HVDC Grid Could Re-Energize Renewables — Greenpeace

摘要

Europe could cost-effectively generate 77% of its electricity from renewables by 2030, roughly triple what it does now, with gas-fired units providing additional baseload and speedy backup megawatts when intermittent renewables can't, argues a new Greenpeace report. All Europe has to do is close baseload nuclear and dirty coal power plants and work to build a network of interlinking high voltage direct current (HDVC) power lines: flowing green electricity to consumer hotspots.
