Renewable Energy in Europe - past and Future
• Most official energy forecasts extrapolate „business as usual scenarios“
• If no structural problem in conventional energy supply is perceived, there is no need to change to renewable fuels
• Under present economic conditions renewable energy sources are uneconomic or marginally economic (neglecting external costs and subsidies of fossil and nuclear fuels)
• However, if climate change is a real issue, if nuclear has serious problems and if oil becomes a scarce commodity, economic conditions will change in favor of renewable energy technologies
L-B-Systemtechnik
Renewables and the Energy Sector - a different view
• If oil production will peak soon, this will have serious consequences on economy and energy prices
• In contrast to 1980, energy efficiency as well as renewable energy is at a much more sophisticated technological and economic level which allows for market introduction on a broad scale
• The future will show which perspective is closer to reality: The IEA-forecast or the LBST-forecast! It is not unlikely that future energy supply develops as seen by LBST:

EU-15 Electricity Production from Wind energy
• In the 1980ies, Denmark started to establish a wind energy industry Today the Danish wind energy industry has more employees than the ship building industry
• In the 1990ies, Germany supported the wind energy industry by feed-in rules [Renewable Energy Act] which gave marginal earnings (at favorable sites and with good planning the return on investment is reasonable, at poor sites or with poor management the return on investment is negative)
• Most European Countries have not yet even started to use its wind energy potentials
• Even under „poor“ economic conditions wind energy has growth rates at about 40 percent p.y. since more than a decade. Already today the share of wind energy in electricity generation is above 1.5 %.
• As soon as even pure market economics are in favor of wind energy, the growth rates could enhance and swap over to those countries with vast resources

EU-15: How much wind energy is it?
• In 2002 Europe added wind capacity which was five times as much as that of an average nuclear plant.
• The electricity generated in 2002 will be equal to that of five nuclear power plants
• If this amount would be produced from oil fired power plants, it would consume 75 mio barrel/year or 200 kb/day.
• Over 20 years life time this saves about 1.5 Gb of oil
• Planning times of new wind parks are in the range of 2 - 3 years before grid connection is achieved
• Within the last ten years 40 TWh/yr electricity from wind are added. This is equivalent to the planning, construction and connection of five large nuclear power plants. Would it be possible, to add five nuclear power plants within ten years (including planning, construction and grid connection)?
L-B-Systemtechnik
EU 15 - Electricity Production from Wind Energy - Forecast
•If 2002 would mark the peak year of new wind capacity additions and the decline would be symmetric to the growth, then wind energy in Europe would end up with about 4 percent share on electricity production •The European Wind Energy Association expects wind energy to contribute about 5 % of EU-15 electricity supply until 2010 and above 10 percent until 2020. This is equivalent to 16 % annual growth
• The actual growth rate is even twice as much (35 % p.y.)

Worldwide wind energy capacity
• Forecasts by the IEA for oil, gas or nuclear energy were always much too optimistic Forecasts by the IEA for renewable energy are always bullish pessimistic
• The IEA World Energy Outlook 1998 forecast for the year 2010 could be proofed to be wrong almost three years after its publication
• With respect to the IEA world energy outlook 2002 forecast even at end 2002 reality was about five years ahead of the forecast
• In 1999 BTM consult published a road map for achieving a share of 10 percent on world electricity production in 2020 by wind energy. („Windforce ten“) Already in 2002 the reality is ahead of that road map

EU-15 Electricity Production from Photovoltaics
• The growth of PV was largest in Germany over the last decade (~ 30 %) Since the existence of the feed-in law in 1999 the growth rate increased strongly
• Today, installed PV capacity in Germany is at the same level as wind energy was ten years ago
• The costs of grid connected PV systems have reduced by a factor of three over the last 15 years and today are close to 0.6 EUR/kWh in middle Europe. Since the introduction of the German feed in law in 1999 total cost of grid connected PV reduced by about 15 percent or 5 percent annualy.
• Presently, BP alone employs more than 1000 employees in the PV business

EU-15 Electricity Production from Geothermal Energy
• Electricity production from geothermal grew about 3 percent annually
•Today only Portugal, France and Italy use geothermal electricity
• New methods (e.g. hot-dry rock; ORC electricity generation) open a huge potential for electricity generation
• The Geothermal Society expects electricity generation from geothermal sources at 16 TWh in 2010 and between 24 - 64 TWh in 2020 (Ferrara- Declaration 1999)

EU-15 Electricity Production from All Renewables
• Today Renewable Electricity supply has a share of 14 - 15 percent
• If present trends continue for the next 20 years, this share will increase to more than 20 percent in 2010 and to more than 50 percent in 2020 (provided total electricity supply will remain constant; note that this holds even when hydro is kept constant and when wind energy will rise at half of its historical growth rate)
• If trends of „best practice countries“ apply to all EU countries this share could rise even faster

EU-15 Thermal End Use Energy Supply by Solar Energy
• Average growth rate of Solar thermal energy use is about 10 % annually
• In Greece Solar thermal energy has a much higher share than in Italy, Portugal or Spain with comparable solar isolation. This is mainly due to different political support
• The contribution in 2020 could rise to between 0.5 - 3 % if present trends continue (lower figure 10 % annual growth rate, upper figure 20 % annually)

• At growth rates applicable to „best practice“ countries the share could rise to about 20 - 25 %
• On the other hand: Thermal energy is mainly used in buildings where in general the highest potential for increased efficiency exists

EU-15 End use energy requirement and oil dependence
• The industry learned from the 1970ies oil crises to reduce its energy consumption
• Only the transport sector grew steadily over the last 40 years
• The share of electricity on final energy supply is rising
• The transport sector is most vulnerable to oil supply disruptions
• The whole industry depends on cheap transport („just in time“ is cheaper than large store houses)

EU- oil consumption in Transport and scenario for future reductions
Assumption:
• Each year ten percent of cars are replaced
• The average fuel consumption of new cars reduces by x percent with respect to the preceeding year
• In Germany the average fuel consumption of all passenger cars grew from 8.1 l/100km in 1960 to ~10 l/100km in 1975; it was almost constant until 1985 and reduced to 9.4 l/100 km in 1990 and to ~8.5 l/100 km in 2000. However most of this was offset by higher traveling volumes.

L-B-Systemtechnik
Comments on the available area for cultivation for the growing of energy plants:
• The upper value (26.4 Mio ha) assumes an increased intensification of agricultural production (FfE 1998).
• A further intensification of agricultural production is not sustainable. Therefore the EU aims at extensification.
• Oil plants: The share of rape seed may not exceeed 25% within the rotation cycle of a given crop. With biological agriculture method this limit is lower.
• An assignment of 26.4 Mio ha to the growing of energy plants would represent 30% of the arable land in the EU
• The area not cultivated (laid off) at present has a size of about 7.2 Mio ha (FfE 1998).

Summary
• The growth of renewables in Europe was different in all countries due to different political support
•Simple trend extrapolation exhibits that at present growth rates about 20 percent of electricity will be renewable in 2010. This share would rise to about 50 percent in 2020
• Even in countries supporting renewables they are still close to „being marginally economic“. As soon as market economics change (e.g. by passing oil peak production) the growth rates could enhance
• The potential is sufficient to ensure a 100 percent renewable energy supply
• The transport sector will be hit strongest by oil scarcity. Introduction of new fuels is most urgent but also most difficult here
• The future will show which growth rates will be realised and which energy mix will be achieved
• Detailed strategies exist how to substitute fossil and nuclear fuels completely by 2050 [e.g. EU financed LTI-Study 1998]
