Germany Renewables Report Q4 2014, New Report Launched

Germany's renewables expansion, although hugely successful in terms of growth, has had major implications on the country's power sector - and wider economy. These include elevated electricity costs, grid instability, an erosion of economic competitiveness and a fall in wholesale electricity prices. German's renewables expansion has been undeniably successful in terms of capacity growth over the last three years and the contribution renewables generation makes to the country's electricity mix.

Focusing primarily on wind and solar power, the country has firmly established itself as the European bellwether for green energy. The government has established a target for electricity generation from renewable sources, aiming to expand renewables so that they contribute 35% to total electricity generation in the country by 2020, and 80% by 2050.

Hungary Power Report Q4 2014, New Report Launched

Power generation will rise by steadily over the ten-year forecast period, from 35.4 TWh in 2014 to 38.4TWh by 2023. Thermal energy will remain the single largest component in Hungary's power mix, and an expansion in of gas-fired electricity will constitute most of the expected rise in output. Meanwhile, consumption of power will rise by an average of 1.3% a year over the next decade, underpinned by a steady growth in the construction sector. The major background development will be massive investment in the Paks nuclear power station which will significantly expand production of nuclear power just beyond the ten-year forecast period to 2023.

Key Trends and Developments

The government is continuing its policy of imposing administered cuts in the price of electricity. Following a 20% fall it 2013, a further cut of 5.7% is planned for September 2014. The brunt of these price reductions is being borne by energy providers, which are seeing their profitability fall as a result. Longer term, the state-owned energy holding company MVM intends to start selling power on a non-profit basis to force its major private competitors to maintain low prices.

Wind Turbine Gearbox Market is Expected to reach $7billion by 2020, Finds New Report

This growth was primarily due to the increasing number of installations that are expected to be made in the forecast period. The average cost of a gearbox unit is also expected to have declined by 2020, due primarily to the technological improvements made to gearbox equipment. Against this backdrop, the value of the global wind turbine gearbox market is expected to reach $7 billion by 2020, equivalent to growth at a CAGR of 7.8% between 2013 and 2020. Offshore and onshore wind turbine gearboxes are expected to contribute respective totals of $1.7 billion and $5.3 billion in 2020.

The global wind turbine gearbox market, which includes independent suppliers and in-house manufacturers, is dominated by Winergy and China High Speed Transmission Equipment. The two companies account for a combined 60% share of global gearbox production for wind turbines in 2013. Winergy leads global wind turbine gearbox production, accounting for a 31% share, followed closely by China High Speed Transmission Equipment with 29%, ZF Wind with 12% and Bosch Rexroth with 5%. Gamesa Corporacion Tecnologica (Gamesa) and Moventas account for respective shares of 5% and 2%.

Global Gearbox Market Value to Reach $7 Billion by 2020, Finds New Research Report

The value of the global gearbox market increased from an estimated $1.9 billion in 2006 to $4.0 billion in 2013 at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 10%. This growth was primarily due to the increasing number of installations that are expected to be made in the forecast period. The average cost of a gearbox unit is also expected to have declined by 2020, due primarily to the technological improvements made to gearbox equipment. Against this backdrop, the value of the global wind turbine gearbox market is expected to reach $7 billion by 2020, equivalent to growth at a CAGR of 7.8% between 2013 and 2020. Offshore and onshore wind turbine gearboxes are expected to contribute respective totals of $1.7 billion and $5.3 billion in 2020.

Share of Direct-Drive Turbines to Increase due to Low Maintenance Costs

Direct-drive turbines have been in the wind market for a long time, but have gained increasing popularity in recent years. The German Enercon and the Chinese Xinjiang Goldwind Science and Technology (Xinjiang Goldwind) are major companies currently engaged in the manufacture of direct-drive turbines. Enercon utilizes the annular multiple poles generator, which reduces the number of moving components used. Xinjiang Goldwind uses permanent magnet direct-drive technology, whereby the required generator speed is a great deal lower than that of the doubly fed inductor generator system design. This system increases reliability substantially, and reduces maintenance costs. With maintenance time reduced, production time is increased, which provides improved returns. Wind turbine manufacturers such as Siemens and GE are moving away from gearbox turbines towards permanent magnet direct-drive turbines, due largely to increasing gearbox failures. The share of global wind turbine installations accounted for by direct-drive turbines increased from around 16% in 2006 to 26% in 2013.

Independent Manufacturers Supply Majority of Wind Turbine Gearboxes

The global wind turbine gearbox market, which includes independent suppliers and in-house manufacturers, is dominated by Winergy and China High Speed Transmission Equipment. The two companies account for a combined 60% share of global gearbox production for wind turbines in 2013. Winergy leads global wind turbine gearbox production, accounting for a 31% share, followed closely by China High Speed Transmission Equipment with 29%, ZF Wind with 12% and Bosch Rexroth with 5%. Gamesa Corporacion Tecnologica (Gamesa) and Moventas account for respective shares of 5% and 2%.

Global Biopower Market - Capacity, Generation, Market Size, Major Feedstock, Regulations, and Key Country Analysis to 2025, New Report Launched

Global Biopower Market to Show Steady Growth until 2025 despite Slump in Annual Additions

Global cumulative biopower installed capacity increased significantly from 49 Gigawatts (GW) in 2006 to 87.6 GW in 2013. A major portion of this increased capacity employed several biomass conversion technologies, while a small portion used landfill gas or biomass gasification complemented by biogas conversion technology. The rise in global installed capacity during this period can be attributed to the installations in Brazil and China. Brazil used almost entirely solid-biomass conversion, with negligible biogas capacity addition. China, on the other hand, installed both biomass and biogas plants. Steady growth of the cumulative capacity is expected to continue, to reach 165.1 GW by the end of 2025, with more than 80% of the capacity using solid biomass conversion technology.

Wood Waste, Bagasse and Municipal Solid Waste to Remain Major Feedstocks

By mid-2014, wood waste was the most-used biopower feedstock, based on cumulative capacity. Around 32% of all biopower capacity used wood waste as their primary feedstock, as it is very widely available from a number of sources, such as timber businesses. Bagasse was the second most popular, with a 25.77% share, driven by sugarcane’s status as a major crop in India, Brazil and China, three of the largest biopower markets. Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), which is also a universally available feedstock, was the third most popular at 16.72%. Landfill gas, wastewater and palm oil had smaller shares, while other feedstock materials contributed 17.25% of the biopower capacity. In 2019, the shares of these feedstock materials are expected to be more or less the same.

Brazil and the UK had the Largest Solid Biomass Capacity Additions in 2013

In 2013, Brazil installed the largest biomass power capacity globally, with 1,730 Megawatts (MW), or 29.7% of the total for that year. The UK was a distant second at 12%, with an annual capacity addition of 641 MW. India, which has a large potential for biomass power, made a significant addition to its capacity with 500 MW, which equated to 10% of the global capacity addition. Thailand, Germany, China, Poland, and Italy followed, with 7.3%, 6.5%, 5%, 4.8% and 2.6% respectively. All other countries’ biomass power capacity additions accounted for the remaining 22% of the global annual capacity.
