7 Oeriew of indicator set Policy performance indicators Policy effectieness indicator Support leel s generation cost Profit range (efficiency) Ex-post ealuation of policy performance Market status indicators Deployment status indicator Electricity market preparedness indicator Framework conditions for RE policy (RET market maturity, electricity market) Used (e.g. by EC) since 2005 and constantly improed, updated, extended. 6
8 Deployment Status Indicator A rough characterisation of the status of 14 in 27 Member States For differentiation in policy performance analysis Three sub-indicators expressing different aspects of RET deployment status Deployment Status Typical characteristics Production as % of sector consumption Production as % of 2030 potential Installed capacity >100MW Adanced Established players, fully mature technology, growth may slow down. Shows releancy & isibility on energy market Intermediate Increasing market, strong growth. Growth related barriers (e.g. infrastructural and supply chain). Some countries stop at this leel. Immature Small market, few players, low growth. Inexperienced administration & banks. Low or unreliable support. 7 Higher share indicates that low-end barriers hae been oercome; high-end barriers may occur (e.g. integration electricity system) Higher share indicates that low-end barriers hae been oercome; high-end barriers may occur (e.g. competition resources) Passing minimum threshold indicates that market players gained trust & experience. Proof that barriers can be oercome.

15 Conclusions - General 1. Policy performance is rather heterogeneous depending on RET/MS 2. If support leels are below generation costs, little or no capacity growth can be obsered 3. High support leels compared to generation costs do not in all cases lead to substantial capacity growth Growth can be allowed & support leels reduced by reducing barriers, applying best practice support system design and reducing risk -> Triple-A policy presentation 4. Markets with a higher deployment status tend to grow faster. Howeer, examples show that markets can grow quickly without haing a long track-record. Countries with low deployment status can benefit of other countries experiences. Policy effectieness can be rapidly increased by adopting best-practice support policy design and organisation of administratie processes. Can profit from spill-oer effects from internationally aailable project deelopment expertise and supply chain. 5. Support leels heat sector proide less profit than in electricity sector, despite the low generation costs of many RES-H. On aerage, policy effectieness in the heat sector is also lower than in the electricity sector. Ensure balance between deeloping higher cost (progressing on learning cure) and fully utilizing low cost technology potentials (e.g. heat). 14
16 Conclusions Heat sector Reconsider whether obsered low profit leels in heat sector need to be increased 1. RES-H support usually depends on public budget, resulting stop- and go policies create stronger uncertainty for inestors than common in RES-E Apply off-budget policies, e.g. ia surcharge on heat (fuel) cost 2., DK, FI, LV, SE effectiely promoted biomass-based centralised heating. Success factors: Existing district heating networks in Northern Europe, biomass aailability, sufficient heat demand 3. Support for decentralised biomass heating plants is on a higher leel than that of centralised plants 4. BE, CZ, DE, RO most effectiely supported decentralised biomass heating 5. Policy effectieness solar thermal heat rather low (also due to a high remaining resource potential)., GR, CY leading countries 6. Ground-source heat pumps effectiely promoted by using obligations in SE and inestment grants and fiscal incenties HU & FI 7. Long reinestment cycles limit the diffusion rate for the integration of renewable heating systems that are integrated in buildings Due to long reinestment cycles it might be useful to already start now supporting especially those that are likely needed in the future energy system. This might refer especially to that are beneficial for system integration of fluctuating RES-E, like heat pumps or biomass CHP with heat storage. 15
17 Conclusions Electricity sector 1/2 1. Most effectiely supporting wind onshore: IE, PT, ES, DE 2. Wind offshore just starting in UK, IE, DK, DE 3. Most effectiely supporting PV: DE, CZ, IT 4. Most effectiely supporting biogas:, DE, UK 5. BE, SE, NL, DK,, HU, DE and CZ show high policy effectieness in Biomass 6. FIT-countries still show highest effectieness but quota countries are catching up in particular with regard to low cost RET (e.g. wind onshore in UK, IT, BE, SE in 2009). In the same period e.g. in the UK quota system certificate reenue risk has been reduced substantially from an inestment risk perspectie the system is close to a less risky FIP. 7. Remuneration in FIT tends to be lower (higher) for low (high) cost than under a quota. In most quota systems support leels are insufficient for high cost such as PV. Many quota countries offer separate incenties: BE minimum prices for PV, IT FIP for PV, UK FIT for small-scale applications. Technologybanding within the quota as applied in UK can help to support costintensie like wind offshore, but is less suitable for smallscale projects than feed-in tariffs. 16
18 Conclusions Electricity sector 2/2 Differentiate support instruments according to technology maturity (e.g. rather mature wind onshore or rather immature wind offshore), project size (rather kw-range, few MW, or seeral hundred MW), type of enisaged inestor (utilities, new independent power producers, smallscale business, households or farmers), or lender. 1. Stimulated capacity growth may deelop faster than enisaged causing high policy costs. Stop-and-go policies harm industry as a whole. FIT/FIP for RET with rapid cost reduction require frequent tariff adjustment cycles and good coordination of tariff leels with other releant markets. (Frequent) tariff adjustments based on (automatic) adjustment formulae (related to market growth) at dates known to the market sufficiently long beforehand can manage this policy cost risk without negatiely affecting the inestment climate EC could oblige MS to be more transparent in their RES-support. E.g. putting information on (the assumptions for calculating) aerage support and profit leels directly from the MS goernments on a transparency platform. This should help MS to determine (technology-specific) support leels in such a way that they suit their (technology-specific) deployment target. 17
