全球电力年中洞察 2022 年上半年

This report by Ember analyzes global electricity data from the first half of 2022 (H1-2022) compared to H1-2021, focusing on the role of renewable energy in meeting growing electricity demand and its impact on fossil fuel generation and carbon emissions.

• In the first half of 2022, renewable energy growth fully met the increase in global electricity demand, which grew by 3% (389 TWh) to reach a total of 13,393 TWh. Wind and solar energy specifically accounted for 77% of this new demand, while hydropower covered the remainder.
• Due to the growth of renewables, global fossil fuel generation remained nearly flat in H1-2022, increasing by only 4 TWh. Coal generation decreased by 1% (36 TWh) and natural gas decreased by 0.05% (1 TWh), though these were offset by a 14% (42 TWh) increase in other fossil fuels, primarily oil.
• The expansion of wind and solar power in H1-2022 prevented a 4% increase in fossil fuel generation, which avoided approximately 40 billion USD in fuel costs and 230 million tonnes of CO2 emissions.
• Despite the H1-2022 trends, global electricity sector emissions may still reach record highs in 2022. This is attributed to increased coal and gas generation in July and August caused by severe droughts affecting hydropower in China's Sichuan province and global heatwaves increasing demand.
• National analysis shows varying levels of renewable energy meeting new demand in H1-2022: China's wind and solar met 92% of new demand, the US met 81%, and India met 23%. In the EU, a temporary decline in nuclear and hydro power led to a short-term increase in coal generation.
