FBE activity fields

- Sectors : Wood for energy, other solid fuels, biogas, biofuels
- Field: Heat, electricity, gas, fuel (green manure)
- Industry, collective housing, tertiary (from upstream to downstream)

 - FBE’s objectives :
o    Unite the bioenergy actors in order to implement measures aimed at
     ensuring an optimal development of the sector and of all companies along
     the value chain
o    Remove bottlenecks in order to ensure a sustainable development of the
     sector
o    Establish links between the various lines of business among forestry,
     agriculture and energy sectors in order to develop dynamic industrial sectors
     and to promote the use of biomass for energy

                                                                               7

                                       8
•   Targets for France : 23% share of energy from renewable sources in
            gross final consumption of energy by 2020

•   23% in 2020 with 58% of biomass wich will produce :
      11% share of renewable electricity ;
      83% share of renewable heat ;
      More than 90% share of the renewables in the transport

                                                                            9
News targets for 2030 : « Projet de Loi de programmation relative
      à la Transition énergétique pour la croissance verte »
                          (source: press conference doc from june 18th)
         But currently, many discussions to validate the law and targets could change …

One of the main targets for the SER is to keep this one : for 2030, covering
  32% of total energy consumption in France with renewable energy
                                                                                     10
Actions in favor of biogas
 Since 2006 the French Government issued a series of actions aimed at supporting the
  development of biogas
 Definition of ambitious long term objectives for the sector development in 2020
    - Electricity : 625 MWe installed or 4 230 GWh (x 4/ 2009),
    - Heat generation : 555 Ktoe (x 7/ 2009)
    - No targets for gas but the SER asks for it in the discussion of the law

 Upgrading of feed-in tariffs for biogas-based electricity generation (2006 and 2011)
  Creation of a biomethane injection feed-in tariffs, with a gradual extension of eligible installations
  (from 2011) and setting-up of market mechanisms (guarantees of origin, offset mechanisms)

 Simplification of the project development permission procedures : from 2010, projects with
  input injection below 60t/day are subject to the “registration” ICPE procedure (no environmental
  survey requested) and not to a full authorization process

 EMAA Plan (2013) calling for the development of 1,000 « on farms » biogas plants in 2020.
 Announcements of Ségolène ROYAL in june 2014 : 1500 new biogas plants within 3 years.
                                                                                                     11

                                                achieve all of them and the rest of potential

A huge potential

 2020, 2030 and 2050 outlooks
 In 2020, the French market could reach according to the ADEME 12 TWh or 0.75 Mtoe out of which :

     - 5 TWh would be transformed into heat/electricity (+20%/2012)
     - 1 TWh would remain untransformed (flared gas)
     - 6 TWh would be transformed into biomethane and injected on the gas network

 In 2030 the sector could provide as much as 15% of the French gas consumption (ADEME) or 17%
  (GrDF)
 IN 2050, the sector could provide as much as 56% of the French gas consumption (ADEME) or 73%
  (GrDF)

 France has many reasons to support the take-off of biogas production and transformation.
  Biogas :
    - provides a baseload power generation which helps mitigating intermittent renewable effect on
       networks and strengthening security of supply
    - contributes to the country’s energy autonomy and to stabilizing the balance of trade
    - brings outlets and new sources of income to agriculture and to industrial sectors : valuation of
       waste (ADEME forecasts 132 million tons of eligible inputs in 2030, mainly from the agricultural
       sector), generation of fertilizers
    - develops local non transferable employment
    - contributes to the renewable energy generation targets

                                                                                                  17

Comparison between targeted (2020) and actual
  biogas-based electricty generation (GWh)

               Target 2020

                                                       The 6 TWh target for biomethane injection
                                                       in 2020 assumes that in average 30 to 35
                                                       projects with an average production

…and several improvements are requested by
                                    professionals

 The question of inputs (« intrants ») is key : existing thresholds on several types of waste create a
 competition bias with some neighbouring countries and reduce the scope of possible projects

 Need for widening the authorized inputs list and raising thresholds

 Digestates do not currently benefit from a legal normalisation and certification allowing their sale on the
 market

 Need to tackle that question in order to improve projects revenues and sustainability assuming that the
  impact of spreading on soils is carefully taken into account

 The increase of the average size of the projects linked to the emergence of injection projects, evidences the
  complexity of the development process : complexity of the ICPE process, lengthy permitting procedures (> 2
  to 3 years) whereas the project developers face an increasing need to gather local actors (farmers, industries,
  municipalities,…)

 Need for simplification measures and delays reduction
 SER supports the ongoing “unique authorization” project studied by the Government

                                                                                                           20
…and several improvements are requested by
                                     professionals

 Access to financing is difficult as raw material procurement needs to be secured over the projects lifetime
 SER works with BPI France in order to improve the financial models of biogas projects

 Feed-in tariffs are hardly sufficient to ensure project viability and bankability whereas those projects are also
 supported by ADEME direct support (« Fonds déchet » )
 Should the ADEME contribution be reduced over the next few years, an increase of feed-in tariffs should be
  considered

 Biomass call for tender (feed in premium as guidelines of the european commission ??)
 Ministry of ecology could issue a call for tender in 2015 for biomass
(units of biogaz > 1MWe and combined heat/electricity production )

 French industrial development plan for biogaz energy
 SER work for wind energy (Windustry France 2.0) and could use his competences for biogaz
 Discussions on industrial plans in the Ministry of economy and finances

 Carbon tax will affect biogas and biofuels (voted in financial bill for 2014 / Question for 2015 ?)
 SER thinks it’s a real aberration and mobilize in order to cancel that decision in the future

                                                                                                             21
