據油價網7月7日消息稱,能源巨頭蘇格蘭和南方電力網絡(SSEN)今天在一份商業計劃草案中表示,可能會承諾超過40億英鎊來推動凈零電力。
SSEN稱,2023年至2028年的計劃草案由利益相關方牽頭,制定了諸如減少20%的非計劃電力中斷以及進一步連接130萬個電動汽車充電點等目標。
SSEN還表示,該公司計劃將碳足跡削減35%,與《巴黎協定》保持一致,并創建一個10億英鎊的凈零基金會。
SSEN配電總經理Chris Burchell表示:“為應對氣候緊急情況,我們需要改造能源系統,這一點從未如此明確過。在我們朝著共同的凈零未來努力的過程中,地方電網發揮促進作用而不是制約作用至關重要。”
SSEN說,隨著英國轉向電力供熱和運輸,地方電網將是實現凈零排放的關鍵。
這家能源巨頭似乎準備利用電力需求的預期激增,沿著凈零需求的道路,正如它所說,“汽車保有量預計將從今天的3萬輛增加到2050年的500萬輛,同時在同一時期安裝了250萬臺熱泵。”
SSEN由英國政府和蘇格蘭政府運營,分別受到2050年和2045年凈零目標的約束。
這家能源巨頭在一份聲明中表示:“氣候變化委員會預測,到 2050 年,低碳技術 (LCT) 的轉變可能會使電網需求增加近三倍。”

Scottish Electric Firm To Pledge $5.5 Billion In Net-Zero Push
Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) may pledge over £4bn in the push for net-zero, the energy giant said in a draft business plan today.
The draft plan for 2023 to 2028, which was led by stakeholders according to SSEN, set goals like cutting unplanned power interruptions by 20 percent and connecting a further 1.3m EV charge points.
SSEN added that it plans to slash its carbon footprint by 35 percent, to align itself with the Paris Agreement as well as create a £1bn net-zero foundation.
“The need to transform our energy system to address the climate emergency has never been clearer and it is critical that local electricity networks are an enabler rather than a constraint as we work toward a shared net zero future,” SSEN distribution managing director, Chris Burchell, said.
Local electricity networks will be a key to net-zero emissions, SSEN said, as the UK shifts to electric heat and transport.
The energy giant looks poised to capitalise on the expected surge in electricity demand along the road to net zero, as it said, “vehicle ownership is forecast to increase from 30,000 today to 5m by 2050 with 2.5m heat pumps installed during the same period.”
SSEN, which operates under British and Scottish governments, is bound by net-zero targets of 2050 and 2045, respectively.
“The Climate Change Committee has forecast that a shift in low carbon technologies (LCTs) could almost treble the demand on electricity networks by 2050,” the energy giant said in a statement.
