  1. Promoting Wind Energy in Romania’s National Renewable Energy Action Plan Alexandru Sandulescu Director General Energy, Oil and Gas Department Ministry of Economy, Commerce and Business Environment

  2. Targets – share of renewables Directive 2001/77/EC (amended by 2006/108/EC): • 33 % of gross electricity consumption in 2010 Romanian energy strategy 2007 – 2020: • 33 % of gross electricity consumption in 2010 • 35 % of gross electricity consumption in 2015 • 38 % of gross electricity consumption in 2020 Directive 2009/28/EC • 24 % of gross energy consumption in 2020 (+6.2 % from 2005)

  3. National potential of renewables The national renewable energy sources potential NOTE : these are theoretical potentials, real usable potentials are much lower due to technological, economical and environmental limitations or restrictions.

  4. National potential of renewables Distribution of the renewable energy sources potential I. Donau Delta (solar);II. Dobrogea (solar and wind);III. Moldova (microhydro, wind and biomass);IV. Carpaţi Moutain (IV1 – Carpaţii de Est; IV2 – Carpaţii de Sud; IV3 – Carpaţii de Vest ( biomass, microhydro);V. Transilvania (microhydro);VI. Câmpia de Vest (geothermal);VII. Subcarpaţii(VII1 – Subcarpaţii Getici; VII2 – Subcarpaţii de Curbură; VII3 – Subcarpaţii Moldovei: biomass, microhydro);VIII. Câmpia de Sud (biomass, geothermal and solar).

  5. National use of renewables Opertional: • hydro – 6440 MW • wind – 14.9 MW • biomass/biogas – 8.1 MW • solar – 0.0088 MW Under construction: • hydro - 131 MW • biomass/biogas – 27 MW • wind – 1000 MW with ANRE authorizations - 2624 MW with grid connection contracts (112 wind farms) - 5000 MW with grid connection permits (30 May 2010)

  6. National Renewable Energy Action Plan Final document published on the website www.minind.ro More than 200 pages Large collaboration between ministries Consultants: ICEMENERG (coordinator), ISPE, ICPE Public consultation in June 2010

  7. National Renewable Energy Action Plan • Deadline: 30 June 2010 • Romanian NREAP – ready, 208 pages • Already submitted to EU (5.07.2010): • Denmark • Holland • Great Britain • Sweden • Finland

  8. National Renewable Energy Action Plan Where we are - electricity generation 2009

  9. National Renewable Energy Action Plan Where we are - electricity generation perspectives Wind investments under development

  10. National Renewable Energy Action Plan Development forecasts

  11. National Renewable Energy Action Plan Development forecasts

  12. National Renewable Energy Action Plan Development forecasts

  13. National Renewable Energy Action Plan Development forecasts To be produced from renewable energy sources in 2020: 30278 ktep x 24% = 7267 ktep

  14. National Renewable Energy Action Plan Indicative trajectory

  15. National Renewable Energy Action Plan Indicative trajectory

  16. Legislation Electricity law (13 / 2007) Renewables promotion law (220 / 2008, revised in 2010) National energy strategy for 2007 – 2020 (GD 1069 / 2007) Renewable energy promotion strategy (GD 1535 / 2003) Promotion mechanism by green certificates (GD 443 / 2004….) Secondary legislation issued by Energy Regulatory Authority (ANRE) Operational procedures issued by Opcom (market operator) and Transelectrica (TSO)

  17. Incentives for investments • Structural funds 2008 call: • 50 projects received • 14 projects selected • structural funds allocated: approx. 70 mil. Euro • 2010 call: • opened between January 2010 and April 2010; • structural funds: approx. 100 mil. Euro • revised Applicant Guide • 419 proposals received, representing 20 x the available fund • possible increasing of the funds with another 80 mil. Euro.

  18. Promotion of renewable energy sources - Green certificates market Producers Supplier Green certificate market Competition Producer on renewables Green certificates Aqusition quota Electricity Label Electricity market Producer using fossil fuels Electricity Coal Producer with nuclear units Electricity Nuclear Competition Green certificate market

  19. Green certificate market Promotion of renewable energy sources - Green certificates market Mandatory quotas (year / %): • Minimum and maximum price levels: • minimum value 27 Euro / MWh • maximum value 55 Euro / MWh

  20. Green certificate market Promotion of renewable energy sources - Green certificates market • Number of certificates per MWh: • hydro under 10 MW: 3 certificates for new units / 2 certificates for refurbished units / 0.5 certificates for other units; • wind: 2 certificates till 2017, one starting with 2018; • biomass / biogas: 3 certificates + 1 for efficient cogeneration; • solar: 6 certificates. Green certificates are issued for: • 15 years for new units; • 7 years for second hand units used in isolated systems; • 10 years for refurbished hydro units; • 3 years for old, un-refurbished hydro units;

  21. Green certificate market Promotion of renewable energy sources - Green certificates market Investments must be done before 2016 ! Penalties for non compliance of suppliers: 110 Euro per non acquired certificate Revenues from penalties to be used by Environment Fund ANRE must calculate the GC Acquisition quotas ANRE can adjust quotas if it is a high imbalance on the green certificate market

  22. Green certificate market Organized by Energy Market Operator - OPCOM

  23. Issues addressed in NREAP • Enhancements of the day ahead market: • Adjustment market • Intra-day markets • Testing phase, operational in 2010 Financial products market (futures, options) to be organized by Opcom - energy market operator

  24. Issues addressed in NREAP • Network enforcement • Network Development Plan 2008 – 2012 (and roughly for 2017) • 1700 MW în 400kV Tariverde power station; • 600 MW în Vânt power station; • 354 MW în Moldova: Fălciu Berezeni, Roşieşti, Vetrişoaia, Smârdan-Gutinas; • 105 MW în Tulcea County: Baia and Corugea-Cişmeaua Nouă; • 90 MW în Medgidia Sud area: Peştera; • 120 MW în Medgidia Nord area: Târguşor and Siliştea. • Total: 3000 MW

  25. Issues addressed in NREAP • Power system flexibility • Romania has an inflexible power system: • 18 % of generation on nuclear (to be increased to 35%) • 40% of generation on coal; • 15% of generation is the river hydro; • To increase the flexibility: • Pump storage power plants – Tarnita-Lapusesti (1000 MW) • New power plants on gas (Petrom 800 MW, Iernut, Fantanele) • New interconnections with neighboring countries
