核电应该在清洁能源结构中发挥更大的作用

2023.08.07 随着时间的推移,人们越来越清楚核电应该在全球能源结构中发挥更大的作用。 根据国际能源署的数据,核能发电量约占世界电力的 10%,略高于太阳能、风能、地热能和潮汐能,但与水力发电相比仍相形见绌(如下图)。 但据 国际能源机构 (IEA) 估计,就一次能源消耗(指直接使用原始形式的能源)而言,核能的份额仅为 4% 左右,是所有能源类别中最低的。 毫无疑问,作为最古老的低碳能源技术之一,核能在能源排名上还有很大的提升空间,特别是如果我们要实现气候目标的话。 化石燃料依然占主导 我们不得不承认的事实是,化石燃料仍然是世界能源供应的主导力量,能源研究所 […]
