  1. Future Vision for PVEmiliano Perezagua – (ISOFOTON S.A.)PV TRAC Chairman“Setting RTD priorities for FP 7”Brussels - 4 November 2004

  2. A Vision for Photovoltaic Technology for 2030 and beyond • Foreword • Initial Considerations • Schedule And Objective • Vision for Photovoltaics in 2030 • How to reach the Vision • PV Technology Platform • Strategic plan

  3. Foreword • PV TRAC (the Photovoltaics Technology Research Advisory Council) was launched on 4 December 2003 by: • Loyola de Palacio – European Commission Vice-President in charge of Energy and Transport • Philippe Busquin– European Commissioner for Research. • PV TRAC members represents major PV stakeholders: • Industry • Researchers • Utilities • Government Agencies • Construction sector (left the council at the second meeting)

  4. Foreword • INITIAL REMARKS: The potential for PV is large, but today its penetration in the electricity market is small. • Why is there a gap? • Can we accelerate the “learning” process? • What initiatives should be taken? • What are the costs and benefits for Europe?

  5. Foreword THE MISSION: To contribute to a rapid development of a world-class cost competitive European PV for a sustainable electricity production.

  6. Considerations • To develop: • A Vision Report • A Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) in order to optimize the contribution of research. • A Communication Strategy. • Recommendations for the next steps to reach the objectives.

  7. A Vision for Photovoltaic Technology for 2030 and beyond 1. Current situation • International agenda, European and national policies • PV in the context of Renewable Energies • Status of PV technology, industry and applications 2. Vision for Photovoltaics in 2030 • Technology, industry, economy and energy issues 3. How to reach the Vision • PV Technology Platform • Strategic Plan (incl. SRA) • Main recommendations

  8. Current Situation PV technology : • Wafer-based crystalline silicon: dominant, proven technology, high material costs, energy intensive, but large and concrete potential for improvements; • Thin-films: low materials and energy consumption, lower efficiency, further process development & upscaling will lead to major cost reduction.

  9. Current situation • PV Industry (2003) Production (re. PV-NET) Market (re. EPIA)

  10. Current situation • Systems and Applications • Grid-Connected systems : 80-200 kWh/m2.year, 0.25-0.65 €/kWh • Decentralised generators (roofs, façades) → building integration • Central power plants • Stand-alone systems : • Consumer and industrial applications • Decentralised Rural Electrification : 1.7 billion people without access to electricity services

  11. A Vision for PV in 2030 • 2030 is only an intermediate milestone, robust on-going growth beyond 2030 • PV module efficiency : up to 25 % • Systems lifetime > 40 years • System energy pay-back time < 1 year • PV modules and systems based on abundant and non-toxic materials • Crystalline silicon, thin-films and new concepts all present on the market

  12. A Vision for PV in 2030 • Virtually all new buildings fitted with PV, some of them net electricity producers • PV electricity costs : factor 5 reduction (0.05 to 0.12 €/kWh in 2030)competitive with retail electricity prices within ten years in large parts of Europe • Strong European industry with significant exports, 200 to 400 thousand jobs including installation activities

  13. A Vision for PV in 2030 • PV in the 2030 energy picture: • EU : 200 GWp installed capacity • World : 1,000 GWp ~ 1,000 TWh/year = 4 % of the world electricity consumption ~ today’s electricity consumption of Germany + France • Large-scale dissemination of PV for rural use in Developing Countries : PV electricity provided to > 100 million families • PV robust and safe supplier of energy on grid and in stand-alone mode.

  14. How to reach the Vision • Issues • Increasing RTD efforts • Alignment of strategies and goals • Continuity and long-term action • Addressing the barriers • Improving technology transfer • Emphasising manufacturing issues • Enabling critical mass • Joining forces and competencies • Building sustainable markets • Involving stakeholders and decision makers • Defining adequate policy frameworks

  15. How to reach the Vision • Establishment of a PV Technology Platform • Strong connection between the 3 areas needed to accelerate the process • Strategic plan covering : • Research and technology • Industry and market • Policy and instruments

  16. PV Platform National Programmes Mirror Group Steering Committee PV Secretariat Information, Promotion, Education & Market Deployment Group Science, Technology & Applications Group Policy & Instruments Group Developing Countries Group

  17. PV Platform • KEYWORDS: • Open to all • Flexibility • Communication • Harmonization • DEFINING: • Key areas • Key concepts  Common Vision • Key priorities • VALUE: Process to work for the future

  18. PV Platform • Real willingness to work together: • Science • Industry • Policy • Joining efforts and goals. • Same vision: • Policy activities • Dissemination • Roadmap for Europe (European Dimension) • Coordinate an efficient regulatory framework

  19. The Strategic Plan • The Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) • Coordination of research programmes • Implementation policies and support actions

  20. The Strategic Research AGENDA • Four main directions • Basic research • Applied research and development • Demonstration • Supporting research (socio-economic, etc.) • Areas to be addressed • Current technologies (wafer & thin-film technologies) • New and emerging technologies • Balance-of-systems • Building integration • Systems aspects (storage, grid optimization, buildings, etc.) • Manufacturing issues

  21. Co-ordination of RTD programmes • PV Technology Platform in FP 7 • Joint Technology Initiative (to be explored) • Dedicated budget line for PV collaborative RTD • European Research Area instruments • Co-ordination of PV RTD programmes • EU: PV ERA-NET, Mirror Group • International: USA, Japan and IEA Implementing Agreement on Photovoltaics • Networks of Excellence

  22. Implementation policies and marketcreation • Policy Framework • Incentives / support schemes • Specificity of PV vs other Renewables • Implementation of RES-e directive • Optimisation, Co-ordination and Consensus building • EU financial instruments (Structural and Cohesion Funds) • Access to the grid, building codes, standards

  23. Implementation policies and marketcreation • Developing Countries • Strong partnership between development agencies, NGOs, finance sector • Export and Trade • Barriers to be addressed on global, EU and national levels • Communication

  24. Main recommendations • Implement the Strategic Research Agenda • Strongly co-ordinate European PV research activities • Facilitate coherent implementation of deployment measures and overcome barriers • Foster joint initiatives and communication plan • Support export and trade • Strengthen partnership with developing countries
