停電頻傳台灣各地區無預警輪流大停電,讓許多民眾感到很困擾,並且擔心隨著夏天的到來,停電的情況會不會再度發生。那「停電」的英文該怎麼說?火力發電、核能發電、再生能源等發電方式的英文又該怎麼說?趕快跟著我們一起學起來!

 

Lucy: Many power outages have occurred in Taoyuan recently, which has been very troubling for my friends living there.
露西:最近桃園發生了好多次停電,令我住在桃園的朋友很困擾。

Ben: Taiwan Power Company said the cause of the recent outages was related to cable line failures and heavy thunderstorms.
班:台灣電力公司表示,近期的停電原因與電纜線故障和大雷雨有關。

Lucy: Some scholars and people believe that the underlying reason is a shortage of electricity. There’s a better chance that there will be more outages during the summer if it is caused by power shortage.
露西:也有一些學者和民眾認為根本原因是缺電。如果是因為缺電,到夏季有更高的可能性會再停電。

Ben: Why is there a concern about the lack of electricity? Don’t we have thermal, nuclear and solar power?
班:為什麼有缺電的疑慮?我們不是有火力發電、核能發電和太陽能發電嗎?

Lucy: The goal is to completely phase out nuclear power by 2025, but the generation capacity from renewable sources is still insufficient.

Ben: Although nuclear energy has been included in green energy, the disposal of nuclear waste is still a big problem.
班:雖然核能已經被納入綠電中,然而核廢料的處理是一個大問題。

Lucy: Indeed, “carbon reduction” and “nuclear abolition” are a dilemma.
