Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, University of applied sciences, Nürnberg, course: Strategic Management, language: English, abstract: There are big plans for renewables in future: Countries target to 100 % domestic energy demand to be produced by renewable energies. High investments in the branch are supposed to bring the desired targets. The world’s demand for energy is growing rapidly since intensified globalization results in global economic growth and welfare giving companies the incentive to conquer new markets. As more electricity is needed, its’ price is expected to rise worldwide that hampers economic growth. The world’s demand is calling for a global energy mix that adapts to our world’s changing economic and ecological conditions. Thus, providing and combining various independent new energy resources for sustainability with the outlook of reducing CO2 emissions in the long term and to assure and improve energy supply around the global. China is successful due to its’ competitive advantage of producing lowcost solar modules which has badly affected the EU photovoltaic market and its competing enterprises, but granted the country itself a strong position in the global photovoltaic market with their financial opportunity to expand easily. The implementation of tariff regulation and minimum prices to restrain imports for the protection of Europe’s domestic market forces China to rethink its’ strategies: China’s high government subsidies target for intensive investments in form of expansions to new territories. As subsidies may lead to overcapacities in the home country some solar companies are preparing for market entries in emerging countries eager surviving plans of PV companies in times of high competition and falling prices to increase sales volumes to prevent another insolvency in the sector. Combining South Africa’s potential and new business opportunities in highly competitive photovoltaic markets Shunfeng International Clean Energy Ltd could help to boost Wuxi Suntechs’ figures to be in black again.

Download or read book China as a Global Clean Energy Champion written by Philip Andrews-Speed and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-07 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses China’s reputation as a global clean energy champion, and applies institutional and public policy theories to explain how the country has achieved so much and why there continue to be so many unintended consequences and constraints to progress. It considers the extent to which the government has successfully boosted the manufacture and deployment of low-carbon electricity generating infrastructure, cleaned up thermal power generation, and enhanced energy efficiency, dramatically constraining China’s rising carbon dioxide emissions, but also examines the substantial political and financial capital required to reinforce the predominantly administrative policy instruments and the mix of special interests and poor coordination that are endemic to the energy sector. Arguing that the current approach seems to be encountering ever diminishing returns, the book considers whether ongoing sector reforms and the new national emissions trading scheme can reinvigorate the nation’s clean energy trajectory.

This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document from the year 2019 in the subject Energy Sciences, I. K. Gujral Punjab Technical University, course: Electrical Engineering, language: English, abstract: India’s plan to ramp up solar power generation to 100 GW by 2022 is among the largest in the world. It aims to bring sustainable, clean, climate-friendly electricity to millions of India’s people. The World Bank Group is moving to help India deliver on its unprecedented plans to scale up solar energy from installing solar panels on rooftops to setting up massive solar parks. This will catapult India to the forefront of the global effort to bring electricity to all, mitigate the effects of climate change, and set the country on a path to become the India of the future. Solar power in India is a fast-developing industry, with a cumulative installed grid connected solar power capacity of 26,025.97 MW (26 GW) as of 31st December 2019. The Indian government has significantly expanded its solar plans, targeting 100 billion US dollar of investment and 100 GW of solar capacity (including 40 GW from rooftop solar) by 2022. This book presents the status of renewable energy and solar PV technology at the beginning. A solar Photovoltaic (PV) cell converts solar radiation into electric energy with the help of a diode, two resistances and connected load. In order to harness the maximum power, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technique is used which is able to generate the power at Maximum Power point (MPP). The importance of two custom power devices namely, Distributed Static Compensator (D-STATCOM) and Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) is highlighted with its impact on Power Quality (PQ) especially considering various PQ issues. In this book, the impact of three-phase fault at unity power on the performance of solar PV grid tied system is highlighted. The PQ system performance has been evaluated under the influence of three-phase fault and waveforms are studied. The effect of fault has been discussed at Point of Common Coupling (PCC) and Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) analysis has been done using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) tool of Matlab software. Finally, the THD at the various points of PCC are calculated and discussed at fundamental frequency. Finally, the role of D-STATCOM and UPQC in improving the PQ aspects for a solar PV grid tied system at unity power factor. Sag has been reduced in the current waveforms obtained at PCC whereas the THD levels have been reduced for utility grid side (i.e. the point where the fault has been introduced).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2004 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: A-, Hawai'i Pacific University (HPU), course: MBA class, language: English, abstract: ABB Ltd. is a leader in power and automation technologies. ABB provides products and systems for industrial, commercial customers, and financial services using the most advanced technologies and applications. The ABB Group was formed in 1987 through the merger of the Swedish company Asea with the Swiss company Brown Bovery. Presently its core company is organized into 5 divisions and the following are the percentages of the 2002 gross revenues: - Automation Technology (22%) - Utilities (21%) - Industries (19%) - Power Technology (19%) - Other (19%) Percy Barnevik, who at that time was the CEO of Asea, became the CEO of this new established corporation. Back in 1996, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) recognized Barnevik as an "innovative inspirational leadership in the electro industry and his role as a chief architect of a global company that recognizes no national borders and vigilantly protects the spirit of entrepreneurship" (ABB, 1996). Through his new management style and through delegating responsibilities to its managers, ABB became a predominant player in the Industrial electrical equipment industry competing with companies such us: Emerson Electric, GE, ITT Industries and Nidec Co. with operation in around 100 countries and employing about 115,000 people.

Download or read book Green Finance and Investment Overcoming Barriers to International Investment in Clean Energy written by Oecd and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The perceived potential of clean energy to support employment in the post-crisis recovery context has led several OECD and emerging economies to design green industrial policies aimed at protecting domestic manufacturers, notably through local-content requirements (LCRs). These typically require solar or wind developers to source a specific share of jobs, components or costs locally. Such requirements have been designed or implemented in the solar- and wind-energy sectors in at least 21 countries, including 16 OECD countries and emerging economies, mostly since 2009. Empirical evidence gathered in this report shows however that LCRs have actually hindered international investment across the solar PV and wind-energy value chains, by increasing the cost of inputs for downstream activities. This report also takes stock of other measures that can restrict international investment in solar PV and wind energy, such as trade remedies and technical barriers. This report provides policy makers with evidence-based analysis to guide their decisions in designing clean-energy support policies.

This book was released on 2020-11-18 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: A+, , course: Cross-Cultural Business, language: English, abstract: The purpose of this paper is to analyze and evaluate the market entry of Tesla Inc. in Germany. In November 2019, Tesla revealed to build a European production plant on the outskirts of Berlin in Germany. The aim of this paper is to give account to the foreign market entry of Tesla Inc. in Germany. This leads to the following research question that guides this paper: What could be business success factors and threats of Tesla's strategy to enter the German automotive industry market? Tesla Inc. (former Tesla Motors Inc.) is a car manufacturer and sells fully electric vehicles, energy storage systems as well as installs, operates and maintains solar and energy storage products (Reuters, n.d.). The company was founded in 2003 by a group of engineers. In 2008 Tesla launched their first electric vehicle to the market (Tesla, n.d.). “Tesla’s mission is to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy”, so the car manufacturer. So far most of the Tesla vehicles are produced and assembled in the United States at its main Tesla Factory in Fremont, California. To that Tesla operates other, multiple production and assembly plants, named Gigafactory, such as in Fremont, California (Giga Nevada) and in Buffalo, New York (Giga New York). Recently, in 2019, Tesla opened its first Gigafactory outside the American region in Shanghai, China (Giga Shanghai). A strategic step to internationalize the company and to enter the Chinese market. This strategic action can be explained by the fact that China is the largest car market in the world and the government is speeding up the expansion of electric mobility. Furthermore, manufacturing in Shanghai saves Tesla from having to transport its vehicles overseas and avoids import duties incurred in China for cars from the United States. However, the company is not just expanding its manufacturing into China.

Download or read book Renewable Energy Medium term Market Report 2012 written by International Energy Agency and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the fastest growing sector and accounting for around a fifth of worldwide electricity production, renewable energy has emerged as a significant source in the global mix. Much of this success has stemmed from significant policy effort and economic incentives at the country level, particularly in the OECD. Massive investment has taken place on a global scale, with costs for most technologies falling steadily. As a result, renewable energy technologies are becoming more economically attractive in an increasing range of countries and circumstances, with China, India and Brazil emerging as major deployment grounds. Going forward, the continued growth of renewable energy will depend upon the evolution of policy and market frameworks. Yet, further technology development, grid and system integration issues and the availability of finance will also weigh as key variables. This new annual IEA publication, Medium-Term Renewable Energy Market Report 2012, provides a key benchmark, assessing the current state of play of renewable energy, identifying the main drivers and barriers to deployment and projecting renewable energy electricity capacity and generation through 2017. Starting with an in-depth analysis of key country-level markets, which represent 80% of renewable electricity generation today, the report examines the prospects for renewable energy finance and provides a global outlook for each renewable electricity technology. The report analyses enablers and barriers to renewable energy deployment in detail, examining larger electricity market issues that have implications for renewable development, including country-level demand projections, anticipated changes in conventional generating capacity and power system integration.
