Renewable energy sources (RES)… • reduce CO2 emissions • decrease import dependency by diversifying sources of production • create competitive industries with lead market potential. Recent policy developments in Europe … 7 December 2005 The Commission publishes evaluation of support schemes "The & 23 January 2008 support of electricity from renewable energy sources" 10 January 2007 … The Commission publishes the Renewable Energy Road Map (COM (2006) 848 final) 9 March 2007 …

The Council of the European Union agrees … Æ to increase RES-share in EU energy mix up to 20% by 2020 Æ on binding overall RES target for each Member State Æ National targets covering the whole energy sector. Æ Minimum 10% biofuels in each Member State.

23 January 2008 … The Commission publishes the Proposal of the new RES directive … … the overall 20% target for RES was broken down into national RES targets for 2020 …

"This report presents an updated review of the performance of support schemes using the same indicators presented in the 2005 report. It finds that, as in 2005, welladapted feed in tariff regimes are generally the most efficient and effective support schemes for promoting renewable electricity." Fraunhofer ISI

Challenges with respect to support schemes Policy makers are looking for the right balance between a harmonisation of support and the continuation of national instruments in order to: (1) not disrupt currently successful instruments by superimposing a harmonized system that may or may not be optimally designed; (2) increase the overall effectiveness and efficiency on a European scale (3) improve the compatibility of RES support with other community policies such as creating a single European electricity market and establishing an effective CO2 abatement framework and (4) allow Member States to reach their national targets if efficient and effective national instruments are implemented. Two approaches discussed are GO trade or common premium Fraunhofer ISI

5

Approaches for flexibility between Member States need methodologies for sharing costs and benefits

Fraunhofer ISI

6

Approaches for sharing costs and benefits All benefits are allocated as international gains only Additional costs due the RES-E generation for producers, which must / should be reimbursed to generators

Costs [Euro/MWhel]

National benefits due the RES-E generation (employment, rural development, etc.)

Transfer

Net additional costs due the RES-E generation internationally relevant (= additional costs – national benefits) Average net additional costs due the RES-E generation, internationally relevant Additional (transfer) costs for society due to unique burden sharing

Clustering of feed-in systems

Alternative flexibility measure based on clustering of different countries.

RES feed-in premium systems

-

Group of participating countries mutually fulfils the target of (additional) renewable (electricity) share

-

Clear and transparent methodology is needed for sharing the resulting transfer cost due to RES support between the countries…

-

… which should, in principle, reflect the share of national and international costs & benefits caused by additional RES deployment.

Case 3

fully harmonised premiums
