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 report, energy, mining and minerals consultancy Wood Mackenzie projects that despite efforts to limit coal consumption and seek alternative fuel options, China’s strong appetite for thermal coal will lead to a doubling of demand by 2030. It is very unlikely that demand for thermal coal in China will peak before 2030.

The projects—led by FuelCell Energy, in partnership with VersaPower Systems, and Siemens Energy—have successfully demonstrated solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) designed for aggregation and use in coal-fueled central power generation. Cost of $700 per kilowatt (2007 dollars) for an integrated fuel cell power block.

In France, renewable energy consumption will be 20 percent by 2020. In Germany, renewable electricity generation will be 35 percent by 2020, and 50 percent by 2050. These companies have sunk costs invested in coal, gas and oil plants and are content in maximizing the return on these investments. Source: EIA.
