Uhulumeni wase-UK umemezele ngo-Okthoba 15 ukuthi uhlose ukushicilela isu elisha le-biomass ngo-2022. I-UK Renewable Energy Association isamukele lesi simemezelo, igcizelela ukuthi i-bioenergy ibalulekile ekuguqukeni kwe-renewables.

UMnyango Wezamabhizinisi, Amandla kanye Necebo Lezimboni wase-UK uzibophezele ekuthuthukiseni isu elisha le-bioenergy ekuphenduleni kwawo umbiko wenqubekelaphambili ka-2020 weKomidi Lokushintsha Kwesimo Sezulu, owashicilelwa ngoJuni.Umbiko we-CCC ukhuluma ngenqubekelaphambili ekwehliseni ukukhishwa kwegesi e-UK futhi uhlola umsebenzi kahulumeni wokunciphisa ukuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu.

Ngaphakathi kombiko wayo wenqubekelaphambili, i-CCC icele ukuthi isu lase-UK le-bioenergy livuselelwe ngokuhambisana nezincomo ngokubusa, ukuqapha kanye nokusetshenziswa kahle okuvela embikweni we-CCC we-biomass wezi-2018 kanye nombiko wokusetshenziswa komhlaba wezi-2020.I-CCC ithe isu elivuselelwe kufanele libandakanye ukucutshungulwa kokusetshenziswa okungcono kakhulu kwemithombo yemvelo kanye nemfucuza kuze kube ngu-2050, okuhlanganisa ukhuni ekwakhiweni kanye nomnotho obanzi we-bioeconomy;indima yokubamba kanye nokugcinwa kwekhabhoni (CCS) kanye nezimfuneko zokulungela i-CCS, nezinsuku ezicacile zokuthi i-CCS izodinga ukuhlanganiswa kuzo zonke izindawo ze-biomass kanye nemfucuza;I-UK kanye nokubusa kwamazwe ngamazwe phezu kwe-biomass feedstocks;amasu okusekela, okuhlanganisa nokususwa nokuthathwa kwe-carbon dioxide;i-aviation biofuels kanye nokukhiqizwa kwe-UK ye-biomass feedstocks.

Empendulweni yayo, i-BEIS ithe ihlose ukushicilela isu elisha le-biomass ngo-2022. Lelo su elivuselelwe kulindeleke ukuthi lakhele phezu kwesu lika-2012 lase-UK bioenergy futhi lizohlose ukuhlanganisa iminyango eminingi imigomo yayo yokungabi nalutho ihilela ukusetshenziswa kwe-biomass esimeme. .I-BEIS iphinde yathi izozicabangela izincomo ze-CCC njengoba ithuthukisa isu elivuselelwe futhi izobeka imininingwane eyengeziwe ephepheni layo elimhlophe lezamandla.Ukubuyekezwa kwenqubekelaphambili kulindeleke ukuthi kukhishwe ngonyaka ozayo.Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-BEIS ithe izokwethula isimemezelo sokuthola ubufakazi mayelana nezinqubo zokusekela zokususa igesi ebamba ukushisa (GGR) ngokuhamba kwesikhathi kulo nyaka ezizohlola izinketho zesikhathi eside nezesikhathi esifushane ze-GGR, okuhlanganisa ne-bioenergy ne-carbon capture and storage (BECCS) .

“Siyayiqaphela impendulo kaHulumeni embikweni we-CCC futhi siyakwamukela ngokuqinile ukuzibophezela kukahulumeni okusha ekuletheni i-Bioenergy Strategy yase-UK ebuyekeziwe, ngokuhambisana nesincomo seKomidi Lokuguquguquka Kwesimo Sezulu nokwakhela phezu kweQhinga Le-Bioenergy eliholwa yi-REA uqobo, eshicilelwe ngonyaka odlule,” kusho uNina Skorupska, isikhulu esiphezulu se-REA.

Ngokusho kwe-REA, i-bioenergy ibalulekile ekuguqukeni kokuvuselelwa kabusha.Leli qembu lithe indima ye-bioenergy ihlukahlukene, inikela ngesixazululo esisheshayo nesithengekayo ekuqedeni ukushisa nokuthutha, kuyilapho ihlinzeka ngamandla avuselelekayo angathunyelwa avumela ukuvikeleka kwamandla.Uma kwenziwa ngendlela eqhubekayo, i-REA ilinganisela ukuthi i-bioenergy ingahlangabezana namaphesenti angu-16 wamandla ayisisekelo ahlinzekwa ngo-2032 futhi yagcizelela ukuthi i-UK ngeke ihlangabezane nomgomo wayo we-net-zero ngaphandle kwayo.
