中国储能网讯：日前，美国调研机构Navigant Research发布了对1869个全球并网和偏远微电网项目调查报告。报告表明截至2017年最后一个季度，全球微电网总容量为20.7GW，目前还有60个新项目正在开发中。
根据Navigant Research的调查数据，自2017年第二季度以来，全球微电网的产能得到了更多的提升，特别是在中东和非洲地区，其远程微电网项目在容量和项目数量方面在全部微电网七个行业领域中继续领先。
“尽管亚太地区和北美地区的微电网容量仍然占据了所有微电网容量的四分之三，但这次主要的变化是中东和非洲地区的微电网总容量超过3 GW，在所有地区中跃居第三位。”Navigant Research公司研究分析师Adam Wilson说，“在这次更新的报告中，欧洲地区微电网的容量出现了不寻常的下降，总共只有1.8GW，这是由于一些项目进行更新，其总数向下调整以正确反映其当前状态。”
该研究公司的报告指出目前已有32个微电网的项目被搁置。
这个调查报告中，在2017年第四季度对全球六个地区的微电网部署情况进行了追踪，并整理了规划和部署阶段的已知并网和远程微电网项目的数据。
Navigant Research公司在去年发布了2017年第二季度微电网部署情况的更新报告，显示了微电网在商业和工业领域得到了强劲的增长，这两个行业正在开发和建设的微电网项目的容量增加了2GW以上。（中国储能网独家编译，转载请注明来源）
20.7GW of microgrid capacity added in 2017, report
February 2018
Navigant Research has identified 1,869 global grid-tied and remote microgrid projects, representing 20.7 GW of operating, under development, and proposed microgrid capacity and 60 new projects as of the last quarter of 2017.
According to Navigant Research, tracked microgrid capacity has experienced a boost, particularly in the Middle East & Africa region since the second quarter of 2017.
Remote projects continued to lead all the seven microgrid segments in terms of both capacity and number of projects.
“While Asia Pacific and North America still account for almost three-quarters of all microgrid capacity in the Tracker, the major shift in this update is the Middle East & Africa jumping to third place among all regions with more than 3 GW of total capacity,” says Adam Wilson, research analyst with Navigant Research.
“Europe showed an unusual drop in capacity in this update, with a total of 1.8 GW, due to a number of project updates where totals were adjusted downward to correctly represent their current status.”
The research company identified 32 projects on hold.
The report Microgrid Deployment Tracker 4Q17 tracks data on known grid-tied and remote microgrid projects in the proposal, planning, and deployed stages in six geographies.
Last year, the research company released the 2Q 2017 update of its Microgrid Deployment Tracker which revealed strong growth in the commercial and industrial sector.
The commercial and industrial segment added more than 2GW of capacity for projects that are operating, under development, and proposed. Read more....
