Basierend auf dem aktuellen europäischen Energiemarktausblick von enervis können subventionierungsfreie Photovoltaik- und Windprojekte bis zum Jahr 2030 einen Marktanteil von über 25% und bis 2040 von mehr als 50% der Gesamtanlagen erreichen.

(WK-intern) – Nach Jahren sinkender Preise sind die europäischen Strommärkte wieder auf dem Vormarsch.

Sinkende Kosten für erneuerbare Energien beflügeln das Interesse an subventionierungsfreien erneuerbaren Energien, die durch langfristige Strombezugsverträge (PPA) finanziert werden.

From Niche to Standard: Potential market share of PPA-financed PV and wind projects in Europe more than 50% until 2040

Based on the current European Power Market Outlook of enervis, subsidy-free photovoltaic and wind projects can achieve a market share of over 25% in 2030 and more than 50% of total installations by 2040.

After years of plummeting prices, European power markets are on the rise again. Decreasing cost of renewables spur the interest in subsidy-free renewables financed by long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs).

Based on enervis’ central scenario of its European power market outlook, subsidy-free PV and wind will reach a share of more than 25 % in 2030 and above 50% in 2040. These projects could be financed based on PPAs. Investors need to keep in mind though, that additional renewable capacity will partially cannibalize revenues for other projects (“cannibalization effect”). Investors therefore should conduct careful market analysis.
Study author Tim Steinert from enervis explains: “Our models show that by the mid-2020s PPAs can become one of the market standards for financing new projects. Market players who gain experience in building and financing PPA backed renewable projects quickly are one step ahead in the race for market shares in a subsidy-free environment.”
