2011: 7.5 GW installed, total installed

capacitiy: 24.8 GW

2012: Solar electricity cheaper than

the electricity from the grid.

The grid can't handle the addition of

7.5 gigawatts a year.

Change in the subsidization policy to

limit expansion to a reasonable level.

State of the art 2040

PV - Own Consumption 0.4% of the overall generated PV power is used

for own-consumption

2025: 20% of PV generated power for own-consumption (35% in 2040).

Balancing Power Required Balancing Power of ~14-17 GW

In 2025 the demand for Balancing Power increases by 50% to 2010 and by 70% in 2040.

As longtime storage it is the cheapest

alternative to pump storage

It addresses 4 markets:

Vehicle fuel

Chemical, Petrochemical, Metallurgy

and food industry

Heat market/Substitute to natural

gas

Electricity

When it is green, it is CO2 neutral and

can be used highly efficiently in fuel
