Renewable energy highlights in 2018

The year 2018 was marked, in Algeria and around the world, by several important developments both in the areas of climate change and renewable energies. This article aims to provide a retrospective of the year 2018 and reviews the most notable events.

IN THE WORLD

1/ Climate Change

- Several climate change indicators reached record levels in 2018. The years 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 are among the hottest years on record.

- Publication of the IPCC special report on the consequences of global warming of 1.5°C compared to the pre-industrial era: With the intensification of extreme events, rising sea levels, and the retreat of Arctic sea ice, among other changes, climate change is already affecting people, ecosystems, and livelihoods. If the world continues to warm at the same rate, global warming is expected to reach 1.5°C between 2030 and 2050.

- After three consecutive years of stability, carbon dioxide emissions have started to rise again since 2017 and are expected to reach 37.1 billion tonnes of CO2 by the end of the year, an increase of 2.7% compared to 2017. This rise in carbon emissions represents a negative sign for the ecological transition and the implementation of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change.

- COP24, held in Katowice, Poland, led to the adoption of the “Rulebook” of the Paris Agreement.

2/ Renewable Energies

- Renewable energy has continued its upward trend since 2009, with annual growth of 8–9%, reaching record levels towards the end of 2018. With a growth rate of 9%, installed renewable capacity reached a record 2,195 GW in 2017 and is expected to reach around 2,270 GW by the end of 2018, driven by the decline in the costs of photovoltaics and wind power, which are now increasingly competitive with fossil fuels.

- According to Bloomberg’s New Energy Outlook 2018 projections, renewables are expected to account for 64% of global electricity by 2050, with 48% of electricity generated from solar photovoltaics and wind. Costs are projected to fall significantly for both solar photovoltaics and wind power—by 40% in 2040 and by 58% in 2050 for wind energy.

IN ALGERIA

1/ Climate change

- Development of the National Climate Plan, which includes 156 adaptation and mitigation actions to address the effects of climate change.

2/ Renewable Energies

- This year was marked by the launch, by the Electricity and Gas Regulatory Commission (CREG), of a national call for tenders by auction for the construction of several photovoltaic power plants totaling a capacity of 150 MWc.

- Commissioning by Sonatrach, in association with Eni, of a 10-megawatt photovoltaic solar power plant at the Bir Rebaâ Nord (BRN) site, in the wilaya of Ouargla.

- Aware that the energy transition must begin at the level of local authorities, the Ministry of the Interior, Local Authorities and Territorial Planning (MICLA) has carried out the solarization of more than 80 schools and implemented several public lighting projects using photovoltaic and LED solar systems.

- Signature of a framework agreement between MICLA and CDER for technical support in the field of renewable energies.
