Ukuvalwa kwezinyanga eziyisikhombisa ezicishe kube eziyisikhombisa ekuvuseleleni kwamandla okuvuselela amaphrojekthi nguhulumeni wesifundazwe wase-Alberta eWestern Canada sekuphele. Uhulumeni we-Alberta waqala ukumisa ukuvunyelwa kwamaphrojekthi wamandla avuselelekayo aqala ngo-Agasti 2023, lapho iSifundazwe Sokusetshenziswa Komphakathi seKhomishini siqale uphenyo ngokusetshenziswa komhlaba kanye nokuvuselela kabusha.
Ngemuva kokuphakamisa ukuvinjelwa ngoFebhuwari 29, u-Alberta Premier Danielle Smith uthe uHulumeni manje uzosithatha indlela "yezolimo" yokuqala "emisebenzini yamandla evuselelekayo evuselelwe. Ihlelela ukuvimba amaphrojekthi wamandla avuselelekayo emhlabeni wezolimo athathwa ngokuthi abe namandla amahle noma amahle wokunisela, ngaphezu kokusungula indawo engama-35km buffer ezungeze amazwe abheka kuwo ama-pristine.
I-Canadian Reneckable Energy Association (canrea) yamukele ukuphela kokuvinjelwa futhi ithe ngeke ithinte amaphrojekthi okusebenza noma labo abenziwe. Kodwa-ke, le nhlangano ithe kulindele ukuthi umthelela uzwele eminyakeni embalwa ezayo. Kuthe ukuvinjelwa "kudala isimo sokungaqiniseki futhi kunomthelela omubi ekuthembekeni kwabatshalizimali e-Alberta."
"Ngenkathi ukumiswa kwe-moratorium sekuphakanyisiwe, ukungaqiniseki okukhulu nokubeka engcupheni kuhlala kubatshalizimali abafuna ukubamba iqhaza eCanada'Imakethe yamandla eshisayo evuselelekayo,"kusho uMongameli weCanrea ne-CEO Vittoria Bellissimo."Isihluthulelo ukuthola lezi zinqubomgomo zilungile, futhi ngokushesha."
Le nhlangano yathi isinqumo sikahulumeni sokunqanda amandla avuselelekayo ezingxenyeni zesifundazwe 'sadumaza.' Kuthe lokhu kusho ukuthi imiphakathi yasendaweni kanye nabanini bomhlaba baphuthelwa ngezinzuzo zamandla avuselelekayo, njengemali engenayo yentela ehlobene nokukhokha.
"Umoya kanye namandla elanga sekukhona isikhathi eside enomhlaba okhiqizayo wezolimo," kusho inhlangano. "I-canrea izosebenza nohulumeni kanye ne-AUC ukuphishekela amathuba okuqhubeka nalezi zindlela ezizuzisayo."
I-Alberta isenduneni yokuvuselelwa kwamandla eCanada, i-accounting isikhathi esingaphezu kwama-92% ama-Canada avuselelekayo amandla avuselelekayo amandla okubuyiselwa kwamandla eCanada nokukhula kwamandla okugcina ngo-2023, ngokusho kweCaNrea. Ngonyaka owedlule, eCanada angeze ngo-2.2 GW wamandla wamandla avuselelekayo avuselelekayo, kufaka phakathi ama-329 MW we-Utility-Scale Solar kanye ne-24 MW ye-solar ye-inthanethi.
I-canrea ithe enye i-3.9 GW yamaphrojekthi angafika online ngo-2025, kanti enye i-4,4 GW yamaphrojekthi ahlongozwayo azofika online. Kepha kwaxwayisa ngalezi manje "zisengozini".
Ngokusho kwe-International Energy Agency, amandla eCanada akhumule elanga azofika ku-4.4 GW ngasekupheleni kuka-2022. I-Alberta ibeka umzuzwana we-1.3 gw wamandla afakiwe, ngemuva kwe-ONTARIO nge-2.7 GW. Izwe lisethe okuhloswe inani eliphelele lelanga lika-35 GW ngo-2050.
