Ucte Scales Back 2020 Needs To 20-gw

摘要

Generation adequacy across the synchronized continental European grid looks healthy to 2015, according to the Union for the Co-ordination of Transmission of Electricity (UCTE)'s latest forecast issued on January 6.rn"About 20 GW of diverse generating capacities would have to be confirmed and commissioned before 2020 to maintain the level of adequacy at an appropriate level," the UCTE said.rnThis figure has fallen dramatically from the 50-GW assessment reported in the previous forecast due to the number of investments announced in the last months, noticeably gas, hard coal and wind power, UCTE said.
