Next Generation Wind and Solar Power from Cost to Value FULL REPORT Next Generation Wind and Solar Power from Cost to Value INTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCY FULL REPORT Next Generation Wind and Solar Power From cost to value FULL REPORT Next Generation Wind and Solar Power From cost to value INTERNATIONAL ENERGY AGENCY The International Energy Agency (IEA), an autonomous agency, was established in November 1974. Its primary mandate was – and is – two-fold: to promote energy security amongst its member countries through collective response to physical disruptions in oil supply, and provide authoritative research and analysis on ways to ensure reliable, affordable and clean energy for its 29 member countries and beyond. The IEA carries out a comprehensive programme of energy co-operation among its member countries, each of which is obliged to hold oil stocks equivalent to 90 days of its net imports. The Agency’s aims include the following objectives: Secure member countries’ access to reliable and ample supplies of all forms of energy; in particular, through maintaining effective emergency response capabilities in case of oil supply disruptions. Promote sustainable energy policies that spur economic growth and environmental protection in a global context – particularly in terms of reducing greenhouse-gas emissions that contribute to climate change. Improve transparency of international markets through collection and analysis of energy data. Support global collaboration on energy technology to secure future energy supplies and mitigate their environmental impact, including through improved energy efficiency and development and deployment of low-carbon technologies. Find solutions to global energy challenges through engagement and dialogue with non-member countries, industry, international organisations and other stakeholders.

  • Saving Power
    Saving Power 70 by 30 Implementation Plan August 2020 Delivering the Climate Action Plan EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Executive Summary Ireland is a world leader. Though our challenges and failures in the fight against climate change are widely known, there is less of a focus on our achievements. EirGrid and SONI, as the operators of Ireland’s electricity transmission system, have led the way in integrating large volumes of renewable electricity to provide clean power to homes and businesses across the country. They have done this by working together to identify and deploy innovative systems and technologies to support our electricity grid. Their success has made ours possible. In 2019 the Irish wind energy industry provided almost a third of Ireland’s electricity and over the first five months of 2020 this rose to just over 40%. We are number one in Europe for the level of electricity demand met by onshore wind. Wind energy cuts our CO2 emissions by more than three million tonnes a year and annually saves our economy hundreds of millions of euro in fossil fuel imports, keeping jobs and investment at home. But the increased deployment of onshore wind and the planned development of new solar farms and offshore wind farms will create greater challenges in integrating renewable electricity. Already wind farms are being dispatched down – instructed to reduce the amount of power they generate – because the system is unable to cope with the large volumes of clean power available. In 2019 alone more than 710,000 MWh of renewable electricity, enough to power the city of Galway for a year, was lost.

  • Wind Power in Ireland and USA Workshop Report
    NEPP Workshop Workshop report September 2011 Wind power in Ireland and USA The “Joint Workshop NEPP and IEA (Wind Task 25)” was held at KTH, Stockholm on 4 April 2011. The main speakers were three experts from the IEA work group on design and operaƟ on of power systems with large amounts of wind power. The audience was representaƟ ves from the NEPP project and the Swedish industry. The Irish power system is rather small, and with weak interconnecƟ ons to Great Britain. Most of the balancing of wind power in the Irish system must be done in thermal generators. Nevertheless, the Irish system already has a large share of wind power, and the discussion is not Figures for end 2008 whether the system can manage situaƟ ons where wind Source: Global wind energy outlook 2008, EirGrid, UK National Grid, NORDEL, Euroelectric power account for up to 50% of the instantaneous power, but what technical adaptaƟ ons are necessary to manage shares between 50-80%. College Dublin, the Irish power system probably has the largest share of wind power in the world. As in the Nordic countries, the power systems in USA only have a small share of wind power so far (a few per cent of Already today, the Irish power system from time to time has the annual electrical energy supply). In order to increase to manage high wind power penetration. In 5 April 2010, the share of wind power, it is considered vital not only wind power accounted for in average 33% of the system to invesƟ gate how to provide the technical fl exibility to total demand, with a peak at 42% early in the morning.

    CASE STUDIES Engineering Economics AAGE U. MICHELSEN ISBN 978-87-89359-32-8 Aage U. Michelsen : Engineering Economics 27th edition 2016 Publisher: Bodano Publishing & Communication ApS Copyright © Bodano 2016 Bodano Publishing & Communication ApS Hovedgaden 47 DK 2970 Hørsholm Phone +45 38 74 78 76 www.bodanopub.dk E-mail: [email protected] 2 Foreword This collection of case studies is designed to be used as educational material in the teaching of business economics to engineering students. Many engineering students are primarily interested in the technical disciplines and perceive “economics” as uninteresting and more or less irrelevant to the solution of technical problems. A main objective of this collection of case studies is to illustrate that in business, the economic dimension is highly relevant in the resolution of the vast majority of technical problems. By presenting the economic problems in a tech- nical context, it is hoped that a greater number of engineering students will become interested in economic studies and see the relevance of this. An emphasis has been placed on making the cases realistic, in that they reflect con- crete problems faced by the companies. At the same time, it has been necessary to simplify some of the problems to make them suitable for educational use. In addition, some of the numerical values have been changed for reasons of confidentiality. Most numerical values, however, have the proper order of magnitude. Proposed solutions have been prepared for the numerical problems in the cases, designed to complement textbook theories and models. Some cases also contain discussion portions, which include keywords or keyword-like phrases.

  • What Went Wrong with Ontario's Energy
    What went wrong with Ontario’s energy policy? Comparing spin & reality Compiled for CENTRAL BRUCE-GREY WIND CONCERNS ONTARIO By Keith Stelling, MA, (McMaster) MNIMH, Dip. Phyt., MCPP (England) 10 April, 2010 http://windconcernsontario.wordpress.com/ [email protected] Table of Contents Executive Summary 3 Introduction 4 Background 4 About this report 9 I. Feasibility: Where are the CO2 emission savings? 9 II. Cost/benefit accounting: How much? Who pays? Who knows? 17 III. Job creation: 50,000 new “green” jobs? But how many job losses? 39 Conclusion 56 References 55 2 Executive Summary By referring to the economic experience of those European countries that have vigorously promoted wind energy over the last two decades, this report demonstrates that the decisions of the Ontario government did not take into consideration the reality of introducing large scale industrial wind energy onto the grid. In fact, the government’s enthusiasm to embrace what it claimed to be cheap, “clean”, environmentally benign electricity at the same time as diminishing CO2 emissions appears to have ignored all the realistic information that was available, leaving an energy policy based on little more than a leap of faith. Wind energy is neither cheap nor environmentally benign, as this report will demonstrate. This compilation of recently published information demonstrates that Ontario’s energy policy is seriously flawed. It is based upon assumptions that never have and never will be substantiated in practice. Using European reports, it shows that industrial wind turbine and solar panel complexes do not lower CO2 emissions when added in any quantity to the grid.
