Today’s world energy problem

3Confidential Property of Schneider Electric 3
The world population
is growing at an
incredibly rapid rate
We need a safe, environmentally sound,
and economically viable energy solution
that will sustain human progress into the
distant future.

Out of 7.2 billion people
in the world today:
5.2 billion either have no access to
electricity or use unreliable sources for
cooking.

At this rate there will not
be enough fossil fuels to
sustain our rapidly
growing global
population
As the population grows to upwards
towards nine billion people over the next
50 years, the world’s energy demands
will increase proportionately and we
won’t be able to meet the future energy
needs.

If production levels remains constant until
it's gone, we only have…
enough oil to last
42 years
enough natural gas to last
61 years
enough coal to last
133 years

The good news is that
there's an increasingly
greater emphasis and
awareness on the need
to protect environment
On November 12, 2014, USA President
Barack Obama and President Xi Jinping
of China signed the Climate change
protocol and announced an
unprecedented agreement to limit
carbon emissions in an attempt to fight
climate change.

And the increasing
energy security concerns
from citizens is calling for
reducing reliance on
coal, gas or oil imports
With Global Day of Action taking place in
over 84 countries since 2005.

Decreasing system costs
are making solar
increasingly more
competitive
From 2008 – 2015:
German residential system were
ê 78% from $7/w to $1.53/w
California residential system were
ê 59% from $8/w to $3.25/w
Global PV Power Plants systems
ê 52% from $2.57/w to $1.24/w

Overall adoption rate of solar has grown 4 times since
2009
US growth rate

(’08) to 4700MW (’13)
Germany growth rate

Grid parity has already been reached in at
least 19 markets
Residential

Industrial
Commercial & Industrial
Residential & Industrial
Unsubsidized

And by the end of 2014
Solar has already
reached over 177 GW
Which is equivalent to powering about 29
million homes per year.
Almost 30 – 40 GW was installed per
year over the last 4 years.

Solar could outpace fossil fuels, wind, hydro and
nuclear to become the world's largest source of
electricity by 2050

Growth of
PV Power Plants
•  Utility electricity prices are increasing
2-5% year over year
•  Use of solar over utility grid
•  Disappearing feed-in incentives

Growth of
Commercial Solar
Increase use of solar based battery
back-up systems will help protect
commercial businesses from power
outages.

Universities
& Schools

Growth of
Affordable Storage
Storage price declining:
ê 67% by 2020 (McKinsey)
Rising diesel prices:
123% in last 10 yrs
Use of solar and storage to maximize
self-consumption, back-up, reduce peak
demand charges
Utilities and residential homes can
benefit from storage (i.e. Germany and
Hawaii)

Growth of Storage
Applications
> Power Plant grid-connected storage
for:
>  Peak shaving
>  Frequency regulation
>  Voltage support and
>  Renewable firming
> Customer site storage for greater self-
consumption, back-up, and utility
demand-response such as the
Sunverge Solar Integration System
(SIS) which uses a Schneider Electric
Conext XW inverter charger
