據能源經濟7月15日消息稱，根據歐盟執行委員會周三公布的提案，到2030年，歐盟必須增加可再生能源的使用量，并削減能源消耗，以幫助實現一個更雄心勃勃的溫室氣體減排目標。

　　作為一攬子氣候政策的一部分，歐盟委員會提議對歐盟可再生能源法規進行改革，這些法規決定歐盟必須多快增加使用風能、太陽能和由燃燒的木屑顆粒產生的生物質能等能源。

　　其目標是實施具有法律約束力的目標，即到2030年將歐盟凈排放量在1990年的水平上減少55%，并在2050年完全消除。

　　為幫助實現 2050 年目標，歐盟委員會為歐盟制定了一個更加雄心勃勃的中期目標，即到 2030 年將可再生能源在最終消費中的份額從 2019 年的大約 20% 提高到 40%。

　　這將取代歐盟之前設定的到2030年可再生能源占32%的目標。歐盟委員會估計，歐盟有望實現這一目標。

　　委員會還提議收緊規定，以確定燃燒木材的能源是否可被歸類為可再生能源，并計入綠色目標。

　　它要求5兆瓦或以上的生物質燃料發電廠和熱電廠滿足可持續性標準，并提供與燃燒化石燃料相比的大幅減排。

　　EU unveils plan to increase renewables share in energy mix to 40% by 2030

　　The European Union must increase the amount of renewable energy it uses and cut energy consumption by 2030 under proposals the bloc's executive Commission published on Wednesday to help meet a more ambitious goal for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

　　As part of a package of climate policies, the Commission proposed an overhaul of EU renewable energy rules, which decide how quickly the bloc must increase the use of sources such as wind, solar and biomass energy produced from burning wood pellets or chips.

　　The aim is to implement legally-binding targets to reduce net EU emissions by 55% by 2030, from 1990 levels, and eliminate them by 2050.

　　To help meet the 2050 goal, the Commission has set a more ambitious interim target for the EU to raise the share of renewable energy to 40% of final consumption by 2030, up from roughly 20% in 2019.

　　That replaces a previous target for a 32% renewables target by 2030, which Commission estimates suggest the bloc was on track to meet.

　　The Commission proposed also tightening rules that determine whether wood-burning energy can be classed as renewable and count towards green goals.

　　It requires biomass-fuelled power and heat plants with a capacity of 5 megawatts (MW) or above to meet sustainability criteria, and provide substantial emissions cuts compared with burning fossil fuels.
