Concept NoteInnovative business models for scale-up application of photovoltaic technology in APEC by Zhejiang Provincial Energy Bureau May 21,2014 Kunming
Basic Information • Proposing economy: • China • Co-sponsoring economies: • Thailand, Mexico, the United States, Vietnam • Budget: • USD100,000, • Project Oversee: • Zhejiang Provincial Energy Bureau
Relevance • PV is one of most promising RE technology • The PV markets in the world has experienced the fastest growth • Till 2013 • Total 136 GW • newly-added 36.9 GW • Significant additions from APEC economies Source :IEA
Relevance • Reductions of PV prices • Particularly from 2008 • More than 50% reduction since 2006
Relevance • Change of support policies in recent year • Decrease in financial support in PV • Recently adopted FIT in Asia, ,e.g. China and Japan • Stopped or reduced FIT mainly in Europe • Problems exiting for PV projects • Financing • Electricity interconnection • Coordination of producer, consumer and the grid etc. • lack of knowledge for consumers • System and operation reliability, etc.
Relevance • Innovation emerging • idea of “prosumers” (i.e. PV producers could be also consumers) , • self-consumption policies • new financing mechanisms for solar • community solar investments • PV application is changing from policy-driven to market-oriented. • The business models will play increasing role on PV market
Relevance • Innovation emerging • idea of “prosumers” (i.e. PV producers could be also consumers) • self-consumption policies • new financing mechanisms for solar • community solar investments • PV application is changing from policy-driven to market-oriented. • The business models will play increasing role on PV market
Relevance • According to “Funding Criteria for All APEC-Funded Projects in 2014” • Rank 1: • Investment, • Promoting cooperation in Environmental Goods and Services including trade and investment • Ease of doing business • Rank 2: • Promotion of Renewable Energy,…..Low Carbon technology, • Promoting Green Growth, • Promoting innovation policy and research cooperation
Alignment • “Resilient Asia-Pacific, Engine of Global Growth” set for the 21st APEC Economic Leaders’ meeting on 8 October 2013 in Bali of Indonesia • invigorate work to develop clean and renewable energy through public-private partnership,…… • the Joint Ministerial Statement of the 25th APEC Ministers Meeting (Bali, Indonesia, 5 October 2013) • Promoting Clean, Renewable, and Sustainable Use of Energy • The objective of the Energy Working Group (EWG)
Objectives To enhance understanding the innovative business models for solar PV systems, in terms of prerequisites, configurations, operating scheme and effectiveness etc.; To provide suggest on development of innovative business for APEC economies; To share experiences and lessons of business practices which has been successful in PV market, and disseminate project outcomes and findings
Methodology • Workplan • investigation and review • Development of innovative business model • Case study on distributed PV business model • Finalization and dissemination • Beneficiaries: • stakeholders in PV market, • developers, investors, manufacturers, electricity consumers, building owners and the grid companies etc.
Methodology • Evaluation: • deliverables including a midterm report, a case study report and a final report , • an international workshop with about 50 participants from participating economies and other ones. • project results published and uploaded via websites available • Linkages: • review the practice experiences and lessons in and beyond APEC, • build on previous APEC project related to the renewable energy business models,
