???? 據能源世界網4月6日新德里報道，根據國際可再生能源署（IRENA）表示，隨著各國進一步減少對化石燃料發電的依賴，2020年全球新增可再生能源發電量達到創紀錄的260吉瓦，比上年增長50%。

????該機構在其《2021年可再生能源能力統計》報告中表示，去年新增的全部電力中，80%以上是可再生能源，其中太陽能和風能占新增可再生能源的91%。

????新增發電量的部分原因歐洲、北美以及亞美尼亞、阿塞拜疆、格魯吉亞、俄羅斯和土耳其停止使用化石燃料發電。

????化石燃料電量總增加量從前一年的64吉瓦降至2020年的60吉瓦。

????IRENA總干事Francesco La Camera表示，成本在下降，清潔技術市場在增長，能源轉型的好處從未如此明顯。他補充道，這一趨勢勢不可擋，但還有大量工作要做。

????IRENA上個月表示，到本世紀中葉，可再生能源發電能力必須擴大10倍以上，才能避免災難性的氣候變化。

????IRENA在其容量統計報告中稱，已經是世界上最大可再生能源市場的中國，去年新增了136吉瓦的可再生能源電量，而美國的裝機容量為29吉瓦。

????截至2020年底，包括水電在內的全球可再生能源發電裝機容量累計達到2799吉瓦。

????根據國際能源署(International energy Agency)和其它來源的數據顯示，可再生能源在全球能源生產中所占比例目前接近30%。

????各國正在從化石燃料轉向可再生能源，以實現2015年《巴黎協定》(Paris Agreement)達成的長期目標，即將平均氣溫上升幅度限制在比工業化前水平高出2攝氏度以下。這將要求各國在2050年之前達到凈零碳排放。

????Record 260 GW of new renewable energy capacity added in 2020: Research

????A record 260 gigawatts (GW) of new renewable energy capacity was added worldwide in 2020, up 50 per cent from the year before, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) said, as countries further reduced their reliance on fossil fuel power.

????In its Renewable Capacity Statistics 2021 report, the agency said more than 80 per cent of all new electricity capacity added last year was renewable, with solar and wind accounting for 91 per cent of new renewables.

????The rise in new capacity was partly because of the decommissioning of fossil fuel power generation in Europe, North America and in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Russia and Turkey.

????Total fossil fuel additions fell to 60 GW in 2020 from 64 GW the previous year.

????"Costs are falling, clean tech markets are growing and never before have the benefits of the energy transition been so clear," said IRENA director general Francesco La Camera

????"This trend is unstoppable, but (...) there is a huge amount to be done," he added.

????Last month, IRENA said renewable power capacity will have to expand more than ten-fold by mid-century to avert catastrophic climate change.

????China, already the world's largest market for renewables, added 136 GW of renewables last year, while the United States installed 29 GW, IRENA said in its capacity statistics report.

????Cumulatively, installed global renewable generation capacity amounted to 2,799 GW at the end of 2020, including hydropower.

????The share of renewables in energy generation worldwide now stands at nearly 30 per cent, according to the International Energy Agency and other sources.

????Nations are switching from fossil fuels to renewables in an effort to meet the long-term goal, agreed under the 2015 Paris Agreement, of limiting a rise in average temperatures to below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. This would require countries to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
