The biggest potential for solar thermal solutions is found in Belgium. Indeed, in 2007, there was the equivalent of 1 system enabling space heating, or of 2 solar hot water systems, installed for 1000 inhabitants. These ratios are almost twice as big in the Netherlands and about 2.5 times bigger in Luxembourg. Thus, whatever the country, the market for solar thermal systems still allows some further development in the forecast period. Considering that, on average, a household needs about 2.5 kwp to cover its basic electricity consumption (excluding space heating), the table shows that the Belgian solar photovoltaic market remained broadly underdeveloped. In the Netherlands, the photovoltaic installed base had reached a comparable stage to the solar thermal market. Only Luxembourg benefited from a very high equipment level. Indeed, trade sources reported that Luxembourg appeared as the most densely equipped country with photovoltaic systems in the world. Therefore, if the market potential seems limited in Luxembourg, future prospects are brighter in the Netherlands and even more so in Belgium. Renewable Energies: Benelux January Reports

7 Luxembourg s equipment level for wood fired systems was 4 times that of Belgium, and almost 45 times that of the Netherlands. However, even though the Dutch market shows much more promise at first glance than in the rest of the Benelux region, the fact that little wooded areas are available in this country limits possible future developments in this country. Thus, Belgium will probably present the biggest potential in the forecast period. Belgium s residential installed base of heat pumps was relatively 3 to 4 times less per inhabitant than in the Netherlands, whereas the Luxembourg market appeared almost undeveloped due to structurally high electricity prices. The heat pump market in Luxembourg presents some opportunities for heat pump suppliers, but it is expected to remain restricted. Thus, Belgium shows once again the best prospects.

Indeed, after the introduction of the second programme, it appeared as the first choice among all wood fired systems linked to central heating installations for most households. Households particularly appreciated the fact that the ease of running most wood pellet boilers was close to that of LPG or residential oil boilers, with fuel delivered only once or twice a year, and fully automatic, supplying both hot water and space heating. However, the high investment costs of such systems and constraints linked to pellet supply, such as storage volume needed, supply limitations in some areas, and increase of pellet prices during the review period, noticeably limited the development of these solutions. Sales of wood gasification boilers followed a similar, yet somewhat lessened, pattern. Indeed, such systems provided the same kind of services for households. However, their energy efficiency appeared Renewable Energies: Benelux January Reports

9 significantly reduced, which restricted the interest of most households, except for those living near forests or having easy access to wood waste needed for such equipment. Wood log boilers dominated the market during the existence of the first incentive programme, but lost market share throughout the second programme. This appeared as the least sensitive market to subsidies, since such systems were purchased by those prepared for the inconvenience of manually recharging the boiler or farmers who live close to wooded areas. Such persons were ready to face the constraints of such systems, particularly of preparing wood logs and feeding the boiler, to minimise the investment cost of the system they purchase and to reduce their energy bill. However, this market also presented the smallest potential over the review period. Renewable Energies: Benelux January Reports

These new reports include: New format New graphs PESTEL and SWOT Analysis MARKET DEVELOPMENT FOR RENEWABLE ENERGIES IN BENELUX DEPENDS ON GOVERNMENTAL INCENTIVE PROGRAMS Ensure you gain an advantage over your competitors and receive the latest market trends from the Benelux market for residential renewable energies. This report will complete your knowledge of the market, help you target the needs of your customers and assist you with a range of business planning and strategies. The Benelux market for residential renewable energies had to face a significant decrease of value in the years 2004 and 2005 as a result of the withdrawal of the Dutch governmental incentive program. Starting in the year 2006 the market recovered from the negative trend. Each to the Benelux belonging countries presents different market developments. The Belgium market has been showing the most dynamic and grew in contrast to the overall Benelux trend strongly over the last five years.

11 The Belgium market was the smallest market for renewable energies in Benelux in But over the last five years the market in Belgium has been very dynamic. Due to provided subsidies that lower the investment cost and the increase in traditional energy prices from 2005 onwards it became more and more profitable for households to invest in renewable energies systems. Therefore the Belgian market showed an expansion rate of 631% over the last five years (). In 2007 the Belgian markets for solar thermal, solar photovoltaic and wood fired systems were the biggest of the Benelux markets. Given to the number of inhabitants the value of the renewable energy market in Luxembourg was impressively high in This was almost entirely due to a strong photovoltaic market. However the photovoltaic market declined steeply over the last five years. Being the leader of the Benelux countries in 2003 the renewable energy market in Netherland lost more than half of its market value over the last five years. Especially the solar photovoltaic market decreased significantly. The main reason therefore is to find in the withdrawal of the governmental incentive program. : increase in value expected The future development of the renewable energy market in Benelux depends on different variables like the return on investment (ROI) and the level of the oil price. Therefore the analysis shows three different forecast scenarios. All three expect an increase of the market in general for Benelux and also for every single country up to the year In case of a low ROI and a oil price higher than 140$/barrel in 2012 the forecast shows a market growth of over 200% over the next five year period ().
