… and are significantly impacting project pricing
•          Increasing market competition, also between various technologies in the renewable energy sector
•          Fast decreasing tariffs in auctions – Solar PV is catching up
•          Current price trends in tender markets partly anticipate future technological developments and cost
           reduction effects
•          Larger projects require higher security deposits and greater need for pre-financing

          Electricity prices will increase
          •    Electricity prices will increase as nuclear power plants will go offline in Germany and France
          •    Prices of CO2 certificates will increase
          •    This will open up new business opportunities (e.g. project sold in Sweden relies solely

Market & Growth Drivers

While established markets are stagnating,
growth will be mainly driven by emerging markets
•   By 2020 more than 40 countries could
    each install >1GW of wind energy
•   Diverse development stages
    in the different markets offer
    different risk / reward profiles
•   Emerging markets will experience
    a strong increase in energy demand
    due to growing populations und
    economies
•   Ca. 7,200 GW are necessary by 2040
    to meet increasing electricity demand
    and planned power plant shutdowns
