The value of Europe’s carbon price crossed the level of 90 euros per ton the other day, reaching an all-time high.

Carbon prices in Europe, which continued their upward movement in the last month, exceeded the level of 90 euro/ton in the last day’s transaction, seeing the highest value sale of all time.

The European Emissions Allowance (EUA) contract with a maturity date of December 2021 reached an all-time record of 90.75 euro/ton.

The sale of carbon permits through Germany’s national emissions system by the European Energy Exchange (EEX) will begin on 05 October 2021.

The revenue will be used to limit the taxes on the retail electricity sales price to support renewable energy and to compensate for the increased travel costs.

Germany’s emissions trading system; While the carbon dioxide (CO2) emission price is added to the price of gasoline, diesel, heating fuel, coal and gas, Germany, which expects to generate 7.4 billion euros this year, will be increased gradually until 2050.

The 15th flagship Global Wind Report 2019 by the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) provides a comprehensive overview of the global wind industry through the latest market data, country profiles, trends and analysis from GWEC Market Intelligence. Wind energy has expanded by leaps and bounds in the last 20 years, becoming a mainstream source of clean, cost-competitive energy around the world.

Key findings:

– 60.4 GW of wind energy capacity was installed globally in 2019, a 19 per cent increase from installations in 2018 and the second-best year for wind historically.

Spanish utility Iberdrola is heading a consortium aiming to develop a large-scale floating offshore wind turbine in the North Sea, as the sector looks to drive up the size of technology and push down costs.

In an announcement Monday, the firm said the turbine would be in excess of 10 megawatts (MW) and tested at the Marine Energy Test Centre in Norway. The average size of offshore turbines installed in 2019 was 7.8 MW, according to trade body WindEurope.

The efforts to lift our power generation and electrical grid into the 21st century is a multipronged effort. It needs a new generation mix of low-carbon sources that include hydro, renewables and nuclear, ways to capture carbon that don’t cost a zillion dollars, and ways to make the grid smart.

But battery and storage technologies have had a hard time keeping up. And they are critical for any success in a carbon-constrained world that uses intermittent sources like solar and wind, or that worries about resilience in the face of natural disasters and malicious attempts at sabotage.

Both the world’s largest offshore wind farm and the world’s largest complex of wind farms will soon appear off the British coasts, showing an unprecedented value of renewable energies. Hornsea One by the Danish energy company Ørsted (formerly DONG Energy) and Dogger Bank’s three projects developed by the Scottish SSE will make Britain the biggest offshore wind market in the world.

The largest single offshore wind farm under construction is Hornsea One (1,218MW), while Dogger Bank is made of three projects (Dogger Bank Creyke Beck A, Dogger Bank Creyke Beck B and Teesside A—each with a capacity of 1,200MW).

Global energy-related carbon emissions rose to a record high last year as energy demand and coal use increased, mainly in Asia, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said on Tuesday.

Energy-related CO2 emissions rose by 1.7 percent to 33.1 billion tonnes from the previous year, the highest rate of growth since 2013, with the power sector accounting for almost two-thirds of this growth, according to IEA estimates.

The United States’ CO2 emissions grew by 3.1 percent in 2018, reversing a decline a year earlier, while China’s emissions rose by 2.5 percent and India’s by 4.5 percent.

Eleven Member States already achieved their 2020 targets in 2017, the share of energy from renewable sources in gross final consumption of energy, in the European Union (EU), reached 17.5%, up from 17.0% in 2016 and more than double the share in 2004 (8.5%), the first year for which the data are available.

The share of renewables in gross final consumption of energy is one of the headline indicators of the Europe 2020 strategy. The EU’s target is to obtain 20% of energy in gross final consumption of energy from renewable sources by 2020 and at least 32% by 2030.

German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas called on the US not to interfere in Europe’s energy policies.

Speaking at the traditional New Year reception, Maas said, ’Europe’s energy problems should be resolved in Europe, not in the United States. Geleneksel Noting that North Stream-2 is a full German-Russian joint project and that it is important for all of Europe, the minister also expressed that the Central and Eastern European partners take seriously the doubts about this project.

Belgium’s Nuclear Research Centre (SCK-CEN) and the Institut National des Radioéléments (IRE) are to collaborate on a project to recycle highly radioactive residues resulting from the production of radioisotopes for medical purposes.

Belgium is one of the five major producers and distributors of radioisotopes for medical purposes. Each year, almost seven million patients around the world benefit from a medical examination that makes use of molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) produced in Belgium.

Currently, more than 25% of those isotopes for medical purposes are produced in SCK-CEN’s BR2 research reactor at Mol.
