We see $548 billion being invested in battery capacity by 2050, two thirds of that at the grid level and one third installed behind-the-meter by households and businesses. The result will be renewables eating up more and more of the existing market for coal, gas and nuclear. Coal emerges as the biggest loser in the long run.

Photo: China News Service Renewable energy costs in Asia last year were 13% cheaper than coal and are expected to be 32% cheaper by 2030, according to a new study. This is significant because it marks a shift toward making renewables increasingly competitive with coal, a mainstay in APAC’s energy mix.

In a new study published in the journal Applied Energy , Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) researchers found that controlled charging of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) reduces the costs of integrating the vehicles into an electricity system by 54–73% depending on the scenario.

However, the resulting low gas prices, as well as clean air and climate policies, will promote further switching to gas from other more polluting energy sources, such as oil and coal. India is planning to almost double the length of its gas transmission grid, while China will grow its gas network about 60% by 2025. MMbtu in Russia, $8.7/MMbtu

However, the financial cost of the shift is causing concern. These costs are primarily borne by consumers. To date, renewables have had feed-in priority over conventionally generated power from combined cycle and coal-fired power plants. Siemens stands behind the energy transition. One possibility here is auctions.

The cost of generating power from renewable energy sources has reached parity or dropped below the cost of fossil fuels for many technologies in many parts of the world, according to a new report released by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA).
