INDUSTRY I SUBSIDY

whim), with solar mainly in southern Europe and onshore wind in Northern Europe.


Although factors such as planning permission and public acceptance may reduce deployment, the ultimate cap on deployment levels would be the capture price effect – by building more wind or solar, they reduce prices and hence become uneconomic. Ultimately, the goal of wholesale grid-parity of renewables remains a long way off, and unless there is a further shift in capital or deployment costs, most large-scale renewables


deployment in the next 20 years will remain subsidised. “A system where wind and solar become competitive with wholesale market prices will mark a massive shift in the evolution of these technologies.”
