Ukumiswa okuphantse kube ziinyanga ezisixhenxe kokuvunywa kweeprojekthi zamandla avuselelekayo ngurhulumente wephondo lase-Alberta entshona yeKhanada kuphelile. Urhulumente wase-Alberta waqala ukumisa ukuvunywa kweeprojekthi zamandla avuselelekayo ukususela ngo-Agasti 2023, xa iKhomishini yeeNkonzo zoLuntu yephondo yaqalisa uphando malunga nokusetyenziswa komhlaba kunye nokubuyiselwa komhlaba.
Emva kokususa ukuvalwa ngomhla wama-29 kuFebruwari, iNkulumbuso yase-Alberta uDanielle Smith uthe urhulumente ngoku uza kuthatha indlela "yezolimo kuqala" kwiiprojekthi zamandla avuselelekayo zexesha elizayo. Uceba ukuvala iiprojekthi zamandla avuselelekayo kumhlaba wezolimo othathwa njengonamandla okunkcenkceshela alungileyo okanye alungileyo, ukongeza ekusekeni indawo ethe tyaba engama-35km ejikeleze oko urhulumente akugqala njengeendawo ezintle.
I-Canadian Renewable Energy Association (CanREA) yamkele ukuphela kokuvalwa kwaye yathi akuyi kuchaphazela iiprojekthi zokusebenza okanye ezo zakhiwayo. Nangona kunjalo, le arhente ithe ilindele ukuba impembelelo ivakale kwiminyaka embalwa ezayo. Ithe ukuvalwa kokuvunywa "kudala imeko yokungaqiniseki kwaye kunempembelelo embi kwintembelo yabatyali-mali e-Alberta."
“Nangona ukumiswa komthetho kususiwe, ukungaqiniseki okukhulu kunye nomngcipheko kusekho kubatyali-mali abafuna ukuthatha inxaxheba eCanada.'imakethi yamandla avuselelekayo eshushu kakhulu,"utshilo uMongameli weCanREA kunye ne-CEO uVittoria Bellissimo.“Eyona nto ibalulekileyo kukwenza le migaqo-nkqubo ibe semgangathweni, kwaye ikhawuleze."
Lo mbutho uthe isigqibo sikarhulumente sokuthintela amandla avuselelekayo kwiindawo ezithile zephondo “siyadanisa.” Uthe oku kuthetha ukuba uluntu lwasekuhlaleni kunye nabanini bomhlaba baya kuphoswa ziingenelo zamandla avuselelekayo, njengengeniso yerhafu enxulumene nayo kunye neentlawulo zerenti.
“Umoya namandla elanga kudala ekho kunye nomhlaba wezolimo ovelisayo,” utshilo umbutho. “ICanREA iza kusebenzisana norhulumente kunye ne-AUC ukufuna amathuba okuqhubeka nale ndlela inenzuzo.”
I-Alberta iphambili kuphuhliso lwamandla avuselelekayo eKhanada, ibangela ngaphezulu kwe-92% yamandla avuselelekayo kunye nokukhula kwamandla okugcina amandla eCanada ngo-2023, ngokutsho kweCanREA. Kunyaka ophelileyo, iKhanada yongeze i-2.2 GW yamandla amatsha avuselelekayo, kuquka i-329 MW yelanga esetyenziswa kakhulu kunye ne-24 MW yelanga ekwindawo.
I-CanREA ithe ezinye iiprojekthi ze-3.9 GW zingafumaneka kwi-intanethi ngo-2025, kunye nezinye iiprojekthi ezicetywayo ze-4.4 GW eziza kufunyanwa kwi-intanethi kamva. Kodwa yalumkisa ukuba ezi ngoku “zisengozini”.
Ngokutsho kwe-International Energy Agency, amandla elanga aqokelelweyo eCanada aza kufikelela kwi-4.4 GW ekupheleni kuka-2022. I-Alberta ikwindawo yesibini nge-1.3 GW yomthamo ofakiweyo, emva kwe-Ontario ene-2.7 GW. Eli lizwe lizibekele usukelo lomthamo welanga opheleleyo we-35 GW ngo-2050.
