The share of renewable electricity in the UK generation mix reached a new record of 29.8% in the second quarter of 2017, exceeding the previous record of 26.9% set in the first quarter of the year, government figures showed today. The new record was driven by both higher wind capacity and...
This paper presents a modeling framework to analyze how the different policy measures of the EMR will shape the future UK electricity generation mix until 2050. We set up a two-sector model where players can invest in various types of generation technologies including renewables, nuclear, and ...
Thus they underestimate the dynamics of power sector (in terms of long-term electricity generation mix, cost and emissions) and also ignore cost-effective emission reduction opportunities available elsewhere in the economy (e.g. transport, or industrial sectors). Many of these sectoral shortcomings ...
Impact on UK energy mix 对英国能源结构的影响 More onshore wind could even reduce bills for customers, according to Atkins. 阿特金斯表示,更多地使用陆上风电,甚至可以为用户节省电费。 “We believe it could,” he says, “E...
The country has the highest combined share of natural gas and renewable energy in its power mix in Europe. The other important contributor to electricity generation is nuclear power, which accounts for 14 percent. The remainder comes from oil and hydropower. For the UK to achieve its ambitious...

This included investment in nuclear power generation, which became a valuable, if sometimes controversial, contributor to the overall power generation mix. Then, in the late 1980s - and throughout the 1990s - there was a period of strong investment in combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power ...
We explore the relationship between low-carbon objectives and the strategic security of electricity in the context of the UK electricity system. We consider diversity of fuel source mix to represent one dimension of security—robustness against interruptions of any one source—and apply two different ...
Emissions of the principal pollutants, including carbon dioxide, depend on the fuel used to generate the electricity as well as the technology used in the power station. Each country has a unique generating mix and thus the relative benefits of electric cars and those using conventional fuels ...
