Promoting RE in Portugal – Implications for China

Abstract The government officials charged with implementing China’s renewable energy law have been investigating how to implement both a wind concession/tendering scheme and a standard feed-in tariff policy, while at the same time incorporating incentives for local renewable energy equipment manufacturing. Portugal’s renewable energy policy is an interesting case study because that country has also sought to implement these three concepts into a coherent renewable energy policy. This paper summarizes the Portuguese policy measures promoting renewable energy. It discusses the principal supporting instruments that have been established, with particular emphasis on the feed-in tariff regulation for electricity from renewable sources. A striking element of that regulation is the specific formula that is used to calculate the effective remuneration for renewable energy projects, on a monthly basis, with respect to the individual features of the power generation facility in question. This formula is therefore presented in some detail. The second part of this paper reviews the large utility tender for wind power that was released by the Portuguese government in 2005. Besides seeking to increase the installed capacity of wind power in the country, this tender aimed to establish a wind turbine manufacturing industry in Portugal. This was done by introducing local content requirements. The present paper lists the requirements potential bidding parties had to meet. It further discusses how bids were evaluated, as well as their interaction with the existing feed-in scheme for renewable electricity. The paper concludes with a brief presentation of the tender outcomes, and an overview of plans for additional tender calls. Although experience from Portugal is not necessarily applicable to China’s unique conditions, three elements of this experience may be of particular interest to our Chinese colleagues: a) The design of Portugal’s feed-in tariff policy, and how feed-in tariff levels are established, b)How Portugal has implemented both a tendering/concession program and feed-in tariff policy, and the relationship between these two types of support mechanisms, c) The design of Portugal’s tendering system, including incentives and requirements for local wind manufacturing, and bid evaluation methods.

Research Report Executive Summary: China Wind Power Development Towards 2030-Feasibility Study on Wind Power Contribution to 10% of Power Demand in China

Abstract In order to quickly turn wind power into an alternative energy, ERI’s Center for Renewable Energy Development has worked together with the China Meteorological Administration, the State Grid Corporation of China, the China Electric Power Research Institute, the Hydropower and Water Resources Planning and Design General Institute, the Chinese Wind Energy Association and many other organizations to analyze the supporting conditions needed for rapid wind development in China, and to recommend ambitious wind development targets for 2030. This research has analyzed the feasibility of realizing the 10 percent target from such perspectives as energy and electricity demand, wind energy and land resources, and wind power technology and grid support, and will put forward policy recommendations.

Setting up of Chinese Wind Power Prediction System

Abstract The experience in advanced wind power countries indicates that wind power forecasting (WPF) technology is one of the effective measures to mitigate peak-load regulation pressure, reduce reserve capacity and increase wind power accommodation capacity for power grids. Recently, the leading countries in wind power in Europe and the United States have already established impeccable management mechanism in WPF, and their forecast is performed both in wind farm side and dispatching facility side. But in China, the WPF systems, though, are popular in dispatching side; the WPF systems in wind farm side are still blank. This report, combining the international experience and national situation, studies on the tailor-made wind power forecasting system framework and implementation plan in China. Based on the deep investigation of international experiences and the complete analysis of the main responsibility of the shareholders, combining the current status of the WPF technologies in china, the research proposes a tailor-made framework and implementation plan of the wind power prediction system with Chinese characteristic. The research results will develop the advantages of all the participants to boost the development and application of WPF technology.

Steps Towards a Wind Resource Concession Approach in China

Abstract In the past, China has typically met its increased demands for electricity by burning more coal, but this has had very serious environmental consequences. The country has abundant wind resources, and the environmental benefits of utilizing this renewable resource are likely to be considerable. In order to spur its development, it has been proposed that the wind resource be treated much like oil or natural gas—and that Wind Resource Concessions (WRC) be established and granted to developers offering the most attractive bidding prices. This report addresses the potential use of the WRC approach within China. Both the conventional energy business and renewable energy business are affected by WRC. Their concerns are described, and the single most problematic aspect of wind power development—its high cost with respect to alternatives—is then addressed. Wind power will require governmental support, and this report describes potential policy approaches for providing such support, and for developing the WRC program.

Study on Fiscal and Tax Incentive Policies for China’s Wind Power

Abstract China’s wind power resources mainly gather in the three northern areas (Northeast China, North China, and Northwest China). The state planned seven wind power bases of 10 million kw at the end of 2008, among which, six were located in remote backward areas of North China, without any superior industry. The development of wind power will become the main way for these areas to develop economy and expand employment. However, the VAT transition policies implemented as of 1 January 2009 allowed enterprises to deduct the input tax included in newly purchased machines and equipment, which reduced the local tax payments of wind farms remarkably. Meanwhile, since the development of wind power belongs to infrastructure project, the preferential enterprise income tax policy of three-year exemption and three-year half reduction accessible reduces the interests available for local government from the development of wind resource in the early stage. In order to benefit from the wind power development, some areas even require wind power development enterprises mandatorily to introduce wind turbine or spare parts manufacturers while developing wind farms locally. This practice has, on the one hand, aroused the local protectionism in wind turbine selection; on the other hand, formed the manufacturing of wind turbines bloomed almost everywhere, and caused the waste of investment and overcapacity. Therefore, in order to develop the wind resource better, research on wind power-related fiscal and tax policies is in urgent need. The constitution of reasonable and effective wind power-related fiscal and tax policies will offer policy guarantee to the massive development of wind power in the future.
