100% Renewable Power Nightmare, Dream or Reality? Antonella Battaglini Kyoto Club, Roma 16-02-2011
Energiekonzept Global and European Development Roadmap to 2050 Slide 2
Nightmare - Incubo ...“Affinché i prezzi rimangano accessibili a tutti non possiamo fare a meno di carbone e nucleare“ (appello dell‘industria tedesca al governo conservatore) Dream - Sogno “Dobbiamo essere realisti: la Germania ha bisogno di carbone e nucleare“
Nightmare response The German ”Energiekonzept” An attempt for a comprehensive strategy for the time between now and 2050
Targets 100 90 80 70 Target (%) 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 2008 2020 2030 2040 2050 GHG reduction (base: 1990) REN REN power Power demand reduction
Target scenarios: Power 22-31% import (roughly ~30% less electricity half renewable) 19-24% fossil & nuclear power 75-81% of generation renewable
Target scenarios: Power Offshore 2050: 17- 28 GW Onshore 2050: 36 GW PV 2020: 33 GW PV 2050: 39 GW
How to do this Markets; fossil and nuclear power plants • Creation of a functioning European power market • Extension of nuclear power operation time until 2035 • Support for CCS (only small (
How to do this Cost-efficient expansion of renewables • Faster reduction of PV FITs • Dispatchability bonus/market premium for virtual power plants - Targeted operation of biomass as back-up for fluctuating REN • Short term: higher but shorter FIT for offshore wind • Medium term: Tendering for offshore wind, instead of FIT • Adaptation of legislation for building permits for onshore/offshore wind expansion
How to do this Grid expansion • 2011: ”Zielnetz 2050” - Grid expansion; overlay grid; North Sea grid and cluster-connections for offshore wind; better integration of DE in EU grid • Faster grid expansion - Increase public acceptance through ”information offensive” • German rolling 10-year grid plan (yearly updates) • Review of grid tariffs • Introduction of Smart meters (no concrete target)
How to do this Integration of renewables • More market-based REN support - Optional market premium to be introduced in 2012 EEG review? • More responsibilities for REN in system, control energy • Review of possibilities for capacity market • Expansion of storage capacities - Exploitation of all pumped storage potentials in DE - Usage of Norwegian/Alpine pumped storage potentials - Increased R&D in various storage technologies - 1 million electric cars by 2020, 6 million by 2030 – use as storage?
Conclusions for the Energiekonzept No real strategy after 2020 Lack of coherence in measures and numbers Clearly in need for improvement Attempt to reopen the nuclear debate beyond life extension Denial of a rising industry
Realtà – Nel 2009 malgrado la crisi finaziaria EU e USA hanno investito più nelle rinnovabili che non in nucleare e energie fossili Global REN installed capacity in 2009 GW 78 for $ 119bn Global REN capacity 2009 . Source Global Wind capacity 2009 . Source GWEC 2010; IHA 2010; REN21 2010 GWEC 2010
Realtà – Nel 2010 EU ha investito 65 milliardi nel solare soltanto. In Cina 19 milliardi di credito sono stati garantiti al solare da una sola banca. Stocks crescono del 65% Global REN installed capacity in 2009 GW 78 for $ 119bn PV Capacity Growth Source EPIA 2010
Realtà I prezzi dell’elettricità continuano a calare, malgrado I prezzi al consumatore continuino a salire. L’eolico ha già raggiunto grid parity e determina il calo dei prezzi sui mercati. Non è ragionevole mantenere supporti per iI fotovoltaico ai livelli italiani, (E. Council resolution) Nei mercati finanziari non c’è disponibilità di capitale per nuove centrali nucleari La rete continua ad essere indispensabile per ogni scenario
Reality – Costs of REN technologies have been decreasing and some already reached grid parity.

100% renewable electricity A 2050 vision and roadmap for Europe and North Africa
A roadmap to 2050 Key findings: 1. It is possible to create a 100% REN power system in EU and NA by only using processes that have already started. This is not a radical proposal, but neither is it trivial. 2. The grid is the key enabler & most grid issues must be completed before 2020. 3. No technology breakthrough is needed. 4. A European Approach is needed Key observations: • Most enabling areas need to be completed before 2020. • Predictability and political leadership is required • A European perspective needs to replace national ones in strategic planning We need to start now...
