Trends and drivers of Energy demand

Decentral non-predictable production will play an increasing role in meeting growing energy demand

> Today's electricity demand still under pre-crisis level

> Demand will increase up to 100 TWh in 2020 and 125 TWh in 2050

90 85> Nuclear energy

covering 50% of electricity demand

> Decrease of relative importance from 96% to 75% in 2050

5> Local production

mainly via PV cells, wind and CHP

> Growing importance of local, non-predict-able production to meet future demand

> Negative effect of improved electrical performance of appliances

> Increased share of con-sumption by services in line with evolution towards a more service based economy

> Decreasing consumption by industry sector as the economy evolves towards less energy-intensive activities

Low- & Medium-

Increase in electricity demand will largely be covered by development of low- and medium-voltage production facilities

> Growth in production largely driven by generation connected to distribution network

> Strong increase of wind, CHP and

> Strong increase of wind, CHP and biomass, less growth of PV cells (in terms of produced energy)

2010

HIGH-VOLTAGE PRODUCTION

> Historical dominance of nuclear power generation

> Installation of CCGTs and CHP (gas turbines and biomass) compensa-ting for future closure of nuclear plants

Electricity demand will continue to grow, although less fast than GDP, due to mitigating factors as RUE and des-industrialization

Transmission and distribution network operators are impacted by 3 major evolutions that shape the future energy context

1SMART GRIDS & SMART METERING

> Intelligent grids seen as indispensable in the EU objectives 20/20/20

> Mix of central and decentral production with bidirectional fluxes where consumers are producers at the same time

> Smart meter as a key tool to optimize and reduce energy consumption

> Window of opportunity to launch new services to end-clients

PRODUCTION UNCERTAINTY

NEWTECHNOLOGIES

> Production fluctuations on 2 levels:

– Cyclical (predictable): Daily & seasonal fluctuations

– Erratic (non-predictable): Climatic and consumer-driven fluctuations

> Increased need for interregional/international network solutions and storage

> Development of RES strongly increasing production uncertainty, with strong impact on the entire network

> Accelerating pace of evolution of emerging technologies for network management and RES

> Required investments to implement innovations exponentially increasing

> New technologies impacting all facets of energy market:

– Structure of distribution/transportation

– Asset management

– Operational performance
