10 Current level of support and costs per Member State Example of wind onshore - Sept. 2009

11 Main policy developments on MS level Member States adapt ambition level of their policies to target level, e.g. banding of quota system in IT, RO and UK, new tariff levels for RES-E in DE, NL, SI,, UK feed-in system for RES-H and small scale RES-E MSs start to analyse the impact of specific flexibility measures on their renewable energy sector, first talks between different MSs and between MSs and third countries Too little progress on the reduction of non-economic barriers Financing constraints have been significant during last year and are not resolved for many Currently the forecast documents and National Renewable Energy Action Plans under development in all Member States

12 Potentials

13 Potentials by 2020 as compared to the targets of the Directive 20% RES by proposed national RES targets 80% Total realisable RES potential up to 2020 Proposed RES targets for % 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Austria Belgium Denmark Finland France Germany Greece Ireland Italy Luxembourg Netherlands Portugal Spain Sweden United Kingdom Cyprus Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Malta Poland Slovakia Slovenia Bulgaria Romania EU27 Share in (final) energy demand by 2020 [%] How the European Commission set the targets FLAT RATE & GDP-Variation Brussels, November i.e.: 18th RES-target = RES 2005% + 50% *RES NEW % + 50%* RES NEW % GDP-weighting - first mover bonus

14 Modelling costs and benefits

15 Future perspectives: a scenario on how to meet the challenge Green-X balanced scenario Historical development Future development RES-E - energy output [TWh/year] Wind offshore Wind onshore Tide & wave Solar thermal electricity Photovoltaics Hydro large-scale Hydro small-scale Geothermal electricity Biowaste Solid biomass Biogas Renewable Energy Roadmap (European Commission, January 2007) European Union 20% Renewable Energies by RES-H - energy output [Mtoe/year] Historical development Future development Solar thermal heat Geothermal - heat pumps RES-T - energy output [Mtoe/year] Geothermal - non heat pumps Biomass heat Historical development Future development Biofuels

16 Macroeconomic impacts

20 Cooperation Measures

21 Designing and analysing different cooperation measures Statistical transfers Joint projects Joint support schemes Physical transfer from 3rd countries

22 Analysing future RES deployment Country-specific contributions to achieve 20% RES by 2020? RES deployment by 2020 [TWh] Austria Belgium Bulgaria (incl. biofuel trade Required RES deployment by 2020 Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Hungary Ireland Imported RES volumes RES volumes for export National RES deployment for domestic target fulfillment Italy Latvia Lithuania the required flexibility to reach proposed national RES targets Deployment of RES in total (in absolute terms by 2020 at country level) trade) and the required statistical transfer between MS (i.e. imports / exports) (according to the "strengthened national policies scenario using the Green-X model) Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Poland Portugal Romania Slovakia Slovenia Spain Source: EEG, TU Vienna Required imports / exports by 2020 ~3% of total generation Sweden United Kingdom

23 Main studies on NREAPs in detail

24 Examples of ongoing studies in the area EU Projects analysing the implementation of the 2020 RES Directive at European and national level, e.g. RE-SHAPING: Shaping an effective and efficient European renewable energy market REPAP2020: Renewable Energy Policy Action Paving the way towards 2020 National studies to implement 2020 RES Directive Studies with international organisations assessing the options for cooperation with 3rd countries

25 Detailed objectives of the studies Ex-ante design of national road maps / action plans and ex-post evaluation of the national renewable action plans Evaluation of the effectiveness and efficiency of present national RES policies Design of improved policy schemes and cooperation mechanisms Assisting MS to derive the forecast documents, incl. surplus & deficit of domestic generation compared to national target Assessment of interactions of RES policies with overall climate, energy and innovation policy and with the (liberalised) energy markets Analyse the impact of financing instruments on RES development

26 Drafting national roadmaps in the REPAP2020 project Main task: develop roadmaps for each of the 27 MS including the sectors electricity, heat and transport Involve the viewpoint of national stakeholders Compiling the 27 national roadmaps to one European RES industry roadmap Roadmaps will contain the current status, future potentials, detailed deployment scenarios per technology and sector as well as the necessary policies and framework conditions until Roadmaps will serve as a basis for the drafting of the National Action Plans.

27 Main objectives of the RE-Shaping project Development of a comprehensive policy background for RES support instruments Assisting Member State governments in setting up sector specific RES targets and action plans for 2020 (and 2030) as required by the proposed RES Directive Deriving best practice RES policy options, including guarantee of origin trading to allow the achievement of national 2020 targets at lowest cots for European consumers Producing a sound analysis of an in improved integration of RES policies with emission trading, the internal energy market and innovation policy. Providing Member State governments detailed and scientifically based input on diverse support policy options for RES; in this respect assisting Member State governments in developing sound policies to foster RES market penetration as required by the proposed RES Directive.

28 Main objectives of the RE-Shaping project Providing the European Commission and Member States with scientifically based and statistically robust indicators to measure the success of currently implemented policies. Proposing innovative financing schemes, which allow for lower costs and better capital availability in RES financing. Initiation of National Policy Processes which attempt to stimulate debate and offer a meeting place for key stakeholders aiming to discuss drawing up and implementing RES targets as well as options to improve national policies to foster RES market penetration. Assessing options to implement cooperation measures of the Directive
