Renewable energy offers one of the most promising options for simultaneously achieving the often conflicting goals of economic development and environmental preservation. India has set ambitious targets for increasing the use of its abundant, renewable resources as a part of its energy security and lower carbon path climate policies.

The National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC), announced by the Prime Minister of India on the 30th of June 2008, has also laid special emphasis on renewable energy by including the National Solar Mission as one of the eight National Missions that will be implemented by the Government of India to address the challenge of Global Warming.

I am happy to know that the Exhibitions India Group is organizing the 3rd edition of Renewable Energy India 2009 Expo in New Delhi during August 10-12, 2009. I am sure that the event will offer an opportunity for policy makers, industry leaders, technology experts etc., to come together with the objective of accelerating cost-effective renewable energy development.

I extend my warm wishes to the organizers of the event for its success.

Director-General, The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) and Chairman, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)

It is becoming increasingly apparent that to meet the objectives of energy security and the supply of energy on a sustainable basis, renewable sources of energy would have to be used on a large scale globally in the coming years. This would also be important to mitigate the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs), which have increased substantially with the burning of fossil fuels since industrialization began. It is for this reason that the country’s National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC) provides primacy to the solar mission which has recently been approved in principle for implementation. The target in this mission is the establishment of 20,000 megawatt of solar capacity in India by 2020. Against this background renewable energy developments for India would take off on a large scale and would require an unprecedented level of international cooperation involving a range of business opportunities. Investments in research and development and dissemination of renewable energy technologies will grow correspondingly at a very rapid rate.

Bringing experts involved in the trade, technology and policy aspects of the sector, an event like 3rd Renewable Energy India 2009 Expo enables the rise of new strategies, appropriate policies and cost competitive applications for a progressive energy mix where renewable energy plays a significant role.

My best wishes to the organizers for the success of the event.

2 3rd Renewable Energy India 2009 EXPO

Shri Deepak Gupta, inaugurated the 3rd Renewable Energy India 2009 Expo. Mr Prem Behl extended a warm welcome to more than 385 exhibitors from 27 countries. He spoke about the need to have a coherent roadmap to fully leverage the huge but latent renewable energy sector in India. He also gave a background for the DIREC 2010 which is expected to be held at an even bigger scale. Mr Kuljit Singh, Partner, Ernst & Young, made the theme presentation of the session. The Ernst & Young Renewable Energy Country Attractive index pegs India at number 4 globally and he stressed the fact that in each of the sub sectors the installed capacity needs to be upgraded to tap this vast potential. He addressed the need to explore the avenues of financing and access to growth capital needed for much needed infrastructure development. Shri Deepak Gupta, Secretary, MNRE, acknowledged the renewed interest and the world’s viewpoint against the backdrop of depleting fossil fuels. He stressed on the challenges of new and changing technologies and encouraged participants in the exhibition to take advantage of the platform and help meet challenges ahead. The global renewable energy market is doubling every three years.

Alternative energy is a booming business and India is positioned favourably to take advantage of the growing opportunity with its abundant resources and scientific engineering and R&D capabilities. He also mentioned the fact that India has signed a declaration at the major economies forum on energy and climate (MEF) last month which could create an enabling environment for reaching a climate change agreement during the 15th conference of parties in Copenhagen in December.

Shri Pranav Nahar, MD Evolution Markets India, spoke about the evolution of policy in renewable energy in India, the evolution of Indian entrepreneur / project developer and evolution of markets. Carmine D’alosio, Councellor and Minister for foreign affairs US embassy emphasized about India’s strategic role in the development of clean energy. He also spoke about the challenges to creating a global framework which is recognized by all the developed countries which addresses climate change and looks towards achieving economic growth. He stressed upon the role of PPPs and private sector in this growth and tools such as smart designs, bringing green power to the masses and jump-starting manufacturing, and integrating local industry in the global supply chain.

and also achieve higher steam pressures for higher co generation potential. The session then moved onto the issues of clean development. India represents almost a third of all registered CDM projects and more than a third of registered cogeneration projects. The potential for co generation projects for CDM in India, especially in ‘bagasse’ and waste heat recovery applications were discussed. Looking at the future prospects in paper industry the session then focused on the development of biomass-based cogeneration system, bio-gas generation from carbohydrate rich waste affluent streams and utilization of biogas turbine system and generation of ethanol from cellulosic biomass and the utilization in co generation system. Moving on there was light thrown on cogeneration from an energy conservation perspective and solar thermal development challenges. Another topic discussed was that of tri-generation and its associated policy and regulatory issues, main application areas, cost efficiencies, business opportunities for ESCOs and major project activities. Lastly the session concluded with an introduction to biomass boilers, high pressure cogeneration with biomass in travelling grate boilers and common problems associated with biomass fuels.

Biofuels: Market drivers and outlook This post lunch session focused on the Indian biofuels market. Although oil will remain the leading energy source but factors such as price volatility of oil, oilfield decline will provide a boost to the biofuel industry as an alternative to the oil industry. On the biodiesel front, the session elaborated on R&D work on high oil yielding Jatropha seeds that is underway and pilot projects for plantations and trans-esterification. It was felt that the industry is in the incubation stage but large scale jatropha cultivation and the infrastructure for oil seed collection and oil extraction must be established before the industry can be placed on a rapid growth track. The global market drivers, the out look for biofuel industry, the key drivers – blend rates was discussed. It was felt that the future lies in carbon intensity where the winners will be those biofules with negative CO2 emissions. It was interesting also to get a perspective on biofuels in rural transformation where we saw how biofuels through the use of waste land resulted in higher farm incomes and better quality of life.

Day 1: key highlights

CEO roundtable Ernst & Young and Exhibitions India jointly hosted a CEO roundtable on the theme “Financing renewable energy projects, current experience, challenges and roadmap for the future” at Hall 11, Pragati Maidan. The roundtable was anchored by Kuljit Singh, Partner, Ernst & Young. The roundtable was attended by 10 senior leaders from the renewable energy sector.

It started off with a context setting presentation by Kuljit Singh on “evaluating investments and M&A dynamics in the renewable energy sector”. The extremely lively session was attended by the CEOs from the Solar, Wind, Biomass and Hydro players. They debated and discussed issues in tapping the RE potential in India, challenges faced by foreign developers in entering the Indian RE, the most feasible alternative for fund raising in the current scenario.

It was felt that financing structure is a main issue in attracting investments. Further the bankers could explore lending also to the rural sector where contrary to popular perception the collection rates may actually be high. While grid parity between solar and wind is a debatable issue and the perceptions for achieving

the timelines vary, there was adequate scope for all the sectors in the renewable space in India to grow. Just like telecom sector attracted investments both foreign and Indian, after some incubation period so too would the renewable energy sector – it is just a matter of time.

Potential and challenges faced by various industries involved in cogenerationThe pre lunch session on “Potential and challenges faced by various industries involved in Cogeneration” was extremely informative. The speakers talked about the challenges in future prospects in the paper industry and presented the status of co generation in the Indian context. Issues such as barriers in cogeneration faced by medium and small scale industries, lack of expertise for optimum configuration were also highlighted.

It was heartening to note that India features among the top 15 producers in the global context. The industry however remains fragmented with capacities varying between 2 and 800 tons per day. The session also brought forth the fact that while co-generation improves plant efficiencies considerably, there is a need to maximize co generation by using all internal fuels

In view of the upcoming carbon regulations and carbon taxes, bio fuels could be a viable alternative to diesel and petrol

– Dipankar Ghosh, Partner Ernst & Young


Accelerating the solar economy: How to reduce costs and maximize ROIIn this session the panel came together to discuss a sustainable solution for the challenges being faced by the industry with the perspective of reducing cost and maximization of ROI. The panelists elaborated the fact that solar industry has the greatest cost reduction possibility. The panel members addressed the need for cheaper financing to enhance the return on investment. It was agreed that every household had the potential to become a solar power producer. It is a potential sweet spot where India had the potential to become a global leader along with China by contributing as much as 5% of the global solar energy production by 2020. The panelists felt the need for a feed in tariff, removal of differentials and a proactive government role in providing both regulatory and fiscal support to the developers. The recently announced solar mission which aims s to make solar energy commercially competitive and achieve grid

parity by 2017-20 was also discussed. The panel members ended the session on a unanimous conclusion that government should focus on providing a stable policy regime, rather that providing subsidies.

Does the road to electric vehicles pass through India? The session captured the journey and status of electrical vehicles in India, the buses, cars and two wheelers. It threw light on the increased trend for plug in hybrid cars and hybrid carriers globally with specific examples from the US. It also touched upon electrotherm efforts for growth of electric vehicles and governmental support and how the players foresee the EV target to reduce to CO2 emissions. The session also featured rise of EV’s in China, key best practices of Chinese EV industry and the vision for the future of LEV’s in India. The session addressed the emission and energy security concerns by elaborating on how EVs/HEVs would help us to “preserve our environment” by reducing emission, “reduce dependency on oil” for energy security.

Thin film technologies: an outlook in turbulent timesThe afternoon session started with a look at various thin film technologies and the challenges the industry is facing due of global financial meltdown. The panel members briefly pointed out the issues each of their respective companies were facing and potential solutions.

Securing the finance needed to drive solar forwardThe panel members provided both private equity as well as a venture capitalist perspective into the funding. Some of the panelists felt that there was no need for government subsidy in India and that the solar industry should let the market forces take its course. The members pointed out that the sector has adequate capital available, but the investors were seeking certainty from the government.

Officer, Research and Development, Maruti Suzuki


Issues which may impede organic and inorganic growthSeveral issues, which can potentially be a serious constraint on our growth process in this sector, still remain to be addressed:

The approximate capital cost of wind • power projects on a turnkey basis is INR55-60 million/MW, which is higher than the capital costs of conventional energy. Moreover, the average plant load factors (PLFs) of Indian wind farms stand at around 15%, which is low as compared to the global average of 30%. A low PLF, coupled with the high capital cost, drives down the equity return associated with such investments.

Since buyers take decisions at the last • moment (just before September 30 and March 31 every year to avail of the accelerated tax depreciation), the equipment suppliers in India have evolved as developers themselves. For instance, the equipment suppliers in India typically undertake all development activities including land acquisition, construction, Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) finalization and transmission tie-up; once the project is commissioned, such contractors even undertake operation and maintenance, billing and collection activities for the buyers. Therefore, readymade projects are sold virtually off the shelf by equipment suppliers. Since the equipment suppliers are undertaking the functions of developers as well, buyers are forced to pay a premium for the wind power projects that are being sold to them. This may lead to Indian wind power projects being more expensive and even restrict competition for equipment supplies in India. This is because several international equipment suppliers are not able to compete in the Indian market as they are not in a position (or are unwilling) to undertake all development activities.

Wind farms require large tracts of • open land and as such companies face hurdles and local community opposition in acquiring land. These delays or long lead time usually result in cost escalation, locked-in capital and under-utilization of planned facilities.

The cap of 49MW on the Generation • Based Incentive (GBI) scheme implies that there is no meaningful impact on the equity internal rate of return (IRRs) of most wind power projects since the wind power capacity added in India in one

Wind energy

Until recently, India’s “renewable energy story” was limited to wind energy. The renewable energy industry lacked depth and wind farms mushroomed not because of any specific green energy focus but because wind farm owners were largely driven by high stable returns offered by this sector owing to the accelerated depreciation benefits, coupled with generation returns. A large attraction was also that wind farms rarely necessitated any management focus or staff allocations by the wind farm owners. This is because the equipment manufacturers fashioned themselves as full wind farm developers. This made fully developed projects available on a turnkey basis and also provided complete operations and maintenance services in relation thereto. The promised hassle-free and stable returns drove growth in this segment and the country emerged as the fifth-largest producer of wind energy in the world, with a current installed wind capacity of 10,243 MW.

However, the last couple of years have seen a growing seriousness in this sector, with domestic conventional as well as renewable energy players, global utilities, private equity fund-backed wind energy companies and others are vying for a presence in this sector. To encourage the emergence of serious players, the government has announced generation-based incentives of INR0.50 per kWh of electricity generated, for a period of ten years for grid-connected wind farms. However, the generation-based incentive scheme is currently at a pilot level and is applicable for a 49 MW in aggregate, which means that the subsidy offered to this sector is approximately a meager INR500 million over ten years. Further, assets, which avail accelerated depreciation benefits, are not eligible for this incentive.

Despite the insufficient fiscal support for IPPs, growth has not been impeded and India is today among the fastest growing wind energy markets in the world. During FY05–FY09, the total installed wind power generation capacity in the country has increased at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29.9%. Approximately 95% of the investment in wind power has come from the private sector. Moreover, there has been a steady rise in foreign direct investments (FDI) in wind power projects.

year alone is generally around 30 times this limit of 49 MW. For Independent Power Producer (IPPs) setting up greenfield assets, this implies that the IRRs could be quite low, since accelerated depreciation benefits are not really useful and GBI scheme is not adequate.

The wind power industry in India has • developed uniquely. The entire wind power growth in India has hinged on the 80% accelerated tax depreciation that is provided by the government. In view of this, a bulk of wind power capacity in India has been set up on the balance sheets of existing companies (which may be in diverse businesses such as textiles, steel etc., and are hence in a position to set off the tax depreciation against the income of their other businesses). In view of the same, investment in or acquisition of an existing wind farm poses significant structuring challenges. Any transaction involving either sale or induction of a partner would entail first a ring-fencing of such assets with resultant structuring and tax issues.

In view of the above, there is an urgent need for a significant modification of the policy regime in India to ensure that the wind power sector in India grows in a healthy manner. As a first step, the

over-hang of accelerated tax depreciation needs to be offset by strengthening the GBI scheme. Assuming an average PLF of 25%, the existing GBI cap will lead to a subsidy of just around INR 54 Million per annum by the government. For a country with the second largest population in the world, the above subsidy amount of INR 54 Million per annum would translate into a per capita subsidy of approximately 5 paise per person per annum. Further, since the GBI can be claimed only by giving up the accelerated tax depreciation benefit, it would imply that from the government’s perspective, there would be a tax saving in net present value terms through the denial of accelerated tax depreciation benefit. This tax setting can partially offset the outflow due to the GBI scheme. Therefore, for strengthening the GBI scheme, the cap of 49 MW should be removed and at the same time, the GBI of INR 0.50/kWh itself may also be significantly increased (the US allows a production tax credit of almost double the GBI per kWh allowed in India).

A stronger GBI regime will ensure that wind projects can be set up as Special Purpose Vehicle’s (SPV), which will attract more domestic and international power developers to the Indian wind power space. It will also ensure that buyers of

wind power assets automatically becoming more concerned with the

significant aspects of wind power projects namely wind potential, technical

capability of the machines that they purchase and the reasonableness of the supply

contracts that they enter.

Additionally, in order to ensure that a vibrant secondary

market develops for wind power projects in India, the capital gains tax complication

associated with the sale of wind power projects from existing companies should be addressed.

Basically, the accelerated tax depreciation is a form of subsidy that is being paid to make wind

power projects financial viable. It is just a policy differentiation that unlike other countries in the world

that pay generation linked subsidy, India chose to give subsidy mostly in the form of accelerated depreciation.

But nonetheless both forms of subsidy have the same end objective namely to promote wind power projects by making

them financially viable. In the case of a generation linked subsidy scheme, a sale of wind power project by one entity

to another would not result in very high capital gains liability because the asset being sold would not have an extraordinarily depreciated value. Hence, simply because the form of subsidy has now changed from generation linked subsidy to a subsidy in the form of accelerated depreciation, the capital gains complexity should not arise.

OutlookAmong all the non-conventional energy sources, wind appears to be the most attractive option with the lowest economic cost of generation per kWh, low capital costs and maturing technology vis-à-vis other technologies. These factors are expected to increase wind powered electricity generation worldwide.

According to the Indian Wind Energy Association, the gross potential for wind energy capacity in India is 45 GW, which is approximately more than four times the current installed capacity. There are significant opportunities for Indian wind turbine generator (WTG) manufacturers, not only from the domestic market, but also from overseas, due to their low manufacturing cost advantage and increased stringency in climate change norms, especially in developed countries.

SCHOTT Solar is the oldest still active solar manufacturer in the world. Exhibitions India spoke to Amit Barve, General Manager for Solar Business of SCHOTT in India, and Alden Lee, Sales Director Asia & Pacific, about SCHOTT Solar´s activities in India.

1. How important is the Indian market for SCHOTT Solar?

Lee: India is one of our focus markets in Asia. We are actively involved in the market for more than 10 years now. The need for energy is growing here so fast that India has to utilize renewable energy in order to meet the ever growing demand. Therefore India plays a

significant role in our global growth strategy.

2. What can a German company offer to Indian customers?

Barve: Most important criteria for Large scale Solar power plants is the energy yield over a period of 15-20 years and not the nominal installed capacity. We have Solar modules in the field for more than 25 years and they still performing extremely well. We can provide Solar Modules with highest international standard to Indian companies who are looking forward to durable and reliable products.

3. Which product is most suitable for the Indian market?

Lee: In regions with hot climatic conditions modules with amorphous silicon technology, as the SCHOTT ASI TM, is the best choice. Phoenix Solar, a large scale System Integrator and Installer has made a test in Germany: During the summer ASI has outperformed crystalline panels by far, while crystalline panels performed better in winter time. If the summer is even hotter and longer than in Germany, then ASI produces much more energy than crystalline panels. In Malaysia we have test plants and ASI is producing 15-20 % more kWh than the crystalline panels!

4. What is the price difference between ASI and crystalline panels in India?

Barve: Since ASI needs much less silicon, we can sell our ASI modules around 20 % cheaper in India than crystalline modules. With the added benefit of extra yield and less cost customers can enjoy double benefit of more kWh for less money!

5. Where do you produce these modules?

Lee: We produce all of our ASI modules in Germany. The production is fully automated to ensure consistent high quality of our product.
