  1. Do we need to rethink our energy system(s) to meet 2030 goals? Justin Wilkes, Policy DirectorEuropean Wind Energy Association (EWEA) 25 April 2013

  3. Tackling the flexibility challenge • Variability is an inherent • characteristic of every • power system • Flexible generation is largely • provided by gas, hydro and • to a lesser extent biomass Large scale DSM and new energy storage remain unavailable in the short term • An economically viable • power system with large • amounts of RES will require • changes in all 3 areas Source: IEA 2011, Harnessing Variable Renewables

  4. Stable and predictable market and legislative framework • 2030 renewable and GHG targets • Long-term infrastructure plans • EU-wide power market(s) free of distortions on all timescales • Non-energy markets (grid support services markets) • RDI concentrating scarce resources on key technologies
