Abstract

This paper is a comprehensive summary of world-wide renewable auctions, based on the in-depth case studies of several EU and non-EU countries in the AURES II project. As a result of the European competition and renewable energy regulation, progress is being made towards competitive auction-based support schemes from the feed-in tariff or green certificate subsidy systems. This is also happening in the non-European countries but at a slower pace. The main aim of this report is to evaluate the core design elements, the efficiency and effectiveness of the analysed auctions, and, through comparative analysis, highlight some general trends.
