Global PV Market - Trends 2012 (Sources: IEA PVPS, EPIA, BSW) EU 1 st PV 2 nd Wind TOP 3 PV Germany China Italy Annual growth Stabilised @ 29 GW Global Capacity 100 GW Highest growth Asia +66% Annual installations in MW ROW: Rest of the World, MEA: Middle East and Africa, APAC: Asia Pacific
36000 34000 32000 30000 28000 26000 24000 22000 20000 18000 16000 14000 12000 10000 8000 6000 4000 2000 0 Country ranking by cumulative capacity (Source: IEA PVPS ) Installed PV total capacity 31-12-2012 (MWp) Rank 13 (with IEA 1.205 GW) 13 countries > 1 GW
Massive PV system price reduction (Source: BSW, PV-Exchange 2012, own calculations) Cost reduction to 1/3 in last 6 years (340 INR to 119 INR / Wp) LCOE decrease 16 INR to 7 INR / kwh (LCOE over 20 yrs @ CUF 15%) Still huge differences in country specific prices (especially residential) German System prices for <= 10 kw based on PV- Exchange Index EPIA scenario for residential Segment in the EU at 1.30 Eur/Wp (88 INR) in 2022 (119 INR)
Global PV Trends 2012 Summary & Conclusions 100 GWp capacity exceeded worldwide First drop in EU PV Growth within last 10 yrs / ever System costs reduced to 1/3 within last 6 yrs 13 countries entered the GW capacity class (9 further are close) PV will play a key role in the global electricity mix

Why is Germany pushing the pedal? The energy transition 80% RE 2050 & nuclear phase out until 2022 in order to: Fight climate change Reduce energy imports Stimulate innovation & green economy Strengthen energy security & local economy More: www.energytransition.de
German PV Market 2012 (Source: BSW-Solar) By 31.12.2012: Total installed capacity: 32,400 MWp Number of grid connected PV systems: 1,280,000 PV Target = maximum subsidised capacity = 52 GW by 2020 anual installed capacity 10

Germany PV Market - Conclusions 1. Distributed PV is a success model Potential alone for dark Germany: 203 GW (following calculations of Prof. Drg. Ing. Volker Quaschning HTW Berlin) 2. Grid Integration is possible without problems Proven with 32 GWp in more than 1.2 Mio Systems on the grid 3. Solar PV is economical feasible & competitive today Storage is the next big issue coming up

Net Metering vs. Interconnection (Source: Freeing the grid 2011 / IREC) Interconnection: The technical rules and procedures allowing customers to plug in to the grid. Net Metering: The billing arrangement by which customers realize savings from their systems where 1 kwh generated by the customer has the exact same value as 1 kwh consumed by the customer
Classical Net Metering (NME) - model As implemented e.g. in the USA: The grid feed-in energy will be set off with grid supplied energy. Produced electricity. consumed: difference supplied by grid billing of supply Produced electricity. consumed: excess feed to grid offset with bill / kwh banking Different regulations from state to state for: Time of day tariffs, monthly roll over of credits, limitation of excess, power limits, etc.
Net Metering Basic economics Basic assumptions for small model calculation: PV costs per kwh = 7 INR LCOE 20 yrs Levelized Costs of Electricity very simplified: LCOE = Total life cycle costs Total Lifetime Energy Production 7 INR / kwh over 20 yrs for operation & total payback considering investment costs of 100 INR / Wp and average Indian CuF Grid Costs per kwh = 6.50 / kwh As per my electricity bill yesterday (New Delhi, BSES not including all charges) Annual, linear Inflation of 8%
