INTRODUCTION
STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
BCC's goal in conducting this study was to assess the technical status and identify and quantify market opportunities for small hydroelectric power plants and equipment, and ocean energy conversion (OEC) devices.
The level of detail for market coverage includes state, national, regional, and worldwide totals.
The investigation included developing a rationale for projecting the evolution of the markets for the equipment through 2008. For small hydro, the study focuses on an upper bound of 10 MW capacity and a lower bound of 1 MW, except in a few instances where the national definition of small hydro is different and impacts the market in that country.
Small hydro turbines included in this capacity range are Francis, Kaplan, Pelton, Turgo, crossflow, and propeller devices.
Ocean energy conversion (OEC) systems, covering ocean current, ocean thermal, tidal, tidal current and wave energy facilities, were examined in their totality. No specific bounds have been established for these technologies in terms of the necessary output relative to cost because all OEC technologies have limited deployment at present. The market potential, however, is very large.
A new class of hydromechanical energy conversion device has recently emerged, called freestream hydroturbines. These devices cross over both ocean tidal current and river-based categories. Market forecasts were developed for both applications.
Markets for technologies do not evolve in a vacuum. A goal of the research for this report was to investigate, characterize and quantify the impacts of resource location, capital availability, political forces, government incentives, international mandates, permitting issues, and environmental factors that impede or enhance the markets.
The technical status of each of the technologies was also examined to determine whether trends are emerging in the preferences for one technology over another, or whether technological advances were priming one technology to supercede another.
REASONS FOR DOING THIS STUDY
The renewable energy technologies industry has climbed into the realm of big business.
Large wind turbines joined small hydro and biomass in the billion-dollar annual revenue realm in the late 1990s. Photovoltaics reached that level in 2000 and now megawatt-scale projects regularly occur. Geothermal power plants have become a short-listed option wherever a sufficient resource is present. A slew of new OEC technologies have been developed and demonstration projects are being deployed in the waters off four continents.
This study was performed to pinpoint and characterize opportunities for growth of small hydro and OEC technologies. The goal was to quantify their current and future installed capacity and to place a dollar value on those shipments.
For equipment manufacturers, this study is designed to serve as a guide for directing marketing and sales efforts, as well as for manufacturing capacity planning. A number of project developers are profiled that operate in different parts of the world to provide marketing opportunities for companies that manufacture small hydro equipment.
This report aids project planners, developers and financiers as they assess the potential for success of small hydro or ocean energy conversion technologies in a given location. Analyses are carried out of the government and utility policies, resources, utility rates, interconnection procedures, subsidies, and tariff schemes for many of the countries examined in this report. The study describes the forces driving the rapid growth of renewables markets, including regulatory and financial incentive schemes that governments, private organizations and international organizations have put into place to foster renewables industries.
As with other bulk power production equipment, the economics of renewables are strongly influenced by regulatory, subsidy and taxation considerations that vary from continent to continent, nation to nation, state to state, utility to utility. The contents of this study are intended to provide clear views of the social, political, and economic environments in which these technologies must come to market.
One nearly universal concern is global warming, a nascent catastrophic environmental situation whose existence has finally been admitted by all but the most committed to denial. A second environmental factor is the growing epidemiological evidence that millions of instances of respiratory illnesses and fatalities are caused by emissions from fossil-fueled power plants. A final major global concern is typified by the events of September 11, 2001. That series of catastrophes emphasized the dangers of dependence and involvement of oil-addicted western nations with unstable fundamentalist cultures that have access to the world information utility, large amounts of capital, and materials that can be put to destructive use.The expanding market for renewables has now become large enough so that it has begun to impinge on the market shares of conventional power generation technologies such as coal- and gas-fired power plants, diesel generators, and large hydropower. Nuclear is dying because of its costs, insoluble waste problems and the terrorism threat.
This study was performed to identify and quantify the driving factors in markets for small hydro and OEC technologies, the key players, the technologies, the economics and the market potential of these new and established industries.This report is the third in a series of BCC Research reports that examine the level of potential deployment of bulk renewable energy sources with what can be realized in the near- to mid-term.
This shift to renewables is altering the flow of money from established power production industries to alternative sources of energy. Some of the technologies, like small hydro, are no longer alternatives. They are mainstream. The generator technologies used in small hydro facilities are finding their way into OEC installation, while tidal stream generators are being tested in rivers.
For OEC technologies, answers were sought as to the pace of the shift from development to mainstream, its magnitude, where it is happening, and the implications for the fiscal evolution of the various technologies examined.
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE STUDY AND FOR WHOM
The analyses contained in this report were garnered from primary sources that include manufacturers, inventors, utility representatives, vendors, end users, government regulators and researchers, financial institutions, and venture capitalists. Secondary sources that were examined include financial reports, printed and electronic news releases, magazine articles, newsletters, technical and topical books, and trade publications. Extensive use was made of existing BCC Research data files and publications, and the World Wide Web.This report and its analysis are of interest to manufacturers of equipment and balance of plant components, project developers, equipment integrators, distributors, contractors, government legislators and regulators, funding and energy agencies, international development banks and agencies, investment bankers and underwriters, venture capitalists, corporations, municipal governments, utilities, carbon traders, green power vendors, and national and state clean energy fund administrators.
SCOPE AND FORMAT
The scope of this study encompasses small hydroelectric facilities and ocean energy conversion (OEC) technologies (ocean current, thermal, tidal, tidal current, and wave).BCC analyzes each technology, determines its current market status and readiness for market, examines its impact on future markets, and presents forecasts of market evolution through 2008. Assessments are made in terms of the installed and future installed capacities and annual project revenues. Where appropriate, markets are examined on the basis of geographic distribution.
The emerging variety of wave and tidal energy conversion devices is explored, and the market potential for each is assessed. Attention is given to the overlap in application for the new class of underwater kinetic energy conversion technologies, the freestream hydroturbine. Market assessments are made for both freshwater and ocean market penetration for these devices.
Small hydro markets are investigated in terms of the annual new capacity and project revenues (on a geographic basis) for this well-established technology.
Attention is devoted to factors such as Green Power programs, green tags/certificates, Social Benefit Charges, Clean Energy Funds, Renewable Portfolio Standards, the U.K. Renewables Obligation, the Kyoto Protocol and the Clean Development Mechanism, the Prototype Carbon Fund, environmental concerns and mandates, zoning issues, permitting, and cost comparisons.BCC analyzes the industry on a worldwide basis, from the perspectives of manufacturing, product and market evolution, government incentive programs, mandatory green energy purchases, and market readiness or maturity. We examine legislative and regulatory support programs for renewable energy, with discussion of their pertinence for small hydro and ocean energy conversion systems (OECS).The report evaluates the market opportunities for renewables in terms of the regulatory practices of nations, provinces, and states, international agreements, the financial incentives and barriers to uptake of the various technologies, and the capability of a given region to utilize the various technologies.
The world resource for small hydro and ocean energy is estimated, as is the extent that resources can be tapped on a mass basis and where. The suitability of the technologies for various regions is examined and motivations for selection of particular technologies are discussed.This report is laid out to provide an overview of the world renewable energy bulk power market, then assess the relative contribution of small hydro and ocean energy systems within the international, national, and state frameworks that are pertinent to market development or hindrance.
An attempt is made to characterize the fiscal, environmental and political forces shaping the world market for renewables technologies. Separate sections are then provided that delineate the world, regional and national, and local (in as granular a representation as is feasible or seems appropriate) markets for each of the technologies covered in this report. Each technology is considered for its functional aspects, fit to the application and location, costs, maintenance, market position and prospects, and the manufacturers' ability to conceive, develop, finance, execute and operate commercial projects.
Some speculation was made with regard to OEC technologies, since their stage of development (outside of a few notable exceptions) has thus far limited them to demonstration projects. All markets are examined in terms of the growth or decline of installed capacity and expected revenues within the forecast interval covered in this report (through 2008).
METHODOLOGY
BCC analyzed the small hydro and OEC generating capacity shipped through 2003 and expected to be shipped by the end of 2008. A number of forecasts were also developed for freestream hydroturbines, a crossover technology used for both run-of-the-river and tidal current power generation. Our estimated value is the project revenue in 2003 dollars and, where appropriate, in terms of annual new projects, annual new capacity, cumulative capacity (megawatts) and annual revenue.
Market forecasts were developed according to the realm of technology and the state, province, nation, and region being discussed.
Various assumptions were made for unit capacity. The underlying rationales for the assumptions are provided with the relevant market forecasts.Forecasts were generated on the basis of unit counts by various international and national government agencies, market sector associations, and financial reports and press releases by manufacturers. Consideration was also given to funding programs by international, national and local funding agencies, as well as government policies toward the development of certain renewable energy technology sectors.
Extensive efforts were made to assess the real world support mechanisms for each of the technologies examined, as well as the developable portion of the global and local resources.
Revenues were calculated according to historical average costs in a given country. For small hydro, the predominance of new or renovation projects was taken into consideration when generating revenue forecasts.
Care was taken to understand the impacts of international agreements and national laws and subsidies that support deployment and growth in the markets for renewable energy in general and for the specific technologies examined.
INFORMATION SOURCES
BCC surveyed numerous companies, consultants, and government branches to obtain data and background information for this study. Included were manufacturers of small hydroelectric generators and total systems, plus developers of ocean current, ocean thermal, tidal current, tidal and wave energy conversion devices.
Conversations were also held with green power marketers, permitting specialists, project developers, project engineering firms, government regulators and researchers, bankers, venture capitalists and utility representatives.
In addition, data was compiled from financial and trade information, government sources and technical societies. Extensive use was made of World Wide Web sources in order to develop a comprehensive, quantitative view of world markets in as efficient a manner as possible.
