  1. National renewable energy policy – results and challengesEstonia 19.02.2013 Madis Laaniste, Energy Department

  2. Targets of renewable energy policy • national long-term energy strategy (Parliament 2009) • target for renewables – 25% from gross final energy consumption in 2020 • target for transport – 10% from renewables in 2020

  3. Total share of RES

  4. Total share of RES in transport

  5. The role of RE • The share of renewable energy in Total Primary Energy Supply is 15%, ca 60% of the primary energy supply comes from oil shale • Bioenergy has the biggest share in RE – ca 85%, 15% are coming from other resources (mainly wind, installed capacity ca 200 MW)

  6. Main measures to promote energy generation from RES • Premium tariff support scheme for RES-E • large biomass CHPs • co-firing of biomass in oil shale power plants • wind energy • Investment support schemes for RES-E and RES-H • for installation of wind energy capacities (22 MW); • for small CHPs (biogas, biomass) and boilerhouses using fossil fuels

  7. Issues around RE and regional development • Noticeable share of energy costs that consumers pay, go to RE producers – little acceptance to go beyond adopted RE targets • Rural regions lose their competitive advantages, partly due to higher energy costs than in urban areas • New development options can be created, if agricultural waste and residues will be taken into use in biogas production with a view to achieve the RE target in transport sector

  8. The actions by the government • Reduce energy costs through optimisation of heat supply • upgrade existing DH systems if its economically justified • solutions based on RE are preferred • improve energy efficiency, particularly in residential and public buildings

  9. The actions by the government • Setting up a programme for biogas use in transport sector • Set up biogas production infrastructure • Discussion, how to promote fleet increase: subsidy for car purchase or excise policy favouring natural gas or biogas use in transport sector • Support relevant R&D activities

  10. Thank you!
