July 17 (SeeNews) - The UK meets all its renewable energy and carbon targets on time under just one of four scenarios set out in National Grid Plc's (LON:NG) 2015 Future Energy Scenarios report, which was launched on Wednesday.<br /> <br /> The scenarios consider differing policy and economic landscapes and their potential impact on energy supply and demand. In the Gone Green scenario the climate targets are achieved with the help of a strong green agenda and underlying economic growth. Under it, renewables provide 34% of the electricity supply by 2020, with wind power accounting for 18% of total output. The report (<a href="http://media.nationalgrid.com/media/1169/future_energy_scenarios_2015.pdf">http://media.nationalgrid.com/media/1169/future_energy_scenarios_2015.pdf</a>) says that the growth in renewable generation required to meet the 2020 climate change goals under the Gone Green scenario is centred on wind, both onshore and offshore, and solar, in view of the maturity of the latter technology and the opportunity for large-scale and rapid deployment.
