In 2022, renewable energy accounts for 40% of British power demand

ECHEMI 2023-01-04

According to the British Biomass Electric Services Drax Group Corporation commissioned and conducted by the Drax Electric Insight and Analysis of the London Empire Institute of Technology, in 2022, renewable energy covered 40%of Britain's power demand, higher than 35%in 2021 35%in 2021 Essence.

However, despite the low -cost renewable electricity reaching a record level, after the outbreak of the Russian -Ukraine conflict, the cost of fossil fuel continued to rise, resulting in almost a bit of electricity prices.

"If we want lower costs and safer energy supply, we must break the dependence on fossil fuel," said Iain Staffell, Empire of London.

The British gas power generation in 2022 also increased, and the share of fossil fuel in the power structure reached 42%, the highest level since 2016.

In 2022, the share of wind power generation also increased significantly from 23%in 2021 to 28%of the record.

The average annual wholesale price is expected to exceed 200 pounds ($ 240.522) per MWh time, compared with £ 113 in 2021, and £ 34 in 2020. Nevertheless, the United Kingdom has become a net exporter for the first time in more than 10 years, with a net export of 1.9 Taiwa time, which is in sharp contrast to the net import of the previous year in 22.9 Taiwa time.
