IKEA, the world's largest furniture retailer from Sweden, has set a goal to derive all of its energy from renewable sources, and it is now installing 39,000 solar panels on the rooftops of its stores in the United Kingdom to help achieve that goal.
It also purchased a 12.3-MW (12,300-kW) wind farm in Huntly (in northeast Scotland) from Good Energies Capital Inc, according to the chief sustainability officer, Steve Howard. He said that is enough to cover 30 percent of IKEA's UK electricity consumption.
The 12.3-MW farm is only one of the wind farms owned by IKEA, which also has wind farms in Denmark, Germany, France, and elsewhere in the UK. Howard said that the benefit of generating a significant percentage of its own energy from solar and wind sources is that it helps to protect the company from energy price spikes that cost IKEA a whopping 1.2 billion euros ($1.7 billion USD) per year.
Solar and wind powered generators do not require fuel (beyond wind and sunshine), so the cost to generate electricity from these generators does not spike at all.
IKEA essentially paid for its electricity in advance by purchasing solar panels so the cost to it is the same for decades (and also keep in mind that the cost of electricity from fossil fueled sources is continually increasing). Wind farms do require routine maintenance, but most of the cost of wind power is the initial cost of the turbines.
Howard said that the solar panels will cost approximately 4 billion euros or $6.5 billion USD to fit and they are manufactured by GS Solar Fujian Co. of China.
IKEA currently owns 67 wind turbines with an electricity generation capacity of 127 MW.
"The wind turbines in the UK are a first step, and we'll expand on that," he said. "This is a message to developers out there that we're looking for good projects in the right places, and we're keen to diversify in terms of the regions."
"The direction of travel for us is 100 percent renewable. We're likely to hit 70 to 80 percent by 2015. We've built up sufficient experience in the area to be more confident in the timeline, so we will set a timeline in the next few months."
A deadline has not been set, but IKEA appears to be fast-approaching its goal and is a clear world leader.

Idaho Power plans to build solar power plant
Idaho Power Co. plans to build a pilot solar panel plant so it can gain expertise in a field that could one day become a significant part of its power generating operations, an official says.
Idaho Power wants to build a one-half to 1-megawatt plant using solar panels in southwest Idaho, said Mike Stokes, the company's power supply planning manager. Estimated cost is $2 million to $4 million.
"There is a kind of research and development component to this," Stokes told the Idaho Statesman (http://bit.ly/rgUUwz). "It's not just as simple as throwing some solar panels out there and you are done."
The state's biggest utility plans to ask for bids later this year but hasn't decided whether to put the solar panels on the ground or rooftops. Idaho Power has 492,000 residential, business and agricultural customers.
Stokes said solar power could be a good supplement to the company because it peaks in the summer when farmers are running irrigation pumps and other customers are using air conditioners.
"The shape of solar's load has a lot more value to us," he said.
The company currently generates power mostly through hydroelectric projects and coal plants.
Recently, the company included solar options in its integrated resource management plan it presented to the Idaho Public Utilities Commission.
"I think if they built a plant and it's on their system, they will be more comfortable about solar," said Ken Miller, an energy analyst with the Snake River Alliance and a member of Idaho Power's planning committee. "It will become less mysterious."
The company has also approved a contract to buy solar power from Boise-based Interconnect Solar, which plans to build a solar power plant near Murphy in southwest Idaho.
Stokes said there are various options for the plant Idaho Power wants to build.
"One option would be for Idaho Power to pay someone to use their roof, and Idaho Power would own the system," he said.
Stokes said building the plant should help the company learn what solar technologies work best and which ones work best with its power grid.

Solar wind alternative power functioning in historic Bishop Hill
Green Winds, a local company offering SWAP (solar wind alternative power) has a functioning solar-power system in place at a business in this historic Henry County community. Gary Lay of Galesburg, owner of Green Winds, has plans to also install a wind turbine at The Summer Cottage, the business owned by his mother, Arlene Rigg.
The Summer Cottage sells hand-blown glass items for indoor and outdoor use. Rigg also shows off the SWAP system and lets customers look at brochures telling about the alternative energy project.
Rigg, who has a fused spine, does not divulge her age, even to her children, but the senior citizen may have more energy than even her son’s SWAP system produces. A couple of years ago, she lost a freezer full of handpicked fruit when the power went out.
“I didn’t know it,” she said of the power outage.
Lay has the solar portion of the system up and running. There is a battery back-up and a wind turbine is in the works.
He opened a door similar to those housing circuit breakers and showed the brains of the computer system that keeps the solar power running correctly.
“This is the electricity for the system,” he said. “It actually has a computer chip in it that controls the system.”
The system is fully automated, with the exception of a dimmer switch that Rigg can use to turn on and off a waterfall in back, as well as regulate the water flow.
“This thing never allows it to go over 14 volts for charging,” Lay said. “It never allows it to go below 11.5 volts.”
The digital read-out was 13.7 as Lay was displaying the brains of the system.
The battery could be damaged if it is charged too much, the energy consultant explained. Eventually the plan is to use gel cells, but Lay currently uses a lead acid truck battery. The battery is in a compartment outside the store. He said the battery gives off hydrogen as it charges, which is why it can’t be inside. He plans to one day use solar and wind power for his mother’s house and store, through the use of 16 gel cells.
There is a wooden structure that holds two solar cells, one a commercial product, one that Lay made from scratch using glass from Knox Glass in Galesburg. The individual cells come from Germany. The 13 acres Rigg’s house and store sit on are a peaceful combination of prairie grasses, gardens, large shade trees, pine trees just beginning to grow, as well as a large open area. The waterfall is surrounded by a large stone structure made out of fossilized stones.
Lay had a brother who passed away at a young age due to MS.
“So all of this is a monument to him,” he said. “It’s kind of a sanctuary for people and animals.”
The soothing sound of the waterfall amidst all the nature makes for a peaceful place.
Plans are to extend one leg of the small pond and build a stream. Powering the waterfall with alternative energy was Rigg’s idea. Lay said his mother called one day and talked about building the waterfall.
“She said ‘why don’t you power the waterfall with your system?’ So it doesn’t cost as much for electricity,” he said. “It’s just the start of the system. I’m going to increase the solar and put up the wind system.”
Lay needs to find a spot for the 30-foot-tall wind turbine. He said the turbine has to stand at least that tall to be above the tree line.
“Where would that be, Mom?” he asked.
“On the hill, out on the prairie,” she answered without hesitating.

Solar industry still hopes to shine
New Jersey has been proud of its commitment to renewable energy, and legislative policies have encouraged the installation of photo-voltaic solar arrays to the point that the state is second only to California in solar power production, according to the Board of Public Utilities.
But in June, Gov. Chris Christie’s administration announced that it was withdrawing New Jersey from a 10-state regional energy plan, the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative.
This was followed a few days later with the introduction of the proposed new Energy Management Plan, a blueprint for energy planning for the next decade. In the plan, the governor and his administration recommend the construction of gas-powered energy plants, and putting more emphasis on large solar arrays owned by power companies rather than arrays on private homes. Questions arose about whether these policies will weaken New Jersey’s solar industry.
As hearings continue on the Energy Management Plan this week, several executives in the solar industry have shared their perspectives on how they read the plan, how solar energy has worked in the state so far, and how their industry can remain robust.
Emphasis on arrays
In New Jersey, solar energy has been made affordable through ratepayer subsidies.
Here is how the system works: The state Legislature has mandated that each year the utility companies must produce an increasing number of megawatts of power through renewable means. If they are not producing that power themselves, the companies must go to sources that produce power through renewable energy and buy power from them. They do this in the form of Solar Renewable Energy Credits or SRECs.
Homeowners and commercial property owners are now producing electricity with their photo-voltaic arrays, and they earn an SREC for each megawatt hour they produce. They can sell the SRECs to the power companies on the spot market, which is regulated by the Board of Public Utilities, or they can sign a long-term contract to sell a power company their SRECs at a fixed price for a fixed number of years.

Solar outlook expected to brighten
Solar investors should brace themselves for some downright dreadful second-quarter earnings reports in the coming weeks, though the rest of the year may provide some relief to battered solar stocks as panel prices stabilize and profit margins recover.
The solar market likely bottomed in the second quarter after pullbacks in subsidies in No. 2 solar market Italy stalled development of projects there this spring, creating an oversupply of solar panels in the market and sparking a more than 20-per-cent drop in prices.
“It’s going to be probably the most challenging quarter we’ve seen in the space since the financial crisis,” Kaufman Bros analyst Jeff Bencik said. “Volumes are starting to pick back up, but we have pricing declines of 25 to 30 per cent across the supply chain.”
Solar power relies on government subsidies to compete with electricity generated by fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas. In general, drops in the price of solar power are a good thing for the subsidy-dependent industry — but manufacturers struggle if they can’t cut costs at a similar rate.
Solar modules cost about $1.80 per watt in the first quarter, and are now selling for $1.40 per watt or less.
That drop has taken a big toll on manufacturers’ profit margins and sent their stocks into a tailspin. Gross margins for photovoltaic module manufacturers have fallen by 25 per cent in the last six months, according to research firm IMS Research.
The solar earnings season will kick off in earnest with First Solar Inc.’s results on Aug. 2, followed by reports from U.S. wafer maker MEMC Electronic Materials Inc. and U.S. solar manufacturing equipment maker GT Solar a day later.
Many German solar companies, including SolarWorld, Centrotherm, Phoenix Solar and SMA Solar, are scheduled to release results the week of Aug. 8.
But some big solar players — including U.S.-based SunPower Corp and China’s Renesola Ltd — have already warned of weak results in the second quarter.
Germany’s Q-Cells SE, which will report results Aug. 12, has also said that demand remained weak during the second three months of the year, while Norway’s Renewable Energy Corp. last week was hit by a $1.16-billion impairment, due to under-used factories.
The industry turmoil has also weighed on share prices. The MAC Solar Energy index is down 27 per cent since the beginning of the second quarter.
Many expect solar companies’ fortunes to improve in the second half of the year as lower prices on panels unleash a new wave of demand.
Solar inverter maker Power-One, for instance, said Thursday that its sales in the third quarter would benefit from increased sales to rising markets in North America and Asia as well as an improved market in Germany.
SunPower’s announcement this week also indicated that demand was strong, as the company said its revenue would be at the high end of a previously forecasted range, despite contracting margins.
Increased demand should help stem the rapid drop in prices that has crippled the industry in recent months.
“A lot of companies are seeing volume increases, which is the good news,” said Jon Sigurdsen, fund manager at DNB NOR unit Carlson in Oslo. “Very recently a lot of companies have said prices are stabilizing.”
Overall, outlooks for the rest of the year should be positive, analysts said, but warned about another round of subsidy cuts in 2012.
“The next cut in feed-in tariffs in January 2012 is just around the corner,” said Michael Tappeiner, an analyst at Unicredit in Munich.
“It’ll remain very tight for the sector overall.”
The question is whether investors will dive into the beaten down sector and pick up solar stocks at bargain prices now that the worst of 2011 is over.
“Do investors play that rally again as they have in the last few years, knowing that it’s a little flash in the pan? Or do they say, ‘You know what? It’s a waste of my time,’ ” Baird analyst Michael Horwitz said, adding that he expects to see some German and minor Chinese solar players go out of business next year.
