Tiiu Müürsepp Director of Tartu Consumer Advice and Information Centre, Riga, 20.08.2010 Environmental influence of energy industry is biggest in the industry sector Europe Union climate policy: Emitted greenhouse gases diminish competitivity Europe Union energy police: focus on liberalisation of energy markets and use of energy sources with slender environmental impact 94% of electricity is produced from oil-shale Eesti Energia have to purchace quota ca 1 mln ton for 2010, price of quota ca 15 €/t In the situation when emitted CO2 amounts are not covered with corresponding number of quota have the company pay forfeit 100 €/t in years 2008-2012 Electricity and heat for our homes 2009/2010 Eesti Energia overview Source: www.energia.ee So is our electricity system mainly “0ne direction”, for transportation of electricity from North-East Estonia to the other parts of Estonia This eliminates electricity production working in principles of distributed generation, less till 2020 Estonian Electricity Market Act defines renowable energy sources as ◦ water, ◦ wind, ◦ sun, ◦ waves, ◦ tides ◦ geothermal energy, ◦ gas from landfils, ◦ gas from waste water treatment, ◦ biogas and biomass Eesti Energia produces currently electricity from wind, water and biomass Source: www.energia.ee /en /power/renewable Eesti Energia plans to produce electricity from multiple energy sources in oder to reduce the emission on greenhouse gases Source: www.energia.ee/en/power/renewable In the production of wind energy the remarkable sprung was in 2005, afterwards is the production grown but slowlier The production of hydro plants was stabiler and slowlier Although the importance of renewable electricity is relative small, it is grown from year to year and constituted 1,5% in 2008, 5,1% in 2010 In 2009, an application round of the measure "Extended use of renewable energy sources for the generation of energy" financed from the Europe Regional Development Fund ERDF was held. In the framework of that round, 150 million kroons worth of grants were awarded for the reconstruction of boiler houses and district heating networks and the construction of combined generation plants The application round was open to local governments, non-profit associations, businesses and foundations. Applications accepts Environmental Investment Centre Directive 2001/77/EC on the promotion of electricity produced from renewable energy source in the internal electricity market ---goal for Estonia 5,1% in 2010 Directive 2003/30/EC on the promotion of the use of biofuels or other renewable fuels for transport Goals for member states, biofuel 5,75% from sold transport fuels Directive 2009/28/EC 23.04.2009 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources Goal for Estonia 25% renewable energy in 2020 International research company GfK has provided in last two years research about environmental issues 67% Estonians in 2009 and 71% in 2010 aren’t ready to pay more for renewable energy, said PRB Youth and especially students are the most agreed group to pay more for renewable energy Consumers are affraid that opening of electricity market will not offer energy with lower price but in opposite, as the Skandinavian experience showed. High price is a serious problem for Scandinavian consumer. 1.03.2010 price rised 3% - added was excise and network payment rised 1,5% 1.06.2010 - added was renewable energy payment 12,64senti/kWh = 0,81 euro/kWh Renewable energy payment is payment appointed from state for financing energy produce from renewable energy sources and for combined energy production Wind energy in Estonia. There was 142 MW wind energy installed in Estonia in the end of 2009 Source for this slide and next 6 slides www.tuuleenergia.ee/about/statistika Last year (2009) were installed: 39MW Aulepa Wind Farm (Eesti Energia AS), 9MW Vanaküla Wind Farm and 16MW Tooma Wind Farm (Nelja Energia OÜ) in total the wind energy capacity in Estonia increased by 64MW in 2009 Wind energy in Estonia There was 142 MW wind energy installed in Estonia in the end of 2009. The wind energy capacity in Estonia increased by 64MW in 2009 Windparks in developing 379,38 MW wind energy will be developed in 2010-2013, 92,9 MW in 2010 126,98 MW in 2011 98,5 MW in 2012 61 MW in 2013 Wind energy projects 2010-2013 Wind parks developers and planned wind energy in MW Offshore windparks Plans 2014 .....
