BEST: Bioenergy resources (CHP) providing energy system flexibility. Juha Haa...CLIC Innovation Ltd
This document discusses the role of combined heat and power (CHP) plants in providing flexibility to energy systems with increasing renewable production. It notes that renewable energy sources like solar power are becoming cheaper but also more intermittent, creating challenges around reliability. CHP plants could help address this by participating in electricity reserve markets that compensate plants for being available to increase or decrease production on short notice. The document presents a case study that simulated an actual CHP plant's revenues from 2015-2016 and found it would have earned 15-20% higher annual profits by participating in these reserve markets. This suggests CHP plants are well-positioned to play a role in ensuring energy system reliability in the future.
The True Costs of Solar PV: IRENA's Cost AnalysisMichael Taylor
Solar PV costs have fallen dramatically since 2009 as solar PV module prices fell. However, wide variations in installed costs exist not only within a country, but between countries.
How large are these differences? What is driving the difference in costs between systems? How can we accelerate solar PV costs to "competitive" levels?
IRENA has started to collect the data to analyse these questions and others. Can you help us with data? What are the questions you need answering? Our work is ongoing and we welcome engagement by stakeholders.

PV Manufacturing in Europe - European Technology and Innovation Platform Phot...Cluster TWEED
The PV Manufacturing in Europe Conference organised by the European Technology and Innovation Platform for Photovoltaics (ETIP PV) took place on 18 & 19 May 2017, at the BIP House in Brussels.
Key industry leaders, scientists, engineers, and policy makers joined to debate the status and future of "PV Manufacturing in Europe". Over 120 PV specialists from 16 European countries attended the conference.
Welcome to the 21st edition of the international survey report on Trends in Photovoltaic (PV) Applications up to 2015, provided to you by the IEA PVPS Programme.
The “Trends Report” is one of our flagship publications and a worldwide reference regarding the global photovoltaic market development. The unique series of “Trends Reports” has covered the transition of PV technology from its early and expensive niche market developments in the 1990s to the recent large scale global deployment and increased competitiveness. In contrast to 2014, 2015 has seen an impressive growth and acceleration of the global market deployment with about 50,7 GW of additional installed capacity, 26,5% above 2014, of which about 40 GW were installed in IEA PVPS member countries (2014: 34 GW). As in 2014, China, Japan and the USA lead this important growth, accounting for 33 GW of installed capacity in these 3 countries alone. 8 countries have installed more than 1 GW while another 7 countries have markets above 300 MW. The globally installed total PV capacity is estimated at roughly 228 GW at the end of 2015. Although the price reduction for PV systems has continued its trend for a slower decline in 2015, this year (2016) shows evidence of a more rapid cost reduction, in parallel with a trend towards higher overcapacities in the industry. Concerning PV generation costs and more precisely recently contracted power purchase agreements (PPAs), new record values of below 3 USDcents/kWh have been announced, confirming what is achievable today under very good market and solar resource conditions. The other side of the coin is the observation that large parts of the global PV market (78%) are still driven by financial incentives, accompanied by an increasing share of selfconsumption or net-metering (15%) and about 6% of the market coming from competitive tenders.

IEA Technology roadmap solar photovoltaic energy 2014 Andrew Gelston
This document provides a summary and update of the International Energy Agency's 2014 technology roadmap for solar photovoltaic energy. It envisions solar PV providing up to 16% of global electricity by 2050, compared to 11% in the 2010 roadmap. Significant cost reductions have already been achieved, with further reductions possible through targeted research and development. Large-scale integration of variable solar PV will require measures to ensure grid stability and flexibility. Clear and predictable policy support is needed to continue driving down costs and overcoming non-economic barriers to deployment in order to achieve the roadmap's vision.

This webinar will address the key drivers of the PV market and industry in the coming years based on the Trends 2020. Gaëtan Masson, Operating Agent of IEA PVPS Task 1, will look at the past developments and future scenarios, from a global market development point of view to some key price evolution features. From social aspects of PV, collective and decentralised self-consumption policies to floating PV, this webinar will browse the global landscape of PV development.
Izumi Kaizuka, deputy chair of the IEA PVPS Task 1, will present the trends of the PV Industry. The production of polysilicon, ingots, wafers, PV cells and modules have been growing with the growth of the PV market. The gap between manufacturing capacity of PV module and the demand contributed to the recent price reduction thus resulted in lower LCOE of PV power. Across the value chain, the PV upstream sector makes efforts to improve efficiency, output and reliability. Further progress of cost reduction is expected. In the downstream sector, players are also applying various methods to reduce LCOE.

Cost development of renewable energy technologiesLeonardo ENERGY
This course covers the cost development of renewable energy technologies, which includes the analysis of technological change, in particular with regard to technological learning, the assessment of learning rates of renewable energy technologies available in literature and forecasting studies. For many (energy) technologies, a log-linear relation was found between the accumulated experience and the technical (e.g. efficiency) and economic performance (e.g. investment costs). The rate at which cost decline for each doubling of cumulative production is expressed by the progress ratio (PR). A progress ratio of 90% results in a learning Rate (LR) of 10% and similar cost reduction per doubling of cumulative production (IEA 2000; Junginger, Sark et al. 2010). Learning curves for the renewable energy technologies as well as levelised cost of electricity will be presented. The latter also include the impact of resource conditions (e.g. wind and solar yield) at different locations as well as operation and maintenance costs and fuel expenditures in the case of biomass technologies.
Italy has seen significant growth in solar PV installations over the past decade. By the end of 2016, Italy had over 730,000 PV plants totaling 19.3 GW of capacity.

The cost of incentives for solar PV in 2016 was 6.7 billion euros, mainly to support the country's energy account program. Solar PV is also contributing to reductions in greenhouse gas emissions in Italy by avoiding over 11 million tons of CO2 emissions annually.

Global renewable energy capacity has grown significantly, with China now the global leader in installed capacity of all types. Solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity has seen the biggest growth rate, doubling to over 200 GW globally since 2013 due to massive investment, particularly from China. China has become the dominant player in the global PV industry, producing over 80% of global solar cells while also growing its domestic PV installations the fastest of any country. The commercial success of PV is largely attributed to the combination of supportive European policies and China's low-cost mass production capabilities.
