Photovoltaic industry calls for the British government clearly 2050 emissions targets

Solar photovoltaic (pv) net news: for the British government cut carbon emissions in the next 30 years the new plan, the market of quick response, but the predictability of the market reaction is not weaken its potential information.

the British prime minister, Teresa & middot; Maine has failed to live up to European and hit, in leaving the euro, she built a new 2050 net zero carbon emissions targets, won the praise of the domestic solar energy industry.

solar trade association (British industry group STA) Chief executive Chris Hewett said: & other; 2050 years ago to write a net zero emissions of greenhouse gases into the law, is a critical step in dealing with climate emergency. But if we don't take action, the long-term goal is meaningless. In terms of solar energy and energy storage, the government must act quickly, eliminate unnecessary delay the obstacles of development. ”

this week, prime minister plans to submit a legal document, modify the climate change bill in 2008. According to the committee on climate change ( CCC） Recommendations in a recent report, the legislation would require the net zero emissions by 2050. This will improve the current legislative requirements, from the level of 1990 a 80% cut in greenhouse gas emissions, it also means that Britain is expected to become the first in the G7 countries to zero emissions legislation.

but the STA remain conservative attitude about the plan and asked the government to explain how it intends to achieve its goals. As the government continues to fossil fuel subsidies, failing to provide a for renewable energy and other Market channel & throughout; , the group asked the prime minister for cleaner forms of power generation to build a more & other A fair competition environment & throughout; — — Part of the method is cancelled on fossil fuel subsidies and tax breaks, and cancel a 20% value-added tax on some solar home system proposal.

　　“ A 100% renewable energy systems, including heating and transport, is fully able to reach, after combining energy storage & throughout; Hewett said, & other; If the government can achieve commercialization and large scale market deployment, then the industry would be big potential clean energy, another example of economic opportunities. ”

the STA is expected, the next four years, Britain will install 4 - 7 gigawatts of subsidies, solar power generation capacity. The agency said, solar and wind energy is currently the most cheap way of generating. The STA also pointed out that the photovoltaic power generation will play an important role in achieving emissions in 2050.

　　“ Solar energy can not only provide clean energy, and low cost electric power can also be used to produce ammonia, hydrogen and green both energy can greatly promote the family, the transport and shipping department decarburization, & throughout; Hewett said, & other; Solar energy has been the key to pushing forward the innovation of battery energy storage and electric vehicles, it can provide power for a family or the whole city, which means it can be implemented in & other; Net zero emissions & throughout; Play an important role. ”

the chief executive of UK pv developers Solarcentury Frans van den Heuvel praised the government's plans to write new target in 2050 into the legal is an important step in dealing with global climate change, at the same time echo the STA urged the government to explain how to achieve its goals. At the same time he also strongly opposed to the UK will have to buy carbon credits from developing countries to achieve the 2050 target, and ignored the committee on climate change for such action.

the Solarcentury also criticized the chief executive of the British government greatly underestimated the potential of solar energy. He said: & other; If the need to combat climate chaos, achieve the goal of zero emissions, now is the time for renewable energy seriously. Solar energy plays key role in this regard, it is time to ready at high speed, large-scale deployment. ”
