy capacity by 2030, RMI said. 

The cost declines wind and solar have achieved over the past 10 years are expected to continue with solar and wind roughly halving in price again by 2030. RMI’s analysis forecasts that solar prices will roughly halve again by 2030, falling to as low as $20 per megawatt-hour (MWh) for solar, compared to over $40 per MWh now.

Last month, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said in a report that the energy crisis in Europe, the Inflation Reduction Act in the United States, and the continued strong expansion of green energy installations in Asia are all expected to contribute to the biggest-ever increase in renewable energy capacity additions this year.

Globally, new installations of renewable energy capacity are expected to surge to 440 gigawatts (GW) this year, up by 107 GW year-on-year and the largest increase in new capacity ever seen, the IEA said in its report. Solar photovoltaic (PV) additions are set to account for two-thirds of the increase in renewable power capacity this year.
