- France, renewable energy in el. mix should climb to 40 percent by 2030 from 15 percent in 2015
- USA, Qualifying projects eligible for tax credits (PTC)
EEG 2017 - ONSHORE
Tenders beginning in 2017
- 2,800 MW will be allocated per year during 2017-19
Transitional period
- Projects with planning permission before Jan 1, 2017 and commissioned before Jan 1, 2019 may choose between feedin-tariff regime and tender
Limited grid capacity regions
- Due to underinvestment in the grid, new wind build will be limited in these areas to 58% of the amount installed during the 2013-15 time period
EEG 2017 - OFFSHORE
Germany targets 15,000 MW offshore
- By 2030, up from 3,295 MW in 2015
Transitional period
- Offshore wind farms, which are commissioned before the end of 2020, fall under previous fixed feed-in-tariff regime
Two tenders totaling 3,100 MW
- In March 2017 and 2018, tenders with 1,550 MW each will be held for projects to be completed during 2021-25
- Atlantis I is being prepared for the tenders
Central Model
- After the two tender rounds, a government body (BSH) will takeover the development of future offshore projects. These areas will then be auctioned off for the period after 2025
- If there are no changes to the legislation, the projects Atlantis II and III, Jules Verne, Nemo and Nautilus may be affected
Development Opportunities
- Power-to-Gas: New solutions for offshore projects are being explored
- International markets: Leverage our offshore experience in foreign markets
ENERGY TRENDS
Wind power is competitive
- In comparison to coal, gas and nuclear
Improving wind technology
- Leads to higher output at lower costs
- Wind LCOE (Levelized Cost of Energy) has fallen by 50 percent since 2009 – Bloomberg New Energy Finance
