Addressing renewables integration


But key to growth will be how renewables are implemented

Key renewable technologies


Wind
Onshore wind turbines Offshore wind with direct drive

Solar
Photovoltaic (PV) panel farms Concentrated solar power (CSP)

Technologies that facilitate renewables integration


Gas/renewables integration: Maximize clean tech usages Smart grid: How to maximize efficiency and performance?

Addressing renewables integration


GE is ready to partner in developing a greener future
MetCap (Turkey, 530MW) WiMax (Australia)

Worlds first Integrated Renewables Combined Cycle power plant Includes GE 9FB gas turbine with 22MW GE wind turbines, and 50MW eSolar CSP technology, integrated by GE Mark Vie controls

Utility SP AusNet to link 680,000 customers with smart meters GE to provide the meter communications technology and smart meters, together with Landis+Gyr

Public/private cooperation
For solar, strong govt support by Germany built market
Evolution of solar market development in Germany III. Results

I. Initial situation

II. Policy developed

Unfavorable for solar


Lack of regulatory frameworks concerning solar Fluctuating electricity prices make solar economics weak Difficulty in dispatching PV power

Govt policy support


Reliable FiT policy developed in 1990 Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) passed, prioritizing renewables Easy permitting, interconnect procedures

Solar energy leader


~17GW total installed base in 2010, from less than 300MW in 2000 Reduction of 3.6M tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions 79,000 new jobs in Germany for solar

Public/private cooperation
For APAC, ADB task force is a conduit to develop solar
Arrival point
Renewables leader

Develop public private partnerships

Initial point
Weak uncertain market

Dialogue to create roadmap for future energy needs

Governments to provide policy and regulations to support
