中国石化新闻网讯 据土耳其新闻社8月17日消息称,全球风能理事会(GWEC)在最近的一份报告中称,如果到2024年全球新增近海风电装机容量达到51吉瓦(GW),那么未来五年海上风电行业将创造约90万个就业机会。
到2024年平均每年增长18.6%,到2030年将达到8.2%,到2025年新的装机产能预计将超过20 GW,到2030年将达到30 GW。
海上风能为整个价值链提供了一系列的工作机会——从项目规划和融资到制造和运输,再到建筑、运营和维护(O&M)。
风能机构称:“美国风能协会在2020年进行的一项研究发现,该行业提供了“高薪,高薪的工作,需要大约74个职业的多元化技术人员……电工、焊工、涡轮机技术人员、码头工人、卡车司机、起重机操作员、铁工、管工、打桩工、工程师、机械师、科学家以及海上设备和船舶操作员。”
同时,总计1吉瓦的海上风电可减少超过350万吨的二氧化碳排放—这使得它可以作为一种替代化石燃料的能源,甚至比陆地风能、太阳能、水力发电或高效天然气发电更有可能避免碳排放。
该报告称:“要想将全球变暖幅度控制在工业化前的1.5-2摄氏度以内,到2030年,每年至少需要新增100吉瓦陆上和海上风电装机容量。”

Offshore wind sector to create nearly 1M jobs in 5 years
Around 900,000 jobs in offshore wind sector could be created over the next five years if nearly 51 gigawatts (GW) of new offshore wind capacity were installed worldwide by 2024, the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) said in recent report.
With an average annual growth rate of 18.6 percent until 2024 and 8.2 per cent up to the end of the decade, new annual installations are expected to sail past the milestones of 20 GW in 2025 and 30 GW in 2030.
Offshore wind offers a range of job opportunities across the value chain – from project planning and financing to manufacturing and transport to construction and operations and maintenance (O&M).
"A 2020 study by the American Wind Energy Association found that the sector offers “good, well-paying jobs requiring a diverse technical workforce spanning an estimated 74 occupations... including electricians, welders, turbine technicians, longshoremen, truck drivers, crane operators, ironworkers, pipe-fitters, pile drivers, engineers, mechanics, scientists, and offshore equipment and vessel operators." the wind energy body said.
Meanwhile, a total of 1 GW of offshore wind power avoids more than 3.5 million tonnes CO2 – giving it more potential for carbon avoidance as a technology to displace fossil fuels than even onshore wind, solar, hydro or efficient gas power.
"Keeping global warming within 1.5-2 degrees of pre-industrial levels will require at least 100 GW of new onshore and offshore wind capacity to be installed on an annual basis through 2030," the report said.
