MARKET ENVIRONMENT AND OUTLOOK

 

While the financial year 2009-10 ended with a rebound of the Solar Industry and the market, the year had started out as a challenging one for the global solar industry, given the rolling effect of the global economic meltdown, the consequent credit crunch and an unexpected cap in the incentive program by the Spanish Government. Added to this was the huge capacity build-up of photovoltaic capacities in Asia and the huge consequent demand-supply mismatch and the downturn of the previous year continued till September 2009.

 

However, after a dull first half, growth rebounded in the second half of the year with improving credit conditions and a firming up of demand. All major markets remained firm, with the strongest growth evident in Germany, Italy and Japan. Moreover new markets like USA, Czech Republic, Belgium, France and India are now emerging with attractive incentive programmes and increasing the size of the overall market pie. The December rush for installations in Germany resulted in an upward revision in the estimated annual installations for the industry at 7.2 GW for 2009 as compared to 6.3 GW in 2008 as per European Photovoltaic Industry Association. This added up to cumulative installations of 22GW worldwide till 2009 end. However, selling prices remained a challenge during the year. In view of the market expansion, on the distribution and marketing side, the Company has taken a decision to go direct to the customers in order to develop the feel of the market and to help serve customers better.

 

 

AN OVERVIEW OF THE DEVELOPMENTS

 

The India Advantage: Taking a giant leap towards sustainable and clean solar energy, the Government of India officially launched the ambitious ‘National Solar Mission’ in January 2010 — a comprehensive plan envisaging a goal of 20,000 MW of grid interactive solar power and 2,000 MW of off-grid applications in / three stage plan by 2022.

This is an unprecedented joint initiative of Ministry of Power and Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) and has attracted the attention of the PV industry worldwide. With this, India is set to emerge as a global leader in deployment and manufacturing of solar energy technologies given its favourable natural characteristics, high energy requirements and strong government support.

 

As stated in the Mission Document of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission, the mission has set up a solar energy purchase obligation for utilities that will be required to source 0.25% of their electricity requirement from solar energy sources by 2013, increasing gradually to 3% by 2022. NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam Ltd.(NVVN), a wholly owned subsidiary of India’s AAA-rated national power utility NTPC has been entrusted by the government to sign PPAs and off-take solar power from independent solar power projects up to March 2013 under Phase I. at rates fixed by Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) for a period of 25 years. This ensures high binkability of projects. CERC has fixed attractive solar feed-in tariff (FiT) at Rs 17.91/kWh leading to pre-tax returns of 19% for the first 10 years and 24% from the I 1th year onwards. This has generated huge interest from developers, installers and investors and a rush of financial closures are expected as soon as the Power Purchase Agreements are finalised by NVVN in the next few months.

 

As a result, the Company’s EPC business, including designing, engineering, procurement, installation and commissioning has received significant stimulus. The Company has successfully commissioned the ‘largest of its kind thin film project in India’ - 1MW solar project in Chandrapur, Maharashtra for the state utility ‘Mahagenco’, using its sytems design capability and the modules supplied by its affiliatePV Technologies India Limited.

 

The Company is also in the process of executing a 5MW project in Tamil Nadu with planned commissioning in the next two months. This will be the largest solar photovoltaic project in the country.

 

The Global Scenario: With improving economic environment and strong market fundamentals driven by policy developments across the globe, Market intelligence and research firms have raised their global demand estimates for 2010 and beyond. Installations are now expected to be in the range of 10-14GW in 2010. Though Germany is likely to witness cuts in FiT during 2010, a lot of action on the policy front can be seen across other countries. Thus we expect the market to continue to expand exponentially in the medium term. The FiTs for UK are effective from April 2010. Australia has set a target of 20% of its total energy generation through renewable energy sources by 2020 under renewable energy target (RET) scheme. France has established the world’s highest FiTs in January 2010, for building integrated systems in residential, healthcare and educational segments. Other markets that are expected to witness strong growth are United States and India.

 

 

The Company had announced plans to establish a new SEZ unit with additional capacity for crystalline silicon solar cells and modules. However, the continued losses and the high gearing of the Company delayed the new project. Finally, after a lot of deliberations, it was decided by the Board that the Company is not in a financial position to carry on with the new project and it has accordingly requested another affiliate to take over this project and reimburse any advances paid. The Company is thus able to exit its commitments at no loss to the Company and the dispute with the equipment vendor has also been amicably resolved.

Omax Autos introduces 200 kWp of solar photo voltaic power designed and installed by Moser Baer Photo Voltaic at their facilities in Manesar and Dharuhera, Haryana

 

May 20, 2010

New Delhi / Gurgaon : Omax Auto Limited, a major in manufacturing automotive parts, announced successful installation of 200 kWp rooftop solar photo voltaic(SPV) power generation projects, designed and developed by Moser Baer Photo Voltaic Limited (MBPV) at their Manesar and Dharuhera facilities. These highly efficient and cost effective SPV systems feed power directly to the building level grid of their facilities and importantly, they obviate the need for any battery back-up systems and the maintenance associated with them. Each of these roof top projects will result into an annual saving of more than 40,000 ltrs of diesel, leading to savings of approx 2 million Kgs of CO2 over a period of 20 years.


MBPV has provided a complete turn-key solution including Design, Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Commissioning, Grid and DG Set synchronization. Furthermore, the company will also provide Operations and Maintenance services for the project.


The unique hybrid system has been specifically customized wherein solar, DG and grid power will work synergistically. Interestingly, the system has been designed in such a manner that whenever solar power is being produced, it will automatically get first priority, thereby, maximizing the use of clean Solar Power.


Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Deepak Gupta, Secretary, Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Govt. of India said, “The commissioning of these 200 kWp rooftop SPV projects is indeed a commendable beginning to the industrial usage of rooftop solar PV solutions. I laud the Omax and Moser Baer teams on their vision and wish them success in expanding roof top SPV solutions to other locations as well. Indian solar story is gathering speed and significant projects like these will help us in achieving the targets set in the National Solar Mission.”


Mr. Jatender Mehta, Managing Director, Omax Auto Limited, said, “Omax Auto Limited has always believed in promoting clean manufacturing technology and the installation of roof top photo voltaic solar solution is a major step in utilization of clean renewable energy as a primary source of power. Moser Baer has commissioned this project in a short period of time and thanks to their experience and technical know-how, we have been able to put up a state-of-art solar photo voltaic (SPV) power generation project.”


Dr. Rajiv Arya, CEO of MBPV, said, “This state-of-the-art system showcases our unique EPC capabilities and designing strength. The highpoint of the system is that it has been designed in such a manner that solar energy produced will get first priority of consumption over power generated through DG. The SPV systems in these facilities are performing well, demonstrating an outstanding combination of high-quality manufacturing and system design engineering.”
