Continuous research and innovation Solar Impulse: The project eventually hopes to succeed in the first circling of the earth with a piloted fixed-wing aircraft using only solar power. A single-seater, capable of taking off under its own power, and intended to remain airborne up to 36 hours. It first flew an entire diurnal solar cycle, including nearly 9 hours of night flying, in a 26-hour flight on 7–8 July 2010. http://www.nasa.gov/centers/dryden/history/pastprojects/Erast/helios.html PlanetSolar: an entirely solar powered boat that was launched on 31 March 2010. The plan is to set a round-the-world record, promoting the use of sustainable energy. Two records: fastest crossing of the Atlantic Ocean by solar boat and longest distance ever covered by a solar electric vehicle. Ph. Costerg, June 2012

Lebanon PV market potential PV industrial (ground/rooftop) – LCOE@6% • Large industrials are using diesel generators as back up systems • As high diesel price at ~0.9$/l, PV can be used to save diesel fuel cost • PV (ground or rooftop) already competitive for large industrials Large industrials PV small industrials/commercial rooftop – LCOE@6% • Small industrials/commercials are buying back-up electricity from private generators at very high cost (6 times EDL commercial tariff) • PV already competitive on small industrials/commercial rooftops Small industrials/ commercials PV residential rooftop – LCOE@6% • Residential are buying back-up electricity from private generators at very high cost (3 times EDL residential tariff) • PV competitive on residential rooftop starting 2013-2014 Residential
A solar PV roadmap : sustainable, secure and affordable • Key questions : • What is the most appropriate policy framework to develop solar PV? • How should investment incentives be functioning? • How to modernize energy infrastructure in order to integrate solar (and wind) power? • Who pays for the cost of infrastructure? • Benefits of Solar PV • Creating local employment in installation, operation and maintenance • Decreasing dependence on fossil fuels • Developing new and innovative technologies • Providing revenue 17
Preconditions for the development of Solar PV in Lebanon • A defined energy vision and investment planning for Solar energy • Financial support guaranteed over a predefined period of time, without retroactivity • Removal of barriers through streamlined administrative procedures and efficient grid connection processes • Guaranteed grid access and transmission • Information and awareness of the population/investors about the benefits related to PV • Education and certification of installers • Grid infrastructure development 18
Segment-specific approaches • In the residential, commercial and industrial segments • Self-consumption: allow final consumers to use the solar electricity generated by their PV systems to offset their consumption before exporting the excess power to the grid • Net metering: allow the compensation to be calculated on a longer period of time (in general one year), in order to reduce the overall cost of support schemes • In the utility-scale segment • Call for tender mechanisms: these calls should be multi-annual in nature, guarantee sufficient volume and transparent, rapid and simple bidding process to ensure they enable market growth • Obligation on utilities for increasing their share of renewables / PV in their resource portfolios, combined with power purchase agreements that ensure fixed prices 19
