RES target for
Europe
20 % by 2020
The European Parliament key recommendations
- a 20% binding target for renewable energies in total energy
consumption by 2020 (equivalent to 33% electricity in 2020, up
from a level of 12.9% in 20024);
- tax cuts to encourage renewables;
- fair market conditions for electricity produced from renewable
energies;
- end to distortions in the energy market (ownership unbundling,
market concentration, environmental harmful subsidies to fossil
fuels and nuclear energy);
- a clear increase of R&D budget for renewables in the upcoming
FP7 to compensate the historical bias in EU energy research
programmes;
20 % by 2020
• A contribution of RES to total inland
consumption of 20 % by 2020 is possible
• The contribution of RES to electricity
production will be more than 33 % in 2020
• The contribution of RES to heat production
will be 25 % in 2020.
AGR needed to meet the White Paper
Targets
Benefits of 20 % target
 Total RES investment of 443 billion € in the period
2001-2020
 126,7 – 323,9 billion € of cumulated avoided
external costs between 2001 and 2020
 115,8 billion € of cumulative avoided fuel cost
reduction in EU 15 (2001-2020)
 Creation of more than 2 million full time jobs until
2020
 728 million tons/year of CO2 emission reduction in
2020, representing a decrease of 17,3 %
compared to 1990

Conclusion
• RE has the technological potential to replace
fossil fuels as mainstream energy source.
• RE is integral part of the energy supply in many
countries today.
• RE has tangible economic, ecological and social
benefit.
• BUT: RE market development depends on a
coherent, predictable, supportive political & legal
framework.
Think the `Unthinkable`
The EREC `Advanced Policies
Scenario` (APS)
Why Scenarios?
•
•
•
•
images of alternative futures
neither predictions nor forecasts
image of how the future could unfold
useful tools for investigating alternative future
developments and their implications
Scenarios can create a vision for the
future and guide decision makers
`Scenarios help us understand the limitations of
our ‘mental maps’ of the world – to think the
unthinkable, anticipate the unknowable and
utilise both to make better strategic decisions.`
The IEA AS is a welcomed move, but it
has too many limitations – it does
not think the `unthinkable`:
A Substantial Policy Shift
Assumptions Based On:
• Ambitious growth rates
• Additional support measures
• Regions already active in the promotion of
renewables will increase their efforts
• Higher prices for conventional energy supply
• Growing support for electrification of the poor regions
by renewables.
• Implementation of the Kyoto protocol and additional
measures
• International cooperation
• Total energy consumption are based on a scenario
from the IIASA

What is not the Solution Hydrogen
Efficiency of different engine solutions
•
•
•
•
diesel: 21 -23%
hydrogen from gas reforming: 30%
Hydrogen from electrolyses: 12 -15%
Hybrid: 30 - 35%
nuclear hydrogen for cars/lorries
Overall efficiency of nuclear hydrogen 12%
– 33% of efficiency to produce electricity from NP
– 5 kWh to produce 1m3 H2 (electroloyses)
– 1m3 H2 produces 1.8 kWh el
To fuel 40% of world transport demand in 2060
would require at least 4000 NPP of 1000 MW

A Streamlined Internal
Electricity Market
Competition in the internal electricity market ?
“Much work still has to be done to deal with the dominant and even
monopolistic positions of the incumbent operators and
investments will be needed to guarantee the interoperability of
grids and networks, interconnection and an adequate level of
capabilities and infrastructure”
Loyola de Palacio, 13 October 2004
“The current level of competition is not encouraging. (…) In most
national markets, customer switching rates are modest,
substantial barriers remain for new entrants, market structures are
highly concentrated and, last but not least a single European energy
market has not been achieved.”
Mario Monti, 21 September 2004
Distortions in the internal electricity market
•
4 Commission benchmarking reports: Endless distortions
•
National and regional monopolies / oligopolies
•
No real consumer choice
•
Lack of interconnectors
•
Little separation of production and transmission
•
Power companies acting on both demand and supply side in the
wholesale market
•
75% of electricity subsidies goes to conventional power
•
Euratom shields nuclear (33% of total EU production) from
internal market rules (since 1958!)
•
Complete absence of any meaningful internalisation of
environmental costs
Liberalised Markets?
• 95% of the EU power market is still affected
by huge market distortions
• Electricity prices do not reflect full costs as
long as polluter pays principle is missing
• Subsidies -direct and indirect- to conventional
power production is still massive
• National and regional monopolies /
oligopolies
Competition not effective
Ownership-Market Concentration
