The entire electricity industry and its supporting infrastructure have reached a critical watershed, and dramatic changes are in progress. 8The next few years will be the last in which grids in industrialized nations are organized and operated in the same way as they have been for recent decades. 8Electricity will increasingly be generated by different means, predominantly from renewables, and across all generation scales from massive offshore wind farms to domestic rooftop PV. 8New owners, users and traders will spring up, and the EV revolution is just about to start. 8As per a fresh report, by the end of its forecast period in 2050, the electricity system, its culture, and its personnel will be unrecognizable. 8Engineers, regulators, governments, business management, and C-suites will need to rise to this challenge.

China is clearly ahead in the renewable game than the rest of the world. 8A country that for more than a decade has led the world in greenhouse gas emissions, where coal-fired power has long dominated the energy mix, has today embraced renewables in a big way. 8China is likely to reach its 2020 goal of producing 110 GW of solar power; it also wants to generate at least 210 GW of wind power by 2020, and the International Energy Agency (IEA) has said it’s likely to hit that target in 2019. 8What is more, six of the top 10 solar panel manufacturers are Chinese. 8An example of Chinese innovation is the Longyangxia Dam Solar Park with solar arrays covering more than 10 square miles. The solar park is coupled to one of the hydro plant’s quick-response turbines, which smooths the output curve of the PV power caused by fluctuations in sunlight due to cloud cover and time of day. Balancing the variable generation is key to enabling reliable power transmission to the grid via the hydro-power plant. 8A new research report now claims that China will eventually dominate the offshore wind energy space, with more than 50% of global offshore wind output coming from there. Click on Reports to know more on what China has been doing on this countDetails
Offshore wind energy is the new buzzword in investment circles 8A new report finds a technical potential of 2,058 GW of offshore wind resource capacity is accessible in U.S. waters using existing technology. This is equivalent to an energy output of 7,200 terawatt-hours per year -- enough to provide nearly double the total electric generation of the United States as of now. Currently, the US has around 23,000 MW of offshore project under development. 8Offshore wind costs are falling globally and it is likely that the European Union will meet its goal of a levelized cost of energy of $112/MWh by 2020. 8By Indian standards, these costs are still high but more cost savings likely on account of technological advances and digitization. Significant fall in offshore tariffs is likely beyond 2020. 8Offshore turbine sizes are getting larger and 10 MW units are likely to be in production soon 8What is more new floating offshore wind energy projects have shattered the myth that such units should be anchored to shallow waters Click on Reports for moreDetails

The clean energy narrative continues to change contours every now and then. 8Till sometime ago, a diversification away from dirty fuels to clearer energy was stated to be an imperative for the energy industry but on account of rising demand for fossil fuels, higher oil prices and an uptick on coal production and trade, as well as the ascent of President Trump, the green drive has been put on the backburner. 8Eventually however, for energy companies, particularly oil & gas and thermal power companies, given the compulsions of global warming and the determined effort towards decarbonization, there must always be a lookout for greener assets. 8In this context, the website is of the view that for large Indian oil & gas companies, exploring the possibility of setting up offshore wind projects seems like a good entry point for some of them. Some of our companies such as RIL and ONGC operate in and around potential sites for offshore wind power assets. The deployment challenges are also similar for oil & gas as well as offshore wind assets. 8The investment size is large and so is the green windfall. 8Such investments will also be a good fit for NTPC or a consortium of public sector power companies. 8The website carries here a full set of templates for an offshore wind farm in India. 8There are no doubt some uncertainties in building such wind farms in India. 8Estimating the levelised cost of energy (LCOE) of an offshore wind farm as well as related economic metrics such as net present value (NPV) or internal rate of return (IRR) will be a challenge due to the range of technical and economic factors in play and their associated uncertainties.

How is Coal India Ltd going to fare going ahead? 8The company reported a 9.4% production growth and 5.5% offtake growth YoY in March 2018. 8Production jumped significantly in March this year in relation to the scanty 1-2% growth seen in the previous months of the year. 8Offtake growth remained strong at 5.5%, due to higher coal demand and falling hydro power PLFs during the month. 8Additionally, FY18 growth stood at 2.4% for production and 6.9% for offtake. Production growth was lower than offtake as CIL was depleting its stocks estimated at 50MMT. 8With stable power demand growth (5%-6%), coal production growth will have to go up, given the depleting stocks. 8While March production growth was encouraging, data for the next few months will have to be analyzed to see whether growth is going to be sustainable.

Power Generation during Q4FY18 increased by 3.9% yoy 8Coal based generation improved by 5.1% while nuclear power output went up by 6.0% 8The point to note however is that hydro generation declined by 8.4%. Decline in the Hydro segment's generation was primarily due to low water levels across the reservoirs (following poor rainfall) and lower snow fall during Q4FY18. 8Gas power output stayed flat 8Average spot rate on the exchanges improved by 56.8% yoy to Rs4.0/unit during Q4FY18. 8Coal dispatches to the Power sector improved by 11.4% yoy 8All this means that NTPC and other thermal generators are likely to post better performance while NHPC will exude weaker fundamentals Click on Reports for more

There is no denying the fact that in the midst of looking at immediate imperatives, oil & gas companies may end up ignoring the risks that climate change can entail. 8Even by projected New Policies Scenario (NPS) of the IEA, the quantum of emissions which will be let out would make the Paris goals unachievable, exhausting the carbon budget for the 1.5 degrees Celsius limit by 2022, and for a 2 degrees limit by 2034. 8A vast majority of the fossil fuel investments are not compatible with Paris Goal any more Clear risk 8The clear risk is that either this volume of investments makes the Paris goal unachievable. If the Paris emission goals are achieved, then the capital invested will be wasted, potentially leading to a massive economic crisis. 8Anyone with a longer horizon on the industry must not miss out on these risk factors. Click on Reports for moreDetails
The remaining carbon budgets associated with the Paris goals are now extremely small: at current rates of emissions, the 1.5 degree budget will be exhausted in eight years, and the 2 degree budget in nineteen years. 8The IEA has now been accused of accepting a mere 50 percent probability of success of achieving the climate goals and that too by assuming negative emissions technologies will be invented, and by assuming unrealistically low non-energy emissions 8The IEA therefore is alleged to be grossly understating the degree of change in energy systems needed to achieve the goals. 8Then again, contrary to the principle of Common but Differentiated Responsibilities, the IEA expects the majority of emissions reductions to occur in poor countries. 8This is both unjust and understates the needed cuts in IEA full member countries. 8For example, India is to cut its 2040 emissions by 46 percent, despite its pressing developmental needs, but the European Union by only 40 percent.

The climate change risk is also accentuated by faulty assumptions. 8Negative emissions technology remains completely untested yet it is the basis on which emission projections are made by responsible research organizations around the world. 8Carbon Capture and Storage technology has now been found to be unworkable. 8Afforestation cannot take the load as even IEA's diluted emission standards will require building a forest cover in an area twice the size of India. 8So where does the world go from here?
