Last year the equivalent of 48% of the country’s electricity, a rise from 43% in 2016, came from renewable sources as the country edges towards ambitious targets for clean energy by 2030\.

The Energy Generation in Wales 2017 report showed that Wales generated more than twice what it consumed in electricity last year, making Wales a significant exporter of electricity to England, Ireland and the wider European network. 

The report, published ahead of a debate in plenary today (Tuesday, 20 November), also showed that:

* 22% of electricity generated was from renewable sources, up from 18% in 2016
* There are more than 67,000 renewable energy projects in Wales with a combined capacity of almost 3,700 MW. 84% of this capacity is renewable electricity, 16% is renewable heat capacity
* Approximately 66% of renewable electricity generated in Wales comes from wind
* Wales produces approximately 2\.1 TWh of useable renewable heat, equivalent to 10\.5% of Welsh domestic heat demand
* There are over 63,000 locally owned renewable energy projects, with a total capacity of 750 MW. This is a 30% increase in capacity from 2016
* Wales now has 529MW of renewable electricity capacity in local ownership, against a target of 1 GW by 2030

In September last year, the Cabinet Secretary for Energy, Planning and Rural Affairs Lesley Griffiths announced she wanted Wales to generate 70 per cent of its electricity consumption from renewable sources by 2030\. The Cabinet Secretary also set an ambitious target for 1GW of locally owned renewable electricity, and an expectation that all new renewable energy projects should have at least an element of local ownership by 2020\.

The Welsh Government is supporting a number of projects through our Welsh Government Energy Service to in a bid to drive more locally owned energy developments.  For example, Gower Regeneration’s 1 MW solar farm at Dunvant is Wales’ first community owned solar farm, whilst the Garreg Llwyd Hill wind farm in Radnorshire can provide electricity for the equivalent of approximately 26,000 homes and provides a significant community benefit fund.

Cabinet Secretary Lesley Griffiths said:  


> “I am delighted that Wales is continuing to towards our ambitious renewable energy targets and this report shows the impressive progress over the last year. 
> 
> "With nearly half of our electricity consumption coming from renewable sources, as well as us being over half of the way to meeting our target for renewable electricity capacity in local ownership, we are seeing the huge steps made by the sector. 
> 
> “As a government we are committed to accelerating the transition of our energy system in Wales, particularly through the increased use of renewable energy.  Our priorities are to increase energy efficiency, reduce our reliance on energy generated from fossil fuels and to actively manage the transition to a low carbon economy to benefit Wales.”

Y llynedd daeth yr hyn oedd yn cyfateb i 48% o drydan y wlad, i fyny o 43% yn 2016, o ynni adnewyddadwy wrth i’r wlad gamu’n bwyllog at y targed uchelgeisiol o ynni glân erbyn 2030\. 

Mae’r adroddiad Cynhyrchu Ynni yng Nghymru 2017 yn dangos i Gymru llynedd gynhyrchu mwy na dwywaith y trydan a ddefnyddiodd, gan wneud Cymru’n allforiwr trydan pwysig i Loegr, Iwerddon a’r rhwydwaith Ewropeaidd ehangach. 

Dywed yr adroddiad hefyd, a gyhoeddwyd cyn y cyfarfod llawn heddiw (dydd Mawrth, 20 Tachwedd): 

* Daeth 22% o’r trydan a gynhyrchwyd o ffynonellau adnewyddadwy, i fyny o 18% yn 2016
* Ceir rhagor na 67,000 o brosiectau ynni adnewyddadwy yng Nghymru, gyda chapasiti rhyngddynt o bron 3,700MW. Mae 84% o’r capasiti hwnnw’n drydan adnewyddadwy, 16% yn wres adnewyddadwy
* Pŵer y gwynt sy’n cynhyrchu rhyw 66% o’r trydan adnewyddadwy yng Nghymru
* Mae Cymru’n cynhyrchu tua 2\.1 TWh o ynni adnewyddadwy, sy’n cyfateb i 10\.5% o’r galw domestig am wres yng Nghymru
* Ceir dros 63,000 o brosiectau ynni adnewyddadwy sy’n eiddo i bobl leol, gyda chapasiti rhyngddynt o 750MW.  Dyma gynnydd o 30% yn y capasiti ers 2016

Mae 529MW o gapasiti trydan adnewyddadwy Cymru mewn dwylo lleol, sy’n cymharu â’r targed o 1GW erbyn 2030\.  

Ym mis Medi llynedd, cyhoeddodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Ynni, Cynllunio a Materion Gwledig Lesley Griffiths ei bod am i 70% o’r trydan y mae Cymru’n defnyddio erbyn 2030 ddod o ffynonellau adnewyddadwy. Mae ganddi darged hefyd bod prosiectau sy’n eiddo i bobl leol yn cynhyrchu 1GW o drydan adnewyddadwy erbyn 2030 a bod o leiaf rhan o bob prosiect ynni adnewyddadwy newydd mewn dwylo lleol erbyn 2020\. 

Mae Llywodraeth Cymru’n cefnogi nifer o brosiectau trwy Wasanaeth Ynni Llywodraeth Cymru er mwyn sbarduno mwy o ddatblygiadau ynni lleol.  Er enghraifft, fferm solar 1MW Gower Regeneration yn Nyfnant yw fferm solar gymunedol gyntaf Cymru, ac mae fferm wynt Bryn Carreg Lwyd yn Sir Faesyfed yn gallu cynhyrchu digon o drydan ar gyfer rhyw 26,000 o gartrefi ac yn darparu cronfa les sylweddol i’r gymuned. 

Meddai Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, Lesley Griffiths:


> “Rwy’n hynod falch bod Cymru’n dal i gamu tuag at ein targedau ynni adnewyddadwy uchelgeisiol ac mae’r adroddiad hwn yn dangos y cynnydd aruthrol a fu ers llynedd.
> 
> “Gyda bron hanner y trydan a ddefnyddiwn yn dod o ffynonellau adnewyddadwy, yn ogystal â bod dros hanner ffordd at gyrraedd ein targed o ran y capasiti trydan adnewyddadwy sydd mewn dwylo lleol, rydyn ni’n gweld hefyd bod y sector yn cymryd camau anferth ymlaen. 
> 
> “Fel Llywodraeth, rydyn ni wedi ymrwymo i weld ein system ynni’n newid yn gyflymach, yn enwedig trwy gynyddu’r defnydd o ynni adnewyddadwy.  Ein blaenoriaeth yw defnyddio ynni’n fwy effeithiol, lleihau ein dibyniaeth ar ynni o danwyddau ffosil a gweithio’n galed i reoli’r newid i economi carbon isel er lles Cymru.”
