  3. Acceleration Strategies

  4. IEA Energy Technology Collaboration (ETC) • The IEA provides a framework under which experts and organisations can come together to work on common problems • Known as ‘Implementing Agreements’, IAs • Has proven highly successful

  5. Scope of the Programme • 40 current agreements- over 100 tasks - nearly 500 participating institutions • Average 12 countries per Agreement • US$ 120-150 m spent each year under the collaborative programme • Non-IEA Member countries can and do participate

  6. Areas of Collaboration • Fossil Fuels • Renewables • End-Use Technologies • Fusion Power • System Analysis • Information Centres

  7. Characteristics of Collaboration • Each Implementing Agreement has its own Executive Committee, nominated by the participants • Individual or groups of IA have a “Desk Officer” at the IEA Secretariat to co-ordinate the IA work with the IEA Committees and the IEA Programme of Work

  8. Benefits of InternationalCo-operation • Enhances market confidence and vision of market scale for financial sector. • Increases efficiency and effectiveness of learning investments. • Increases shared learning on policy frameworks, capacity building, etc. • Improves technical and business infrastructure.

  9. IEA RE Implementing Agreements Annual shared IA investments: > $50 mill.

  10. IEA RE IA Example Outputs • Bioenergy: District heating biofuels; short rotation forestry • Geothermal: Market development • Hydropower: Industry-based direction and financing • PVPS: Strong new networks; Rokko Island • SHC: New commercial procurement • SolarPACES: Cost reductions w/industry; START missions • Wind: Turbine testing & evaluation practices - harmonised certification

  11. Process: 1. Market analysis 2. Pooling of initial buyers’ group 3. Innovative specifications 4. Competitive bidding 5. Replication Benefits: 1. Demand-driven 2. Economic aggregation 3. Better technology performance 4. Market-based incentives 5. Efficient financing Market-Pull Instrument: Co-operative Technology Procurement

  12. Relevant Markets for Renewables

  13. (Draft) Lead Markets for Geothermal Power Generation

  14.

  15. March 2001 Geothermal Coalition Dialogue 1 Objectives • Defining a global market initiative for geothermal heat and power plants; niche market between today and take-off: distributed generation Identified Issues for Lead Markets • Challenges for for market development are largely non-technical • Upstream risk coverage (exploration risk) • Missing market players (developers have vanished)

  16. March 2001 Geothermal Coalition Dialogue 2 Participants • Global Environment Facility; UNEP • World Bank Group with International Finance Corporation • Geothermal Implementing Agreement (country representatives) • Private Sector

  17. Joint areas of strategicco-operation 1. Global market inventory 2. Leading market dialogs 3. Regular participation of Non-Member countries in win-win market integration efforts 4. Best practice synthesis

  18. Next Steps • GIA: New draft Task on market development • NMC incremental activities might be eligible for GEF support • Project feasibility analysis and contingent financing on the basis of Annex results • WB/IFC finance for public/private sector projects

  19. Global Market RE Development:2001 Overview • Extended policy analysis • RE green certificates • RE project criteria REWP/REU: • Overall co-ordination • Network RE cluster
