Case Study - The Potential for Renewable Energy in New Relandia
New Relandia
New Relandia is a beautiful temperate country bordered by the ocean on one side. It is an agricultural
country and has little heavy industry. It exports agricultural products and some timber and has a rapidly
developing tourist sector. GDP per capita is relatively small (2800$) but growing at 4% per year.
The population of the country is 25 million people and is growing at the rate of 1.5% per year. 55% of the
population live in urban areas – principally the capital Solare and in smaller cities close to the coast such as
Marea, Galesville and Cold Springs. About 70% percent of population has access to electricity,
predominantly those in the urban areas where electricity supply is largely reliable. Traditional biomass
plays a dominant role in the rural areas with no access to modern energy.
The Energy Situation
New Relandia has some oil and gas reserves but these have not yet been exploited. Coal is abundant
enough to feed the existing two coal-fired power generation. Gas infrastructure is almost non-existent.
Total electricity production is currently around 28Twh/y. Electricity is generated from coal (50%), oil (20%)
and large hydro (30%). Installed capacity is 5.5GW, of which 2.5GW are coal fired plants, 2GW are large
hydro plants and 1GW is oil-based generation. Some of oil generation is larger scale but in rural areas diesel
generators are currently used to supply electricity since the grid is not extensive, and 30% of the people of
New Relandia still have no access to mains electricity.

A New Energy Strategy
The President has decided that the current energy situation is holding back the economic development of
the country. 7% of GDP goes to pay for oil imports. The cost of these imports has risen dramatically in the
last year and is very volatile. He also wants to expand the availability of modern energy services to all the
population to act as a spur to further economic development. He is also mindful of the likely impacts of
climate change on the country, and wants to ensure that the country moves towards a sustainable energy
future. He has therefore decided to develop a new national energy plan.
Your Task
As a senior official in the New Relandia Ministry of Energy, you have been asked to prepare a review of the
potential for renewable energy to contribute to the electricity sector within this overall strategy and to
answer the following questions.
Which renewable energy technologies could make a significant contribution to New Relandia’s
electricity needs within the next 10 years?
How much electricity might these technologies be able to supply by the end of that period, and
what would the costs of the electricity be?
How would renewable electricity production help meet the overall energy goals of the country?
What are the issues that might hold back the deployment of the most important technologies?
What policy measures would the Government need to put in place to ensure that renewables
played an appropriate role in meeting the country’s goals?
Renewables Resources
Some preliminary studies have been made of the potential for renewables in the country, carried out by
the National Renewable Energy Centre, a Government funded institution in the capital, Solare.
Solar: the country enjoys very good insolation levels with 1700-2000 yearly hours of sunshine on the entire
territory. In terms of direct normal insolation (DNI), needed for concentrated solar thermal technologies,
Relandia achieves levels of 1600-1800 hours.

Wind: Wind speeds are typically 5-6m/s achieving 8m/s in coastal areas (representing 20% of the territory
with high concentration of population, since 50% of population lives by the coast). One particularly
interesting area is the large coastal plain which stretches north of the capital and which is used for grazing
animals.
Wind speeds off shore are strong – averaging 10 m/s. The sea bed shelves steeply and 2 km offshore
exceeds 50m in depth.

Hydro: The major opportunities for large scale hydro potential lie within the basin on the country’s major
river, the Runalong and has already been exploited by three major dams which provide 800MW, 720MW
and 480MW respectively. There is some potential for smaller scale hydro projects but this is not well
understood and has not been properly surveyed.
Bioenergy: the climate in New Relandia is warm and moist and crops grow well in most seasons. The land
is used to produce staple food crops and surpluses are exported . There is a large area of forest in the
north east of the country that supports three large sawmills that produce timber for building products,
some of which is transported by rail to Solare and exported. Each of the three sawmills produces around
100,000 tonnes/year of off-cuts and sawmilling residues which present a disposal problem and which are
currently burned in the open.
Geothermal: The country has no high-temperature geothermal resources. Low-temperature resources are
available.

Policy Tools Glossary
Financial Incentives
Soft loans/ one-time subsidy:
Loans or subsidy granted to RE generators, both households and commercials. The state guarantees low
interest loans or one-time cash subsidy to support initial investments and installation costs.
Tax and customs incentives
Related to production:
Rewards RE power producers with annual tax credit based on the amount of electricity generated, or
provides RE investors with the possibility to partially or fully deduct RE investments from income or other
obligations tax.
Related to consumption:
Renewable energy users and consumers are rewarded a VAT or income tax reduction in proportion to their
renewable electricity consumption.
Contractual
Power Purchase Agreement
In the case of a Public Private Partnership, the public utility grants a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) to
an Independent Power Producer (IPP) that assumes responsibility for production, operation and
maintenance when the utility would manage metering, tariff and distribution in most cases. PPAs are
tailored on a case-to-case basis and responsibilities may vary.
TPA with priority dispatching
Access to the electricity grid is granted to Third Party and electricity from renewable energy sources, in the
case of capacity shortages, will be granted priority access to the grid over conventionally generated power.
When no priority applies, the system operator is to be treated in a non-discriminating way
Quantitative
Quotas
Quotas policies are known as Renewable Energy Obligations (REOs) or Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS).
In 2010, 56 states/provinces had adopted RPS. These require utilities to meet a minimum share of
electricity sold or generation capacity installed to be provided by renewable energy sources. They can also
set obligations that a minimum of electricity purchased comes from renewable energy sources.
©OECD/IEA 2013 11
Green Certificates
Green and renewable energy certificates represent the certified generation of one unit of RE, generally one
MWh. Certificates provide a tool for trading and meeting renewable energy obligations among consumers
and/or producers, and also are a mean for voluntary green power purchases.
Tendering models
States have adopted public competitive bidding for fixed quantities of renewable power capacity, e.g.
onshore wind in Brazil or Biomass in France. Companies compete in being the lowest bidder. The state and
the company there after agree on specific financial or fiscal support and power price to make sure return
on investment are sustainable. Latvia and France allocate special tariffs through tendering procedures for
the feed-in of electricity from certain technologies.
Pricing policies
Feed-in tariffs
This tariff is a premium rate paid for each unit of electricity from a designated RE electricity generation
source fed into the grid. By early 2010 at least 50 countries and 25 states/provinces had adopted a FIT
system. Recently Uganda adopted a general FIT scheme, but some countries implement technology-
specific FITs as did China with onshore wind in 2009.
Premium
Refers to a fixed premium provided per kWh on top of market price. The premium seeks to bridge the gap
between market electricity price and generally higher cost of generating power from renewable sources.
