The British green revolution is returning

Recently, the British government launched an ambitious plan for the use of renewable energy, which has aroused the attention of all sectors of society. Prime Minister Brown said: "This is a green revolution that is occurring and is the most dramatic change in the UK's energy policy since the appearance of the nuclear power plant." The British "Guardian" reported that the government's plan is about to be submitted to the parliament for discussion. Once it has been passed into the bill, the UK's energy use will have the greatest impact in 50 years.

The most attractive target of this new plan is that renewable energy will account for 15% of the energy supply by 2020. One-third of the electricity will come from renewable energy, greenhouse gas emissions will be reduced by 20%, and the demand for oil will be reduced. 7%. Naturally, it costs a lot of money and it is estimated that it needs to invest 100 billion pounds.
There are three main ways to complete this plan:
The first is to strengthen wind power. The United Kingdom is a country rich in wind resources. At present, wind power in Scotland has a certain scale. According to the new plan, on the basis of the existing wind power facilities in various places, an additional 4000 wind turbines will be added along the coast and 3,000 wind turbines will be added at sea. By 2020, 45% of UK wind power will come from Scotland, 18% from Wales, 10% from Northern Ireland, and the rest from England.
The second is to expand the use of bioenergy. Make full use of new technologies to process crop straw, wood, garbage, etc. to generate electricity. There are many technical requirements and supporting projects for this requirement. For example, the use of wood to generate electricity can reach 6% of the total electricity consumption in the United Kingdom. However, how to harvest existing wood and how to set aside land for tree replantation requires reasonable and scientific management. The new plan proposes to harvest 1 million tons of timber each year and to allocate 350,000 hectares of land for growing forest trees and other bio-energy crops. Preferential measures are taken to encourage the establishment of waste treatment power stations to produce biogas instead of traditional natural gas.
The third is to further promote solar power generation. At present, there are only 90,000 sets of solar water heating systems in the UK. The new plan estimates that if feasible incentive measures are taken, it can increase by 40% every year. By 2020, there will be 7 million sets of solar hot water systems. One in four British households can use hot water from their own rooftop solar equipment.
The British media believes that the “Blueprint for a new energy strategy” launched by the Brown government will not only promote diversification of energy use, reduce dependence on oil, but also reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create new employment opportunities. The prospects are very tempting, but there are also The problem that cannot be bypassed: One is that the new plan will inevitably increase the use of electricity and gas in the UK. According to calculations, the average annual cost of electricity and natural gas for British households is 1,055 pounds. Once the "green technology" is achieved, the electrical cost will increase to 1,346 pounds. The people are very realistic. Even if the government's plans are even better, it would be very difficult for them to implement them if they can use their pockets. This requires making great efforts to save energy and improve the efficiency of energy use, thereby reducing the use of green energy. Another is how to use market mechanisms to achieve the leap to green energy. Due to the huge cost of the new plan, it is not possible for the government to pay the bill. Many aspects require the investment of the company. The government must introduce feasible preferential measures in terms of technology, taxation, market, etc. Only if the enterprises are profitable can the green energy strategy be promoted.
Dr. Sheng Xiangzhao, the director of the British Scott Wilson Consultant Group who has long been engaged in energy and environmental work, told reporters that Brown's new green revolution plan is very welcome and has significant implications for other countries including China. The United Kingdom has been promoting the development of a low-carbon economy in recent years. This is a very important strategic choice. The United Kingdom announced the first climate change bill in the world last year. It wants to seize the leading position in the world's new energy policy and technology. Recently, the United Kingdom has established an infrastructure planning committee that is responsible for the approval of large-scale projects such as power plants, energy, and airports. The purpose is also to accelerate the planning and approval process of large-scale projects. Brown is now determined to launch a new energy plan, which is to find a feasible way for the UK to achieve energy diversification. However, the current renewable energy in the UK only accounts for 5% of the energy supply. To achieve the goal of 15% renewable energy in energy supply by 2020, there is still a long way to go.
