    Orix buys IL&FS’ wind energy assets

    A year after its appointment by the government, the IL&FS board has concluded its first major sale with the transfer of the group’s 51% stake in IL&FS Wind Energy to Japan’s Orix. After the sale, Orix, which previously owned 49% in each of these seven projects, now has 100% ownership. The seven wind power plants, held through seven special purpose vehicles through IL&FS Wind Energy, are spread across 12 states with a total generation capacity of 874MW and have a combined debt of around INR 3,700 crore.

    Earlier, GAIL had emerged as the highest bidder at the end of a public process with an offer of INR 4,800 crore for 100% of enterprise value. However, Orix had expressed its intent to buy out IWEL’s 51% stake through exercising it’s right under the terms of an existing MoU enabling the Japanese company to match the price offered by the highest bidder.

    IL&FS said that “With the order of the NCLT Mumbai, Orix has transferred the money into an escrow account around INR 590 crore towards equity value and an additional INR 216 crore towards full repayment of debt advanced by IL&FS Energy Development Company to these SPVs.”

    Inox Wind issues Lockout Notice

    Wind turbine manufacturer Inox Wind has issued a notice declaring a lockout of its manufacturing facilities from October 22. The company has cited wind industry going through a very tough phase and its workers resorting to illegal sit-in strike and adopting go slow tactics as reasons for the lockout. It said “The overall wind industry in India is going through a very tough phase. India may be targeting huge addition in renewable power year-on-year, but the pace of transformation is adversely affecting the wind turbine manufacturers. Recent wind capacity auctions have seen tepid participation leading to continuous postponement of allotments.”

    Inox Wind, a part of the Inox Group, produces 2 MW wind turbines and blades from its plants in Ahmedabad and Indore.

    ADB Invests USD 98 Million in Thailand for Wind Farm Development

    The Asian Development Bank will invest 3 billion Thai baht (USD 98.7 million) in Energy Absolute’s maiden green bond issuance, proceeds from which will help support the long-term financing of the company’s 260 MW Hanuman wind farm in Thailand. The investment will contribute to Thailand’s renewable energy objectives and its ongoing efforts to reduce carbon emissions. The bond will have a total issuance of 10 billion Thai Baht. It will only be the second Climate Bonds Standard-certified bond issued by a Thai energy company and the first green bond for a wind power project in Thailand. Proceeds from green bonds are used to fund, in part or in full, new or existing projects that deliver environmental or climate-related benefits.

    The agreement was signed in Bangkok today by Deputy Director General of ADB’s Private Sector Operations Department Mr. Christopher Thieme and Energy Absolute’s Deputy Chief Executive Officer Mr Amorn Sapthaweekul. Mr Thieme said that “Thailand has ample renewable energy resources and its green and climate bond market has tremendous potential. This maiden green bond issuance by Energy Absolute will contribute to the evolution of that market, while supporting the clean energy ambitions of Thailand’s Power Development Plan by underpinning the growth of wind power generation.”

    Korea Electric Power Research Institute Develops an Offshore Wind Power Environmental Monitoring System

    New construction method that can monitor changes in surroundings of offshore wind power apartment complex in order to overcome negative perception towards renewable energy and install basic structures for offshore wind power that can weigh between 500 to 600 tons using the difference in inner and outer pressures at a 30% cheaper cost has been developed for the first time by Korea Electric Power Corporation’s Korea Electric Power Research Institute. It will be interesting to see whether this development will propel South Korea to become one of the powerhouses in the renewable energy industry.

    KEPRI has completed its R&D process on offshore wind power environmental monitoring system that can observe and send any environmental change around offshore wind power apartment complexes in real-time and applied the system to the test site located in the southern part of Yellow Sea.

    South Korea has regularized the development of eco-friendly energy through large-scale offshore wind power farms when it announced its plan to push for 2.5GW offshore wind farm in the southern part of Yellow Sea. This is a large-scale project that will require about $8.53 billion (10 trillion KRW) of investment. However, the project has not gained proper momentum due to realistic issues such as approval from local governments and opposition from residents and compensation for damage.

    KEPRI has started its R&D process for the environment monitoring system since December of 2016 and it has made results that are higher than expectations in less than three years. Considering the fact that KEPCO cannot directly participate in the project, KEPRI has performed every responsibility of a public enterprise. Also, there are now high expectations that South Korean Government’s ‘Renewable Energy 3020’ policy will gain even more momentum due to the recent development of the environment monitoring system.

    KEPRI’s monitoring system uses X-band radar, sound detector, buoy that observes meteorological changes, and unmanned vessel to observe environmental information such as wave, tidal current, weather conditions, and water quality within 4km of radius in real-time. Observations are sent to a situation room through an information management system developed by KEPRI in real-time and are provided immediately to users who need environmental information.

    Asia Poised to Become Dominant Market for Wind Energy - IRENA

    A new report by the International Renewable Energy Agency finds that Asia could grow its share of installed capacity for onshore wind from 230 GW in 2018 to over 2600 GW by 2050. By that time, the region would become a global leader in wind, accounting for more than 50 per cent of all onshore and over 60 per cent of all offshore wind capacity installed globally. According to the “Future of Wind” published at China Wind Power in Beijing, global wind power could rise ten-fold reaching over 6000 GW by 2050. By mid century, wind could cover one third of global power needs and combined with electrification deliver a quarter of the energy-related carbon emission reductions needed to meet the Paris climate targets. To reach this objective, onshore and offshore wind capacity will need to increase four-fold and ten-fold respectively every year compared to today.

    The global wind industry could become a veritable job motor, employing over 3.7 million people by 2030 and more than 6 million people by 2050, IRENA’s new report finds. These figures are respectively nearly three times higher and five times higher than the slightly over one million jobs in 2018. Sound industrial and labour policies that build upon and strengthen domestic supply chains can enable income and employment growth by leveraging existing economic activities in support of wind industry development.

    But to accelerate the growth of global wind power over the coming decades, scaling up investments will be key. On average, global annual investment in onshore wind must increase from today USD 67 billion to 211 billion in 2050. For offshore wind, global average annual investments would need to increase from USD 19 billion to 100 billion in 2050.

    Statistical highlights:

    Asia would account for more than 50% of global onshore wind power installations by 2050, followed by North America (23%) and Europe (10%). For offshore, Asia would cover more than 60% of global installations, followed by Europe (22%) and North America (16%)

    Within Asia, China would take the lead with 2525 GW of installed onshore and offshore wind capacity by 2050, followed by India (443 GW), Republic of Korea (78 GW) and South-East Asia (16 GW)

    Globally, the levelised cost of electricity (LCOE) for onshore wind will continue to fall to 2-3 cents USD/kWh by 2050 compared to 6 cents USD/kWh in 2018. Costs of offshore wind will drop significantly to 3-7 cents USD/kWh by 2050 compared to 13 cents USD/kWh in 2018

    Wind turbine size for onshore applications will increase, from an average of 2.6 megawatts (MW) in 2018 to 4-5 MW for turbines commissioned by 2025. Offshore applications will likely increase to 15-20 MW in a decade or two. Floating wind farms could cover around 5-15% of the global offshore wind installed capacity (almost 1 000 GW) by 2050.

    GWEC to Accelerate Wind Energy Growth in South East Asia

    The Global Wind Energy Council has signed a series of three MOUs with regional partners in Singapore, in order to support and accelerate the growth of wind energy in South East Asia, with a focus on Vietnam and Thailand. The agreements were signed with: Sustainable Energy Association of Singapore; Binh Thuan Wind Energy Association and Thai Wind Energy Association.

    Vietnam and Thailand are positioned to become leaders in the region’s energy transition, with enormous wind power potential. Vietnam is expected to install more than 1GW of onshore wind power capacity over the next five years, and has a promising offshore wind sector, according to GWEC Market Intelligence. Thailand with 1500MW projects in pipeline of onshore wind is championing the South East Asia market. While these markets have strong fundamentals for renewable energy, they still face challenges such as permitting, bankability of PPAs and local capacity for financing.

    Mr Liming Qiao, Asia Director of GWEC, said that “South East Asia will become a key growth region for renewable energy. Steady GDP growth, urbanisation and rising populations have fuelled the region’s electricity demand, which has increased by an average 6.1% annually since 2000. However, fossil fuels, and particularly coal-fired generation, continue to dominate the energy generation mix, with adverse socioeconomic and health impacts. It is imperative that stakeholders across South East Asia from governments to investors to communities work together to advance the deployment of clean energy. We are confident that through the new cooperation with our regional partners, we can overcome challenges such as system integration and market design, in order to promote the role of wind energy in South East Asia’s sustainable development.”

    Ms Kavita Gandhi, Executive Director of SEAS, said that “Established 13 years ago, SEAS is committed towards fostering growth in the sustainable energy ecosystem across Singapore and Asia Pacific. Through our partnership with GWEC, we hope to expand our cooperation on wind power capacity building within the South East Asia region.”

    Mercury to Complete New Zealand Largest Wind Farm

    Mercury has amended its contracts with Vestas to complete New Zealand’s largest wind farm at the Turitea site near Palmerston North. Mercury’s Chief Executive, Fraser Whineray, announced that Mercury has committed to build the remaining 27 consented turbines at Turitea, at a cost of USD 208 million, adding to the 33-turbine project announced earlier this year. This will create New Zealand’s largest wind farm at 222MW, producing 840GWh annually, enough to power 375,000 EVs.

    Mr Whineray said that “Being able to complete the Turitea wind farm at its full scale contributes further to New Zealand’s sustainable, low emissions future by making more renewable, kiwi-made electricity available for homes, businesses and vehicles throughout the country. The combination of long-term electricity demand projections, synergies from already committed transmission infrastructure, construction and operations on site, and co-benefits with the Waikato hydro system mean completion of the Turitea wind farm makes sense.

    Mr Whineray said that “We are pleased to be able to announce this closely following the passing of the Zero Carbon Bill by the New Zealand Parliament.”

    The newly enacted legislation sets up a framework by which New Zealand's policy on climate change will be developed in the effort to achieve the aims of the 2015 Paris Agreement. That includes a target to reduce emissions of all greenhouse gases (except biogenic methane) to net zero by 2050.
