1 REPUBLIC OF TUNISIA Ministry of Industry &Technology Energy Efficiency Institutional Governance in Tunisia Washington, DC 1-2 June 2010 THABET IMED

2 Presentation contents Energy context in Tunisia, State policy and public tools for EE and RE enforcements Main programs of energy efficiency Basic Policies Results on Energy Efficiency Conclusion

3 Energy context in Tunisia The stagnation of the national hydrocarbon resources, The rapid increase of energy demand, as induced by economic and social growth, Important energy invoice with impact on the budget of the State, Modest contribution of renewable energies

4 Energy context in Tunisia From positive to negative energy balance Mtoe Negative balance

5 Energy context in Tunisia Primary Energy Supply Petroleum Natural Gas ,2% 48,2% 0,6% Renewable Energies

6 Energy context in Tunisia Effects of conventional energy international prices increase A high increase of the public subsidies to energy products, since internal tariffs are administrated Around 1,1 billion US$ : around 110 US$/habitant/year It represents 10% of the total state budget and 3% of the GDP A high increase of the energy bill compared to the GDP 14% of the GDP (140 DT of energy expenditure to produce 1000 DT of GDP) against 10% in 2004 and less than 7% on Negative effects on national economic competitiveness

7 Energy context in Tunisia Effects of conventional energy international prices More political willingness to develop EE and RE An ambitious plan for (11th development public policy) Active campaign of communication and sensitization More public financial support to EE and RE Regulation reform toward more incentives and mandatory measures Energy tariffs increase More interest of private sector to invest in EE and RE projects More interest of donors to finance EE and RE projects in the country

8 Specific regulatory framework implementation level Micro policy level Macro policy level Specific institutional and organizational framework Agence Nationale pour la Maîtrise de l'énergie State policy and public tools for EE and RE enforcements General framework Energy Conservation Policy Energy tariffs Mandatory measures Incentive tools Accompanying measures Sector level measures implementation, control and monitoring

9 State policy and public tools for EE and RE enforcements Policy guidance Energy supply security Energy independency Reducing national energy bill: best energy mix, energy conservation Preserving economic competitiveness Protect low income social categories Quantitative objectives: Energy intensity decreasing Energy savings

10 State policy and public tools for EE and RE enforcements Institutional and Regulatory framework Institutional framework, established in 1986 The Taskforces (2005) Regulatory framework Energy conservation law of 1990 Amended by the new law of 2004 The law of 2005 creating the National Energy Conservation Fund The law of 2009 allowing the self generation of electricity from Renewable Energies and cogenration and the right to sell and transport electricity to the national company of electricity STEG

11 State policy and public tools for EE and RE enforcements Incentive tools Indirect incentives VAT = 0 Minimum Custom taxes Public direct incentives Investment subsidies for energy audits and EE and RE investment Subsidized Selling price of Cogeneration and RE electricity generation National Energy Conservation Fund establishment (2005) Specific financial mechanisms Public-private partnership (SWHS, Industry, EE in Building) Specific credit line from international donors (AFD, World Bank)

12 State policy and public tools for EE and RE enforcements Incentive tools National Fund for energy effiency subsidies Activities Rates Roof Energy Audit 70% DT Pilote projects 50% DT Immaterial investments 70% DT Material investments 20% DT (Consumption less than à TOE/year) DT ( Consumption between et TOE/year) DT (Consumption more than TOE/an)

13 State policy and public tools for EE and RE enforcements Incentive tools National Fund for energy effiency subsidies Activities Rates Roof Connexion to Natural Gas network (industry) 20% DT EE in fisherie sector 40% DT Engine diagnosis 20% DT Connexion to natural gas network (residentiel) Solar Heating Sytems (residentiel) Solar Heating Sytems (other sectors) 20% 140 DT (individual houses) 20 DT (logement collectif) DT (1 to 3 m² collectors) 400 DT (3 to 7 m² collectors) 30% 150 DT (each m² collectors)

14 State policy and public tools for EE and RE enforcements Mandatory measures Periodic energy audit for activities consuming more than 500 toe per year for transportation and tertiary/residential sectors and 800 toe for industrial companies Energy audit for new high energy consumer projects Minimum Energy Performance standards in buildings ( ) Labeling and Minimum Energy Performance standards for refrigerating and air conditioning appliances Yearly engine energy performance diagnosis and energy consumption control

15 State policy and public tools for EE and RE enforcements Accompanying measures Studies for good comprehension of the situation Detailed context diagnosis by sub-sector and use Strategic studies and priority definition Energy information system set up Energy accounting system Relevant energy indicators Financial energy indicators GHG emission indicators Communication and awareness campaign Sector task forces establishment to carry out door to door information Financial sector awareness Public campaigns, etc. Horizontal institutional dialogue Periodic brainstorming round table Cercle de concertation Workshops, etc. Capacity building Public sector Private sector and Consultancy services, etc.

16 Main Energy efficiency programs: Four years program ( ): Consistency : Activities that affect energy efficiency, renewable energy and alternative energy. Objectives: Reduce energy intensity by 3%per year Reaching 20% of energy savings by 2011 Cumulated energy savings of 3,2 Mtoe Total Volume of Investment: 1,1 billiondt

17 Main Energy efficiency programs: Presidential program: The total abandonment, by the end of 2014, of the marketing of lamps and electric parts not energy efficient; The construction of buildings obeying the criteria of energy efficiency by 2014; Improving energy efficiency for the indicator reaches the level of 275 koe per dinars of GDP in constant prices (currently 305 koe);

18 Main Energy efficiency programs: Presidential program: The fivefold increase of the share of renewable energies in total energy production in 2014; Installation of 535 MW of renewable energies power plants; Installation of additional m² of solar heating systems at the end of 2014; Installation of on grid PV systems in residential sector by the end of 2014.

19 Main Energy efficiency programs: Tunisian Solar Plan: ( ) A high penetration of renewable energy including solar energy in electricity production. The planned capacity in 2016 is 460 MW including 140 MW for CSP and 280 MW for wind power; Strengthening of the energy demand management, energy savings should reach 23% of primary energy demand in 2016; Interconnection with the European electricity grid to export electricity to Europe based on Article 9 of the European directive adopted on December 17, In 2016, the export capacity should reach 1000 MW including 800 MW from the gas plant and 200 MW of renewable energies; The establishment of a center of competence for promoting the growth of the solar equipment industry in Tunisia.

20 Main Energy efficiency programs: Tunisian Solar Plan: ( ) Total Cost: MD (2 000 M ) NFEC (FNME)Contribution : 260 MDT Public Sector: 800 MD, (580 MD bysteg) Privat Funds: MD International Cooperation : 40 MD: Energy Impacts: Energy savings of about 660 ktoe per year Environmental impact: tons of CO2 avoided per year
