NNL says the UK has set a world-leading net zero greenhouse gas emissions commitment and the nuclear fuel cycle is crucial to the role of nuclear technology in decarbonising the future energy system.

Electrical generation by renewable energy sources (i.e., biomass, geothermal, hydropower, solar, wind) set a new record in April 2021 and accounted for 25.7% of total US production.

The UK’s Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, Kwasi Kwarteng, and Norway’s Minister of Petroleum and Energy, Tina Bru, issued a joint statement during Kwarteng's visit to Oslo for their first in-person meeting.

In 2020, India’s electricity production declined by 2.5% at 1,557 TWh. The country has an installed capacity of 412 GW (end-2020).

Roughly a quarter (10.5GW) of India’s 39.2GW of installed wind capacity was commissioned with wind turbine sizes of under 1 megawatt (MW),

Vietnam has 600 MW of wind capacity, including 99 MW offshore, accounting for less than 1% of the country’s installed capacity (69 GW in 2020).

In 2020, consumption of renewable energy in the United States grew for the fifth year in a row, reaching a record high of 11.6 quadrillion British thermal units (Btu), or 12% of total U.S. energy consumption.

According to a review by the SUN DAY Campaign of data recently released by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), wind and solar resources provided nearly all (93.84%) of the new electrical generating capacity added in the U.S. during the first four months of 2021 .

The United States aims to develop 30 GW of offshore wind by 2030.

The auction for 1,243 MW of onshore wind capacity attracted 137 bids totalling 1,161 MW.

China Three Gorges Renewables (75% owned by China Three Gorges Corporation) had a total capacity of 11.9 GW as of September 2020, with 58% of wind, 40% of solar and 2% of small hydro.

В вопросах воздействия энергетики на окружающую среду Россия занимает чёткую позицию, заключающуюся в необходимости повышения энергоэффективности, снижения углеродного следа продукции ТЭК, а также её энергоёмкости.

The £10bn (€11.6bn) project, comprising 200 floating wind turbines, would supply power to offshore oil and gas facilities

Overall, nuclear energy is riskier and has a worse environmental impact than wind energy, while wind is enormously less costly.

Turkey intends to award 2,000 MW of solar and 2,000 MW of wind.
