NER300 Funding
• EU Emissions Trading Scheme
• NER - New Entrants Reserve
• 300 – 300 Million Carbon Credits
• Approx €4.5 Billion
What’s Included
“Pre-commercial demonstration of renewable technologies“
• Innovation is an eligibility criteria: projects must
be innovative in nature.
• Ranking is based on cost per unit performance
• Projects expected to produce energy by end of 2015.
What’s Included?• 8 CCS projects
• 34 RES projects, of which: • 9 Bio-energy• 5 CSP• 3 PV• 6 Wind• 4 Geothermal• 3 Ocean• 1 Hydro• 3 Distributed Renewables Management
(SmartGrids)
NER300 – OCN Category
3 Ocean (OCN) Sub Categories:
• Wave energy devices with nominal capacity 5 MW
• Marine/tidal currents energy devices with nominal capacity 5 MW
• Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) with nominal capacity 10 MW
Terminology• Reference Plant: Alternative plant on which
extra Investment and operation costs are measured.
• Relevant Costs: Extra investment costs + extra operating costs – extra operating benefits
• NER300 will finance 50% of relevant costs
• Financing under NER300 can be combined with Structural Funds, EEPR and RSFF.
• Payments. Financing to be disbursed on a yearly basis during 1st 5 years of operation by the MS, as a function of the amount of energy produced.
