The shares of natural gas and renewables in the primary fuel mix increases most – driven by rising power-generation demand

Cumulative investment = $3.5 trillion Electricity dominates energy investment – even more so if investments in fossil fuels chains to supply power plants are included

Profit margins have fallen sharply in recent years
Electricity Investment Uncertainties and Challenges z Investment needs will increase over next 3 decades
Demand growth of 1.6% Many old plants – including most nuclear reactors – will be retired Shift to higher unit cost renewables Tightening reserve margins
z Gas prices and capital costs of coal stations & renewables are key drivers of future investment in generation z Wind power will be primary renewable source – calling for investment in voltage regulation & network reinforcement z New capacity investment may be delayed as investors wait to see what environmental policies – including possible climate action – are enacted z Higher investment costs for new capacity may delay decommissioning of old plants and raise emissions
Energy Challenges Facing North America z $3.5 trillion of energy investment needed in OECD North America through 2030 – more than half in or for the electricity sector z Prices will need to be high enough to support capital flows z Decline rates & drilling costs very uncertain for oil & gas z Liberalisation not expected to undermine investment, but some concerns about reliability & peak electricity capacity z Changing environmental policies are a risk to investors and a source of uncertainty for future investment New measures to boost renewables and save energy New coal-fired plants discouraged by threat of new measures
Broader Policy Implications: “Wake-Up Call” for Governments z Increasing emphasis on creating right enabling conditions – and lowering barriers to investment z Less direct intervention as lender or owner z Governments should monitor and assess the need to adjust regulatory reforms in network industries z Policymakers need to ensure basic principles of good governance are applied and respected – including cost-reflective pricing z Fiscal and regulatory incentives to develop advanced technologies – carbon sequestration, hydrogen, fuel cells, advanced nuclear reactors, etc. – could speed their deployment and dramatically alter energy investment patterns and requirements to 2030
