據(jù)美國(guó)鉆井網(wǎng)站報(bào)道，亞太地區(qū)將繼續(xù)引領(lǐng)全球電力市場(chǎng)的增長(zhǎng)，在未來(lái)十年里為可再生能源增長(zhǎng)創(chuàng)造1.8萬(wàn)億美元的機(jī)會(huì)。

能源咨詢公司伍德麥肯茲表示，在過(guò)去20年里，亞太地區(qū)的電力需求增長(zhǎng)了200%。2021年，亞太地區(qū)的電力需求上升到全球總需求的近一半，市場(chǎng)擴(kuò)大了了6.5%——遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過(guò)世界其他地區(qū)。  

到2040年前，亞太地區(qū)的電力需求將平均年增長(zhǎng)2.5%，幾乎是其他地區(qū)的兩倍。由于化石燃料重要性的下降和亞太地區(qū)的脫碳，太陽(yáng)能和風(fēng)能將有巨大增長(zhǎng)的機(jī)會(huì)。但即使電力需求攀升，電價(jià)飆升，可再生能源開發(fā)商面臨的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)也在增加，供應(yīng)鏈、緊縮、融資和政策風(fēng)險(xiǎn)都在上升。更不確定的是，在爆發(fā)地緣政治沖突后，天然氣和液化天然氣的前景發(fā)生了顯著變化。 

與其他地區(qū)一樣，亞太地區(qū)的發(fā)電成本正在上升。自去年第二季度以來(lái)，LNG、煤炭、燃料油和柴油價(jià)格都大幅上漲。

總的說(shuō)來(lái)，未來(lái)3年亞太地區(qū)的發(fā)電成本每年將達(dá)到6500億美元，比去年增加三分之二。最終用戶將承受電價(jià)上漲的沖擊，電價(jià)將上漲27%，到2025年的未來(lái)3年，總費(fèi)用將增加1.7萬(wàn)億美元。  

在價(jià)格上漲的支持下，亞太地區(qū)的電力市場(chǎng)將在未來(lái)十年吸引2.9萬(wàn)億美元的投資?？稍偕茉磳⒊蔀橹饕芤嬲撸核柰顿Y的60%（或1.8萬(wàn)億美元）將流向清潔能源。 風(fēng)能和太陽(yáng)能將占據(jù)最大份額。

同時(shí)，到2050年前，化石燃料在能源結(jié)構(gòu)中的占比將從現(xiàn)在的67%逐漸下降到不足三分之一。 許多成長(zhǎng)型市場(chǎng)仍然依賴煤炭，但隨著整個(gè)地區(qū)的脫碳目標(biāo)已經(jīng)確定，重點(diǎn)正在轉(zhuǎn)向可再生能源。 

伍德麥克茲相信有巨大的機(jī)會(huì)，但也看到挑戰(zhàn)在增加。隨著供應(yīng)鏈和融資成本的上升以及電網(wǎng)整合問(wèn)題的惡化，可再生能源開發(fā)商面臨的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)越來(lái)越大?？s減開支也對(duì)收入構(gòu)成風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。到2030年前，一些市場(chǎng)的太陽(yáng)能和風(fēng)能裝機(jī)容量將達(dá)到電網(wǎng)峰值負(fù)荷的90%。然而在儲(chǔ)能方面的投資還不夠——到本十年結(jié)束時(shí)，儲(chǔ)能水平將僅為電網(wǎng)峰值負(fù)荷的15%。

考慮到可再生能源的全部成本——包括傳輸、電池存儲(chǔ)和天然氣峰值儲(chǔ)備裝置——它們目前在亞太地區(qū)無(wú)法與煤炭競(jìng)爭(zhēng)。  

盡管如此，亞太地區(qū)的發(fā)展方向是明確的。未來(lái)10年，亞太地區(qū)新增年發(fā)電能力平均將達(dá)到327吉瓦，其中太陽(yáng)能和風(fēng)能將達(dá)到200吉瓦。

Renewables In Asia Pacific A $1.8 Trillion Opportunity

Asia Pacific continues to set the pace for power market growth, creating a $1.8 trillion opportunity for renewables in the next decade.

Wood Mackenzie said that Asia Pacific has had a 200% increase in power demand over the past two decades. Power demand in the region rose to nearly half the global total in 2021, as the market expanded by 6.5% – far outpacing the rest of the world.

By 2040, APAC’s power demand growth will average 2.5%, nearly double the rate of other regions and there will be huge opportunities for solar and wind as fossil fuels decrease in importance and the region decarbonizes. But even as demand for electricity climbs and power prices soar, risks to renewables developers are mounting with supply chain, curtailment, financing, and policy risks on the rise. Adding more uncertainty, the outlook for gas and LNG has changed significantly in the wake of the  war .

As in other regions, Asia Pacific’s power generation costs are going up. LNG, coal, fuel oil, and diesel prices have all dramatically increased since the second quarter of 2021.

Overall, generation costs will be $650 billion more each year for the next three years – a two-thirds increase in 2021 numbers. End users will bear the brunt of these hikes, with power set to be 27% more expensive, or a total of $1.7 trillion more over the next three years to 2025.

Supported by price inflation, Asia Pacific’s power market sector will attract $2.9 trillion in investment in the next decade. Renewables will be a major beneficiary: 60% of the investments – or $1.8 trillion – needed will go into clean energy. Wind and solar will make up the lion’s share.

Meanwhile, fossil fuels will decline gradually from 67% of the power mix today to less than a third by 2050. Many growth markets still rely on coal – but with decarbonization targets now set across the region, the emphasis is on shifting to renewables.

Woodmac believes that there were huge opportunities to play for, but also sees that the challenges were mounting.

Renewable developers are increasingly exposed to risk as supply chain and financing costs rise and grid integration issues worsen. Curtailment also poses a risk to revenue. Solar and wind capacity is heading towards 90% of peak grid load in some markets by 2030. And not enough is being invested in storage – by the end of this decade, storage levels will only be at 15% of peak grid load.

Considering the full costs of renewables – including transmission, battery storage, and gas peaker reserve units – they are not currently competitive with coal in the region.

Nonetheless, the direction of travel is clear. Asia Pacific will add an average of 327 GW/year of new power generation capacity in the next decade, with solar and wind hitting 200 GW/year.
