由于成本问题,AGL取消了2.5-GW离岸风力项目,影响到维多利亚的可再生能源目标。 AGL cancels 2.5-GW offshore wind project due to costs, impacting Victoria’s renewable goals.

AGL已放弃维多利亚海岸沿岸2.5千兆瓦的Gippsland Skies离岸风力项目, AGL has abandoned its 2.5-gigawatt Gippsland Skies offshore wind project off Victoria’s coast, citing rising costs and economic viability concerns, making it the third major offshore wind project canceled in the region this year. 这一决定包括交出其开发许可证、将AGL的重点转向岸上风、电池、水泵水力发电和天然气加固。 The decision, which includes surrendering its development license, shifts AGL’s focus to onshore wind, batteries, pumped hydro, and gas firming. 这一举动引起人们对维多利亚州到2032年实现两千兆瓦离岸风和到2035年实现95%可再生能源的目标的担忧,特别是在一份关键的审计长报告质疑该州实现目标的能力之后。 The move raises concerns about Victoria’s goal to achieve two gigawatts of offshore wind by 2032 and 95% renewable energy by 2035, especially after a critical auditor-general report questioned the state’s ability to meet targets. 尽管遇到挫折,9个离岸风能许可在该地区仍然很活跃。 Despite the setbacks, nine offshore wind feasibility permits remain active in the area.
