7 Energy concept vision for 2050 placeholder partner logo

8 Energy concept the framework The Federal Government's energy concept for an environmentally sound, reliable and affordable energy supply (28. September 2010) Ambitious CO2 reduction targets High targets for renewable energy and energy efficiency Defines measures in order to reach targets Contains a plan for financing the implementation of the concept Puts in place a scientific monitoring to verify if targets have been achieved

9 Energy concept targets today Reduction of CO2 emissions (base year 1990) Share of renewables of gross final energy consumption Share of renewables of electricity consumption - 23 % - 40 % - 55 % - 70 % - 80 % 11 % 18 % 30 % 45 % 60 % 20 % 35 % 50 % 65 % 80 % Reduction of gross final energy consupmtion (base year 2008) - 6 % - 20 % - 50 %

10 Energy concept fields of action Grid expansion New flexible power plants gas and coal fired Renewable energy technologies Energy efficiency measures Energy research e.g. storage technologies Dialogue with relevant players Phase-out of nuclear energy until 2022 as reaction on Fukushima

11 Energy concept the fields of action Grid expansion New flexible power plants gas and coal fired Renewable energy technologies Energy efficiency measures Energy research e.g. storage technologies Dialogue with relevant players Phase-out of nuclear energy until 2022 as reaction on Fukushima

12 Highest priority: Grid expansion

13 Energy concept grid expansion Acceleration of grid expansion is heart of the energy concept Transmission network is bottleneck Grid expansion lays behind implementation of renewables (90 km since 2005; additional demand: about 4300 km) Determination of need is essential Coordination of grid expansion plan nationwide Grid expansion plan for next 10 years (annual upgrade) Important: enhancement of public acceptance by consultations of the public Law for the Acceleration of Grid Expansion - Netzausbaubeschleunigungsgesetz (NABEG) Reduction of planning period from 10 to 4 years

17 Energy concept plans for renewables Expansion of renewable energy use At the same time stepping up pressure for innovation and cost reduction Establishing competitiveness of renewable technologies in the market Expansion of offshore wind farming Target: 25 GW by 2030 Special Offshore Wind Energy Programme by Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW) with a total credit volume of 5 billion at market interest rates Make licencing procedure more efficient: one-stop-shop

18 Energy concept plans for renewables Expansion of onshore wind farming Most economic potential for expanding renewables in the short and medium term Repowering Enhance public accepance (e.g. by reducing light emissions) Sustainable and efficient use of bioenenergy Important role due to broad spectrum of use and good storability Can make an important contribution to the grid integration Sources will be imported - need to ensure sustainable production of these sources

19 Renewable Energy Sources Act (RESA) placeholder partner logo

20 Principles of the Renewable Energy Soures Act RESA since August 2000 (revised in 2004, 2009, 2011) Guaranteed grid access for renewable energy plants Priority of feed-in for renewable electricity, purchase and transmission obligation for utilities Fixed feed-in tariffs regulated by law, guaranteed for 20 years

21 How does the feed-in mechanism work? Government Provides for grid access, sets feed-in tariffs Utility renewable electricity Feed-in remuneraton Consumer = RES-E Producer conventional electricity Money for conventional electricity + RESA

22 RESA - Feed-in tariffs 2012 Feed-in tariff [ cents/kwh] Payment time degression rate annually Hydro power < 5 MW years 1% Large hydro > 5 MW years 1% Biomass* years 2% Geothermal** 25 (+5) 20 years 5% by 2018 Wind onshore*** 8,93 20 years 1,5% by 2012 Wind offshore*** years 5% by % by 2018 Photovoltaics up to 10, 40, 1,000 & 10,000 kw p **** 20 years 1% per month * Basic tariff only; ** additional bonus for electricty from petrothermal technlogy; *** increased initial tariff E; **** Depending on annual market volume

23 Cost components for one kilowatt-hour of electricity for household consumers in Germany 2012: ct/kwh 2013 expected: ~ 5.2 ct/kwh

24 Conclusions placeholder partner logo

25 Conclusions New energy concept offers many opportunities for economic development Safe and affordeable energy supply is essential for Germany as business location Therefore the guiding principles of energy policy are: Rapid development of renewables in an efficient and secure manner At the same time strengthen competitiveness of Germany on international markets
