1 U.S. Small Wind Market: Progress through Challenges Larry Flowers American Wind Energy Association

3 2011 U.S. Small Wind Market Highlights The 27 small wind turbine manufacturers from North America and Europe responding to AWEA s survey reported total 2011 worldwide sales of $397 million USD, totaling more than 21,000 units and 64 megawatts (MW). U.S. manufacturers combined domestic sales and exports were 33 MW, a 13.4 percent increase over Total U.S. cumulative sales (including imports) reached 198 MW, representing 151,300 total units installed in the United States in 2011 (annually displacing 178,000 metric tons of CO2) As a result of the poor economy and inconsistent incentives in 2011, the U.S. small wind market declined by 26 percent, with 19 MW of new sales, representing 7,303 turbines, and $115 million in installed system revenue; sales revenues declined by 17 percent, with units sold down by 6.5 %. Fifty-four percent of U.S. manufacturers sales capacity went to overseas markets, reflecting a dramatic increase (from 7.8 MW in 2010 to 17.7 MW in 2011). Eleven international manufacturers (including 4 from U.S.) reported total sales exceeding 1 MW. Domestic sales by U.S. manufacturers accounted for an 80 percent share of the 2011 U.S. market Sales of turbines in the United States for on-grid installations remained dominant, with a 91 percent market share of sales capacity, continuing the 2010 trend. Twenty-seven manufacturers with a U.S. sales presence, including those from Europe and Canada, reported sales of 57 wind turbine models The average installed cost of small wind turbines in the United States in 2011 was $6,040/kW, an 11 percent increase from 2010.

13 2011 Industry/Market Developments U.S. economy remained sluggish; residential market especially effected ; Ag and commercial markets for >10kW turbines remained good Dramatic shift in export markets (127% increase in kw exported) U.S. state incentive markets in turmoil (e.g., CA, NJ, WI, OH, NV) Innovative state policies in several eastern states showed promise First two turbine models certified to the AWEA standard by Small Wind Certification Council (SWCC); an additional 26 were in testing Interstate Turbine Advisory Council (ITAC) formed to address state incentive qualification guidelines and turbine performance requirements Average installed cost of SWT installed in US was $6040/kW, an 11% increase from 2010 U.S. small wind industry represents 1600 full-time equivalent jobs U.S. manufacturers maintained % domestic content
14 U.S. Small Wind Industry Challenges Inconsistent, erratic state incentive programs Non-certified turbine entrants Planning & Zoning ordinances (height, setbacks, sound) State RPS solar set-asides & solar RECs Competitive economics (PV, rural tariffs) Financing Utility resistance Site performance prediction USDA REAP program dramatically reduced USFWS guidelines* Public loss of energy/environment focus
