据能源世界网4月6日新德里报道，根据国际可再生能源署（IRENA）表示，随着各国进一步减少对化石燃料发电的依赖，2020年全球新增可再生能源发电量达到创纪录的260吉瓦，比上年增长50%。
该机构在其《2021年可再生能源能力统计》报告中表示，去年新增的全部电力中，80%以上是可再生能源，其中太阳能和风能占新增可再生能源的91%。
新增发电量的部分原因欧洲、北美以及亚美尼亚、阿塞拜疆、格鲁吉亚、俄罗斯和土耳其停止使用化石燃料发电。
化石燃料电量总增加量从前一年的64吉瓦降至2020年的60吉瓦。
IRENA总干事Francesco La Camera表示，成本在下降，清洁技术市场在增长，能源转型的好处从未如此明显。他补充道，这一趋势势不可挡，但还有大量工作要做。
IRENA上个月表示，到本世纪中叶，可再生能源发电能力必须扩大10倍以上，才能避免灾难性的气候变化。
IRENA在其容量统计报告中称，已经是世界上最大可再生能源市场的中国，去年新增了136吉瓦的可再生能源电量，而美国的装机容量为29吉瓦。
截至2020年底，包括水电在内的全球可再生能源发电装机容量累计达到2799吉瓦。
根据国际能源署(International energy Agency)和其它来源的数据显示，可再生能源在全球能源生产中所占比例目前接近30%。
各国正在从化石燃料转向可再生能源，以实现2015年《巴黎协定》(Paris Agreement)达成的长期目标，即将平均气温上升幅度限制在比工业化前水平高出2摄氏度以下。这将要求各国在2050年之前达到净零碳排放。

Record 260 GW of new renewable energy capacity added in 2020: Research
A record 260 gigawatts (GW) of new renewable energy capacity was added worldwide in 2020, up 50 per cent from the year before, the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) said, as countries further reduced their reliance on fossil fuel power.
In its Renewable Capacity Statistics 2021 report, the agency said more than 80 per cent of all new electricity capacity added last year was renewable, with solar and wind accounting for 91 per cent of new renewables.
The rise in new capacity was partly because of the decommissioning of fossil fuel power generation in Europe, North America and in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Russia and Turkey.
Total fossil fuel additions fell to 60 GW in 2020 from 64 GW the previous year.
"Costs are falling, clean tech markets are growing and never before have the benefits of the energy transition been so clear," said IRENA director general Francesco La Camera
"This trend is unstoppable, but (...) there is a huge amount to be done," he added.
Last month, IRENA said renewable power capacity will have to expand more than ten-fold by mid-century to avert catastrophic climate change.
China, already the world's largest market for renewables, added 136 GW of renewables last year, while the United States installed 29 GW, IRENA said in its capacity statistics report.
Cumulatively, installed global renewable generation capacity amounted to 2,799 GW at the end of 2020, including hydropower.
The share of renewables in energy generation worldwide now stands at nearly 30 per cent, according to the International Energy Agency and other sources.
Nations are switching from fossil fuels to renewables in an effort to meet the long-term goal, agreed under the 2015 Paris Agreement, of limiting a rise in average temperatures to below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. This would require countries to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
