Global Clean Energy Transition: Frontiers of New Energy Paradigm

The global energy landscape is poised for disruption across the value chain driven by decarbonization, decentralization anddigitization. Technology innovation and falling costs are creating opportunities around renewables, energy efficiency, storage,distributed energy resources (DERs), EVs and digital products/services. The industry transformation would require utilities toact fast in order to manage risks and create a number of new value streams. Policy and regulatory innovation can furtherstimulate utility investment in disruptive technologies and new business models.

Global energy transition is happening at a fast pace, with focus on renewable and electrification

The global energy mix is witnessing an unprecedented churn, driven by environmental concerns and technological improvements. Most forecasts expect renewables and gas to gain share in the energy mix at the expense of coal and, to a lesser degree, oil. Renewables are expected to be the world’s fastest-growing energy source, accounting for more than half of growth in energy supplies.

However, most scenarios expect the decarbonisation of energy mix to be gradual and not as quick as it should be from a global warming mitigation point of view. Fossil fuels are largely expected to remain dominant sources of energy for the next 20-25 years, providing 70%-80% of total energy supplies. Large spread of projections for nuclear energy reflect the current uncertainty surrounding this ‘clean’ yet seemingly unsafe source of energy

An increasing slice of the roughly $1.8 trillion of investment each year in the energy sector is being attracted to clean power generation, at a time when investment in upstream oil and gas is falling.

A large share of new electricity will be decentralized / self-generated renewables. As a consequence, utilities are predicted to lose around one quarter of their revenue.

CO2 emissions are likely to increase despite efficiency gains and clean power push, indicating the need for further policy action to meet the 2oC climate change target. The timing and form of that action will have an important bearing on the nature of the energy transition.

Oil and gas companies typically make investments on a 20 to 30-year horizon, but as the world goes headlong into an electric future, they will have to become more nimble, faster and responsive to change

Government policies are playing a central role in reshaping the electricity supply mix towards renewablesWith more than 70% of the projected US$2 trillion required in the world’s energy supply investment each year, either comes from state-directed entities or driven by revenue guarantees, having clear policy guidelines, and market design is critical. Frameworks put in place by the regulators shape the pace of energy transition and technology innovation in any country. Below is a snapshot of recent policy announcements and their likely impact on the fuel mix technology.

The mass adoption of solar, however, surprised the market – as the levelized cost

reduced, technology became increasingly cost competitive

The new energy system will be facilitated by the application of new technologies. The combination of digital, emtech and innovations is creating a unique field of play for the utilities addressing decarbonization, digitalization and decentralization. Close to US$1.2 trillion investment is expected to digitalise the grid in next 7 years, and around 70+ utility blockchain pilots are already deployed primarily around peer to peer energy trading.

New entrants are already exploiting opportunities around changing customer behavior and driving sector convergence. This necessitates energy companies to rethink their investment plans and set-up innovation hubs to accelerate the transition.

3 key facts

This transition is causing a significant disruption and is driving transformational changes for the companies

Assuming a continued massive expansion in renewable power generation, beyond power demands alone, a number of significant consequences for the power system result, in addition to the well documented challenges of intermittency:• Even in the event of a massive increase in renewables capacity, there will be times when power demand exceeds supply, so renewables need a form of firm generation

to supplement.• There will be extended periods when renewable generation exceeds demand, and without a productive load this energy will be wasted.• Significant expansion of the power transmission and distribution systems will be needed to accommodate the decentralised renewable capacity and overall increase in

peak capacity, with a risk of low utilisation.

This is the age of decarbonization, digitalization and decentralization

Spotlight: Oceania Power and Utilities sector disruptionAustralia has one of the highest penetration of rooftop solar in the world at 19%, with 2 million households having installed rooftop solar PV. High electricity prices across Australia and recent incidents of power outages is making self generation electricity prices competitive. Consumers are less reliant on the grid during the day, leveraging rooftop solar panels, however, a sudden spike for grid electricity occurs during the night. This is resulting in grid defection, and putting annual revenues of utilities is at risk.

While technology and customer trends are key drivers of change, policy and regulatory developments can accelerate or impede transformation. Governments across the globe are opening up markets to competition, driving energy reforms, and significant changes to traditional regulatory rate-setting frameworks are being made. Countries such as the Australia, Germany, UK and the US are currently engaged with all stakeholders to come up with policies conducive for investments in the emerging technology. Below is a summary of some of those regulatory initiatives and discussions across the globe.

Distributed generationRegulators are working with grid operators to ensure smooth integration of distributed energy resources.

Generous subsidies and incentives for rooftop solar have stimulated growth but are now being reconsidered.

Electric vehicles and charging pointsGrants and rebates for purchasing plug-in vehicles and charging points have been introduced.

Most governments are committed to funding the deployment and expansion of public EV charging stations

Energy storageNetwork access rules and procedures for energy storage are being developed

Governments are supporting demonstration projects and tenders for renewables with advanced storage backup systems.

Smart meters / smart gridMost countries have ambitious targets and mandates for smart meter rollouts.

Governments are supporting smart grid pilot projects through guaranteed returns on investments and tariff incentives.

Energy efficiency and demand responseEffective policies include low interest loans for improvements to homes and buildings that reduce energy consumption, rebates on energy efficient appliances

Some countries (e.g. France, Italy) have introduced obligations on energy suppliers to help customers reduce energy consumption through energy efficiency/demand response solutions.

Policy and regulatory innovation is needed to stimulate utility investment in disruptive technologies and new business models

Time is running out for current utility business modelsThe utility value chain is rapidly changing and will become more digital and

decentralised than ever

The power and utilities sector faces radical transformation. Distributed renewable generation, new digital technologies and changing consumer expectations are creating a new energy world that is more complex, competitive and challenging. And it’s coming faster than we think. Survival for utilities will depend on their ability to develop new capabilities, different business models and a mindset centred around agility and collaboration.

While the promise of an all-electric future presents new opportunities, it

poses several key challenges, particularly in relation to uncertainty in

policies, technology disruption, and evolving customer behaviour.

Investors are responding to the risk that over-investment could lead to

heavy losses if utilization falls short of expectations – or if the market

changes direction, leaving investments stranded. Those players who

take steps to mitigate the risks and test the value hypothesis of new

business models, will gain a competitive edge
