Renewables and nuclear sources were collectively found to have accounted for 39% of global electricity generation in 2022 — a record, according to a think tank's analysis.

根據一個智囊團的分析，可再生能源和核能源合計被發現占2022年全球發電量的39%--創下紀錄。


Record growth in wind and solar last year pushed worldwide electricity generation to its cleanest-ever level, a report found, reflecting a renewable energy boom that researchers say could herald the “beginning of the end of the fossil age.”

一份報告發現，去年風能和太陽能的創紀錄增長將全球發電量推到了有史以來最清潔的水平，反映了可再生能源的繁榮，研究人員說這可能預示著 "化石時代的結束"。
The analysis published Wednesday by independent climate think tank 恩伯 found that 12% of the world’s power came from solar and wind in 2022, up from 10% of global electricity generation in 2021.
周三發布的由獨立的氣候智囊團恩伯發布的分析發現，2022年全球電力的12%來自太陽能和風能，而2021年的全球電力生產中只有10%是由這兩種可再生能源產生的。

Solar was the fastest-growing source of electricity for the 18th consecutive year, the report said, rising by 24% year-on-year and adding enough power to meet the annual electricity demand of South Africa.

報告稱，太陽能是連續第18年增長最快的電力來源，去年環比增長了24%，增加了足以滿足南非的年度電力需求的電量。

The report found that the increase in wind generation, which added 17% in 2022, could have powered almost all of the U.K.

該報告發現，風能的增長以及去年新增的17%的電力，足以為英國幾乎提供全部電力。
“We are entering the clean power era,” said Ma?gorzata Wiatros-Motyka, senior electricity analyst at 恩伯 and lead author of the research. “The stage is set for wind and solar to achieve a meteoric rise to the top. Clean electricity will reshape the global economy, from transport to industry and beyond.”
恩伯的高級電力分析師和研究報告的主要作者馬烏戈扎塔-維阿特羅斯-莫蒂卡說：“我們進入了清潔能源時代。太陽能和風能已經準備好向巔峰迅速發展。清潔電力將重塑全球經濟，從交通到工業及其他領域?！?

Wiatros-Motyka added, “A new era of falling fossil emissions means the coal power phasedown will happen, and the end of gas power growth is now within sight.”

維阿特羅斯-莫蒂卡補充說："化石排放下降的新時代意味著煤電淘汰將發生，而天然氣發電增長的結束現在已經在望。"

Researchers said that the analysis — which was based on electricity data from 78 countries last year and represents 93% of global power demand — provides the first accurate picture of the electricity transition in 2022.

研究人員說，這項分析--基于去年78個國家的電力數據，代表了全球93%的電力需求--提供了2022年電力轉型的第一個準確圖景。

It shows that more than 60 countries now generate over 10% of their electricity from wind and solar.

它顯示，60多個國家現在有超過10%的電力來自風能和太陽能。

Renewables and nuclear sources were collectively found to have accounted for 39% of global electricity generation in 2022 — in a new record high.

研究人員發現，可再生能源和核能源合計占2022年全球發電量的39%--創下新的紀錄。

Despite this progress, researchers said that the dramatic build-out of wind and solar was still not fast enough to fulfil all of the world’s increasing electricity needs. Consequently, the report noted that coal and other fossil fuels met the remaining gap, driving up emissions to a new record high.

盡管取得了進展，研究人員表示，風能和太陽能的劇烈擴張仍不足以滿足全球不斷增長的電力需求。因此，報告指出，燃煤和其他化石燃料彌補了剩余差距，導致排放量創新高。

Coal, the world’s dirtiest fossil fuel, was found to be the single largest source of electricity worldwide last year, producing 36% of global power.

煤炭是全球最臟的化石燃料，去年被發現是全球電力的最大單一來源，生產了全球36%的電力。

Burning fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and gas, is the chief driver of the climate emergency.

燃燒化石燃料，如煤炭、石油和天然氣，是氣候緊急情況的主要驅動力。

“Much more needs to be done to ensure that developing countries are not left behind and locked into high carbon futures,” said Damilola Ogunbiyi, CEO and special representative of the U.N. Secretary-General for Sustainable Energy for All.
Ogunbiyi said the fact that coal power remained the single largest source of electricity worldwide last year reaffirmed the point that the power sector is off track to meet net-zero targets. “The deployment of wind and solar needs to be massively and urgently accelerated.”

“需要做更多的工作，確保發展中國家不被落下，不被困在高碳的未來中，”聯合國可持續能源促進全球特別代表兼首席執行官達米洛拉·奧貢比伊表示。 奧貢比伊表示，去年燃煤電力仍然是全球最大的電力來源，表明電力行業未能達到凈零目標?！帮L能和太陽能的部署需要大規模緊急加速?！?br /> The 恩伯 report said that 2022 may come to mark the peak of electricity emissions and the final year of fossil power growth, with clean power set to meet all demand growth in 2023.
恩伯報告稱，2022年可能成為電力排放的峰值和化石能源增長的最終年份，清潔能源將在2023年滿足所有需求增長。

Analysts projected a 0.3% dip in fossil generation this year, with steeper falls expected in subsequent years, as wind and solar deployment accelerate.

分析師預計今年化石發電將下降0.3％，隨著風能和太陽能的部署加速，未來幾年將有更大幅度的下降。

The International Energy Agency said last year that the electricity sector needs to move from being the highest-emitting sector to being the first sector to reach net zero by 2040 — if the global economy is to decarbonize by the middle of the century.

國際能源機構去年表示，電力部門需要從排放最高的行業轉變為在2040年前成為第一個實現凈零排放的行業，這樣全球經濟才能在本世紀中期實現脫碳。
For this to happen, analysts at 恩伯 said, wind and solar must account for 41% of the global power mix by 2030 — a sharp rise from the 12% observed in 2022.
為了實現這一目標，恩伯的分析師表示，到2030年，風能和太陽能必須占全球電力混合的41％，這與2022年觀察到的12％有著巨大的增長。

Li Shuo, senior policy advisor at Greenpeace East Asia, described China as “the 800-pound gorilla when it comes to the global power sector.”

綠色和平東亞的高級政策顧問李碩表示，中國是全球電力行業的“800磅大猩猩”。

“This is not only because of China’s sheer scale, but also a concerning trend of its electricity sector development. China has no doubt been leading global renewable energy expansion. But at the same time, the country is accelerating coal project approval,” Li said.

“這不僅是因為中國的規模之大，而且還有其電力部門發展的令人擔憂的趨勢。中國毫無疑問是全球可再生能源擴張的領導者。但與此同時，該國正在加速煤炭項目的批準，”李說。

“This won’t carry the country far to truly decarbonize. Rapid power sector reforms are needed to put the country back to the carbon neutrality vision it has set for itself.”

“這不會讓該國真正做到減排脫碳。需要快速的電力市場改革，將該國帶回到其自身制定的碳中和愿景中?！?br />
