Finding Renewable Energy Scenarios with the Crash-Barrier Principle: Subsequently, different factors limit technology expansion.
Phase 1: Technology cost is high and expansion requires preferential investment
Phase 2: Prices have become competitive but production capacities are limited
Phase 3: Production catches up and the market is defined by demand
Phase 4: As demand grows the availability of resources may become limiting

Renewable Electricity Potentials in TWh/year
for Iran, the CSP potentials are still rough estimates
well documented
resource taken from literature
from 5000 m temperature map considering areas with T>180°C as economic
from agricultural (bagasse) and municipal waste and renewable solid biomass potentials
from DNI and CSP site mapping taking sites with DNI > 2000 kWh/m²/yas economic
from wind speed and site mapping taking sites with a yield > 14 GWh/y and from literature (EU)
No information except for EU. General PV growth rates used for calculation
No information except for EU mid term economic potentials

Non-sustainable water includes overexploitation of groundwater resources and desalination with fossil fuels.
Sustainable water includes all natural surface and groundwater resources that are renewable and exploitable, plus increasingly re-used wastewater. A possible reduction of renewable water due to climate change is not considered.
CSP-Desalination includes seawater desalination on the basis of renewable energy, mainly CSP, in each country within the scenario CG/HE.

Non-sustainable water includes overexploitation of groundwater resources and desalination with fossil fuels.
Sustainable water includes all natural surface and groundwater resources that are renewable and exploitable, plus increasingly re-used wastewater. A possible reduction of renewable water due to climate change is not considered.
CSP-Desalination includes seawater desalination on the basis of renewable energy, mainly CSP, in each country within the scenario CG/HE.

Main Results of the MED-CSP Study
The present energy system is not sustainable and will lead to a critical situation in terms of economical, social and environmental stability.
The demand for energy will grow by three times until 2050 in EU- MENA, water demand will almost double in the MENA region
Fossil and nuclear energy sources have triggered economic development in the North Western Hemisphere, but cannot be expected to do the same for the rest of the world
A well balanced mix of renewable energy technologies is the least cost option for energy and water security in EU-MENA
The deployment of renewable energies must be accelerated by adequate policy instruments
MED-CSPMED-CSP
Policies for Sustainability in the Energy Sector
International Agreement on RES Deployment Strategy
Create Instruments adapted to each Country
Feed in Tariffs
Kyoto Instruments (CT, CDM, JI)
Subsidies (Soft Loans, Grants)
Bidding System and Quotas
Tax Credits
Grid Enhancement
Base Decisions on world market prices

Two contemporary statements from the energy establishment:
The elevation of energy costs due to the introduction of renewable energies would seriously burden our economy.
As expected, our economy can cope with the present fuel price escalation rates.
One contemporary statement from F.Trieb:
The additional cost caused by fuel price escalation since 2003, even if it would be reversed, already exceeds the total additional cost of market introduction of renewables in the next 20 years !
Thank You !
