32 Energy Efficiency and Industrie 4.0 Energy management as a gateway to Industrie 4.0 Good energy data is key to identifying profitable energy savings. It also enables greater general process transparency and flexibility. These tangible benefits can pave the way to the implementation of Industrie 4.0 solutions. These solutions can unlock further (energy) efficiency potential. Picture source: Econ Solutions

33 German Energy Efficiency Incentives Gov t Support for Commercial & Industrial Energy Efficiency Grants for general EE technologies EE consulting for SMEs Grants (up to 30%) for SMEs investing in energy efficiency technologies: - cross-cutting production technologies (pumps, motors, etc.) - Energy Data Management Systems Free initial awareness-raising conversations and grants (up to 80%) for detailed energy audits identifying the potential for energy savings in a business and giving advice on taking specific actions. Consultants must be certified and registered. Energy Management Systems Grants for EE in production processes Grants for introduction of Energy Management Systems incl. relevant technology. Grants (up to 20%) for companies investing in improving the energy efficiency of their production processes.

34 Energy Efficiency Networks & Advisory Germany has a dense network of energy agencies, advisory services, information campaigns and self-organized industry networks. Energy Efficiency Networks: Industry committed to creating 500 local self-help groups by Pilot networks have significantly spurred members implementation of measures and accellerated efficiency gains. Idea expanded to SMEs with energy cost <500,000 EUR/a. Information & Advisory: National and sectoral campaigns raise awareness Energy Agencies provide energy advisory to businesses at the local or regional level Private sector consultancies offer deep, systematic analyses and implementation

35 EE as a Business Opportunity The need to improve industrial energy efficiency is expected to trigger large private-sector investments. 73% of suppliers of energy-efficient industrial equipment in Germany expect their domestic customers to increase investment in efficient technologies in the near future due to the energy transition. 1 For 35% of German industrial companies, energy efficiency already today is a stand-alone reason for investments, not just a side effect of purchasing new equipment. 2 Sources: 1 VDMA Energiewende Barometer Juliy 2014; 2 University of Stuttgart EEP Industrial Energy Efficiency Index July 2014

36 CHP Market Conditions: KWKG Until 2015: Digressive CHP bonus payments Price for Electricity Produced through CHP Units (EUR ct/kwh as from ) Up to 5.41 n.a Tariffs for CHP Approx ct/kwh* Average power price (CHP Index) In line with the changes made to the German Cogeneration Act on August 1, 2004, the normal price for power delivery payment to cogeneration plants will be calculated using the average of the baseload power prices resulting from trading at the European Energy Exchange (EEX) during the previous quarter. For Q2 2011, this index still amounted to ct/kwh. Saved grid operation costs (SAV) Saved share of grid costs represents the amount saved by the grid operators due to decentralized production. Approx ct /kwh CHP Bonus according to the CHP Act < 50 kw: 5.41 ct /kwh for 10 years or 30,000 full use hours Rates digress for share of power beyond 50kW (30,000 full use hours). Careful: partial EEG surcharge payable on self-used CHP electricity above 10,000 kwh/a! Notes: 1) As of Q ; Sources: German Ministry of Environment * This price is subject to seasonal variations. In this case, the Q and a fuel cell or a Mini-CHP-device (capacity < 50 kwel.) is used as a reference
