1 Promoting environmental related innovation in global markets Workshop on Environmental Innovation and Global Markets Alvaro Ponce - Isofotón Berlin - September 21, 2007

2 Isofoton Isofotón is a world leader in the development of Solar Energy technology for sustainable energy solutions, with more than 25 years of experience, and it is globally committed to Society and the Environment. The company is comprised of 100% Spanish capital and know-how, and focuses its manufacturing activity on both solar technologies: Photovoltaic and Thermal, from its headquarters in Spain. It has a commercial presence in more than 60 countries, and has subsidiaries in China, Ecuador, U.S.A., Italy, Morocco, the Dominican Republic, Bolivia and a Project Office in Senegal.

4 Photovoltiac Sector Evolution Discovery of PV effect (1839) LAB TECHNOLOGY PRE-INDUSTRIAL OIL CRISIS (1970s) SMALL INDUSTRY (isolated systems, rural electrification) R&D POLITICAL SUPPORT (developed countries, grid connection) STRONG INDUSTRY GROWTH MARKET

5 Photovoltiac Sector Evolution The oil crisis of the 1970 s put in evidence a series of defects of the current energy model which affected directly developed countries: Energy dependency. Energy resources concentration (Fossil Fuels). Geo-political and strategic risks. Energy supply insecurity. High volatility of oil prices. Environmental issues This situation, including new risks and threats, is recurring again at the end of the century.

6 Photovoltiac Sector Evolution Although the discovery of PV is in the c. XIX, and even Albert Einstein was given the Nobel Prize for his investigations in this matter, the beginnings of the modern technological era of PV starts during the 1950 s, when researchers of the Bell Telephone Laboratories developed silicium solar cells. At the end of the decade, this cells were used for space applications successfully, with the launch of the first satellites with solar energy (1958). Although the efforts done to commercialized this technology (1977 worldwide production was 500 kwp), it was not until the 80 s when the first small markets started to appeared. These markets generated a small industry specialized in the electrification of rural areas with isolated systems. Isofoton s birth occurs at the same moment (1981). Since then, and thanks for the development of the grid connected market in the 90 s, the technological development of PV has been unstoppable. This growth has created an industry which nowadays is capable of offering a wide range of technologies, while investing large amount of resources in R&D with the aim of reducing cost and increasing efficiency.

11 Current situation of the Photovoltaic solar energy and grid connection market Germany s case Revision of the Feed in Tariff MW ,000 roof solar programme Feed in Tariff Law Source: Eurobserver.

12 Current situation of the Photovoltaic solar energy and grid connection market Germany s case As a result of the feed in tariff system, the German market has experience en explosive growth, which had make it become the biggest market in the world, even above Japan. Again, although this time the market segment is different (grid connection), Isofoton sees itself obligated by the market to take the following steps: Go to markets beyond its border Satisfy a market with much higher degree of demand. In this period, approximately 70% of Iosofon s production is destine to the German market, which became the locomotive of the sector for those years. At the same time, the success of the system generated a domino effect, that made other countries established a similar system. Spain, Italy, Greece and France, are some of the countries that have imitated Germany s initiative.

13 Current situation of the Photovoltaic solar energy and grid connection market Spain case MW Total Annual Increase Source: CNE.

14 Spain s Legal Regulation Royal Decree 661/2007 of May 26th. It revises the legal and economic Regime set by RD 436/2004 Renewable energy Plan ( ) Establishes an objective of 373 MWp installed by 2010 Royal Decree 436/2004 of March 12th. Establishes the methodology for updating and systematization of the legal and economic Regime for the activities of electric energy generation by special regime. Royal Decree 1663/2000 of September 29th. About Grid Connection of photovoltaic installations of low voltage. Royal Decree 1955/2000 of December 1st. Regulates the activities of transport, distribution, commercialization, supply and authorization of the procedures for installation of electric energy. Regional Legislation, relates, for example, to the specific procedures to obtain the Prior Inscription to Special Regime (REPE) or the Work License. Law 54/97 of the Electric Sector

15 Spain s Legal Regulation New Royal Decree 661/2007 Larger solar power installations will practically double their returns, receiving a guaranteed return on investment of 7%, while those under 100 kwp ones will stay the same. Retribution will be as follow: P 100 kw: for the first 25 years 44,0381 then 35, kw<p 10 MW: for the first 25 years 41,75 then 33,4 10<P 50 MW: for the first 25 years 22,9764 then 18,3811 The revision of the feed in tariff will be done every four years. Revisions will not be retroactive.

25 Conclusions What is needed to properly promote environmental related innovation in global markets is a stable legal framework; that the rules of the game be clear and that they be maintained over along period of time. Our experience in Spain s PV market give us the following conclusions, which could be translated into a global experience: The Spanish legal framework is positive for its market, and it is sufficient to reach the objective of 400 MW installed by The financial resources are adequate, due to the fact that most of the financial burden will be embraced by the tariff. According to the new Renewable Energy Plan the total payment through the tariff will by of approximately 500 millions euros between 2005 and However, reality is different, and the results until today have not been as expected. There are still barriers which constrain the Spanish market growth...

26 Conclusions There are still complex administrative procedures when applying for a grid connection, which mean long waiting time for permits, licenses, subsidies, etc... These problems are disproportional for installation of small systems, which should have simpler, less time consuming and cheaper procedures. Another obstacle for photovoltaics, is the difference on criteria between Autonomic Communities regarding subsidies and installation norms. It is necessary to unify criteria for the whole country. The lack of an unify national administrative procedure, like Germany. Utilities do not have clear policies towards PV implantation. And although the future for photovoltaics in Spain looks bright, we have a long way to reach Germany. For Isofoton, and all the Spanish PV industry, this has meant a continuous process of innovation, in order to reduce cost, increase product efficiency, produce new technology, and become one of the most competitive industries in the world.
