11 1. Objective of this study Article 19 of the EPBD states that the Directive shall be evaluated by 1 January 2017 at the latest, "in the light of the experience gained and progress made during its application." The European Commission tendered the evaluation of the application of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and assessment of policy options and resulting impact in the framework of the EPBD review (ENER/C3/ /FV under the Multiple Framework Service Contract MOVE/ENER/SRD.1/ Lot 3). The project was executed by a consortium of Ecofys (project lead) Tractebel (framework manager) and Sweco. The present report informs about the assumptions and results of modelling activities related to the assessment of policy options that were performed with and derived from the BEAM² model. Please note that additional modelling and calculations were performed outside of the abovementioned contract, without use of the BEAM² model. The latter are therefore not part of the report. 11

12 2. General description of BEAM² model BEAM² is a bottom-up balancing model based on building physics that applies policy options and measures to a building stock inventory described in a disaggregated manner. The following summarises the key elements of the model: inputs (Section 2.1), processing (Section 2.2) and outputs (Section 2.3). A more thorough description of the model can be found "Integrated Assessment for Building Stocks A Technical, Economical and Ecological Analysis", Kjell Bettgenhäuser, 2013, ISBN Model inputs For the purpose of the Impact Assessment, the building stock was disaggregated following: 5 reference zones and climates (Section3.1.1), 9 building types (Section 3.1.2), 5 age groups (Section 3.1.3), 2 sub-groups of retrofit level (Section 3.1.4). The following inputs were established for each segment of the above described building stock disaggregation: floor areas (Section 3.2.1), thermal characteristics of: o the building envelope for walls, windows, floor and roof (Section 3.2.2), o space and water heating systems (Section 3.2.3), o space cooling (Section 3.2.4), o ventilation (Section 3.2.5), Additional inputs were defined for each of the 5 reference zones: For calibration purposes, energy consumptions for space heating and cooling per reference zone (Section 3.3.1), For the calculation of investments, capital expenditures, specific investment cost per reference zone for new buildings and retrofit of existing buildings (Section 3.3.2), For the calculation of energy expenditures, energy price per kwh (Section 3.3.3), For the conversion into primary energy, primary energy factors per energy carrier (Section 3.3.4), For the calculation of greenhouse gas emissions, CO 2 -emission factors per energy carrier (Section 3.3.5). In addition, specific scenario parameters were established to describe the impact of the different policy options (Section 3.4). These parameters are not the result of the economical optimization process; instead, they are used as an additional input to the model. They are based on Ecofys's expert assessment, crosschecked with available literature and calibrated with available top-down statistical data. 12

13 Three key concepts are used to define the scenarios: The full thermal renovation rate, which reflects the amount of buildings that undergo a renovation and upgrade of the total building envelope (roof, external walls, windows and ground floor). It is developed as an equivalent rate of renovations that include all or only parts of these different components. The full thermal renovation rate is therefore an indicator that describes the number and scope of renovations of the building envelope, while not describing the ambition level (e.g. thickness of insulation) of the single measures. The technical building system exchange rate, The minimum requirements in application for new and existing buildings. 2.2 Model processing Based on the above detailed floor area inventory, differentiated by reference zone, building type, age group and retrofit level, for which space floor area and thermal characteristics are defined, the useful heating and cooling energy need is calculated following the calculation procedures of EN ISO Taking the parameters of the HVAC systems into account the final energy used by the building systems to cover the above useful energy need is calculated and calibrated with the available top-down statistical data. Apart from heating, hot water and cooling as well as the auxiliary energy for ventilation, heat recovery for heating and cooling systems (and lighting for nonresidential buildings) is addressed. Based on the final energy use, the primary energy and greenhouse gas emissions for all energy carriers are calculated by applying primary energy and greenhouse gas emission factors. The contribution of electricity generated from on-site photovoltaic system is determined and the net primary energy need calculated. The calculation process over the scenario time frame is organized as follows: Based on the initial floor area distribution along the different segments of the disaggregated building stock, the building stock which will be transformed in the future is projected. New buildings, demolition and retrofit programs for all or parts of these combinations are taken into account. All construction/renovation activities considered in year i have an effect starting in year i+1. Based on this, the energy costs per year and the investment costs for new buildings and retrofitted buildings are calculated. 13

14 2.3 Model outputs Based on the above processing, Annex I provides the following outputs at EU-28 level for the different scenarios: Floor Area (per building type), Final energy demand for heating (TWh/a) (per heating technology), Shares of on-site renewable energy source (TWh/a) (Wood, heat pumps, photovoltaic power generation and solar thermal energy), Primary energy demand (TWh/a) (space heating, domestic hot water, space cooling, auxiliary, lighting (non-residential), CO 2 -emissions (Mt/a) (space heating, hot water, cooling, auxiliary, lighting (non-residential), Total investments / capital expenditures (billion /a) (Building envelope and HVAC systems), Total energy expenditures (billion /a)) (space heating, hot water, cooling, auxiliary, lighting (non-residential). Key conclusions are given in Section 4. 14

15 3. Model inputs 3.1 Building stock disaggregation Reference zones and climates The building stock is divided into five climate zones for Europe. The countries within the respective reference zones 1 are shown in Figure 1. Figure 1: Considered reference zones for Europe (Source: [ECOFYS, 2012]) 1 All countries are assigned to one of the reference zones concerning the criteria of (i) climate conditions, (ii) building stock characteristics and (iii) cost structures and level of investment costs/energy costs. 15

16 Figure 2 shows the reference climate conditions in terms of weighted average ambient temperatures of the reference zones. Figure 2 Average ambient temperatures of the reference zones per month (Source: [Meteotest, 2012]) Reference Buildings The model requires the definition of reference buildings as representative average building types for all buildings in stock. Reference buildings are typical representatives with regard to the geometry of a building. The distribution in size of the reference buildings for the five reference zones is presented in Section Residential Reference buildings from [inspire, 2014] are used, which are: Single Family House (SFH) Small Multi Family House (SMFH) Large Multi Family House (LMFH) 16

18 Non-residential The reference buildings for non-residential buildings are defined along the Annex I.5 of the EPBD 2. The geometries are based on data from European Copper Institute (ECI) for the study Panorama of the European non-residential construction sector (2011): Office Building (OFB) Trade and Retail Building (TRB) Education Building (EDB) Touristic Buildings (TOB) Health Buildings (HEB) Other non-residential buildings (ONB) The parameters and geometries for the chosen reference buildings are shown in Table 4, Table 5, Table 6, Table 7, Table 8 and Table 9.

The chosen age groups are: Pre From 2014 The distribution in size of the age groups for the five reference zones is presented in Section Retrofit Levels The stock is further disaggregated into two sub-groups, considering the thermal characteristics: "Renovated", "Not-renovated". This disaggregation enables the establishment of two levels of thermal characteristics for the considered segment. Already renovated buildings are not excluded from renovation by the model, but the not renovated buildings undergo renovation first. In the scenario calculation for both, residential and non-residential buildings and for each reference zone, one retrofit level (major renovation) will be used. The fact that not every renovation is a major renovation will be considered in the full thermal retrofit rates assumed for each specific scenario (Section 3.4). The thermal qualities assumed for residential and non-residential buildings of the "renovated" and "not renovated" cases are defined in Section

Figure 15 and Figure 16). The implementation of the heating system distribution will be performed according to the square meter distribution across the different reference building types and ages. 29

CHP-systems are included in the district heat share (regional/local/small scale heating networks). The shares of micro-chp are negligible until today, only Germany is the only country in Europe with a very little share (a few 1,000 to 10,000 sales per year since approx. year 2000), see e.g. JRC (2012) "Background Report on Implementing the Cogeneration Directive, Delta EE (2013) "Seven things you need to know about Micro-CHP in Europe" or CODE2 Cogeneration Observatory and Dissemination Europe: Micro-CHP potential analysis European level report (December 2014).

For new systems or during an exchange, an average improvement of 40%, is leading to a SER of Ventilation In the residential sector we assume that 3% of the heating systems are equipped with ventilation system whereas the share in the non-residential sector is 45% Lighting (non-residential) According to the study Cost of Non-World, lighting in non-residential buildings is assumed to be around 286 TWh in 2013 for EU Solar PV In the BEAM² model, the PV power generation is not directly considered in the energy balance, but it is indirectly included by the CO 2 -emission factor for electricity Based on [inspire, 2014].

Auf dem Weg zum Niedrigstenergiehaus im Gebäudebestand. 12 Therefore, investment costs are based on German average and are scaled to member states and to the five reference zones respectively (Northern, Western, North-Eastern, South-Eastern and South) by using BKI cost factors All on-site RES are accounted in the BEAM 2 model so far except PV. Additionally, investment costs for cooling are based on [ECOFYS, 2011a] The following abbreviations are used for the heating system mix: c=condensing, nc=non-condensing, el=electricity, HP=heat pump, DH=district heat. 37

66 In Section the key scenario parameters are defined for the three scenarios, noting that construction and demolition rate are kept identical in all scenarios: Scenario 1: Reference, Scenario 2: Further guidance without amendment to the EPBD, Scenario 3: Comprehensive set of targeted amendments. In Section these key scenario parameters are defined in more specific terms General presentation of the key assumptions Scenario 1: Reference The reference scenario considers that no measure is taken on the EPBD beyond existing ones. It implies continued implementation and related regulatory and non-regulatory instruments, for instance: the requirement for all new buildings to be built as nearly zero energy buildings as from 2021 on and the update cycles of the assessments of MSs on cost optimal building performance requirements, the adoption of a common EU voluntary certification scheme (Article 11(9) of the EPBD) that provide market participants in the non-residential sector with a tool for the reliable comparison of buildings energy use across borders. This approach could be supported by measures to maximize the impact of the EPBD. Sharing of good practices, stimulated by exchange platforms (e.g. Concerted Action), could help in improving compliance. It is assumed that under the no-change option, this work would continue and that a better implementation and enforcement of the current EPBD lead to an increase in the renovation rate (increase by 55% in the time frame ) and of the HVAC system exchange rate (developing from an average lifetime of 28 to an average lifetime of 24 years until 2030). The EPBD is co-delivering in synergy with other energy efficiency legislation (EED, Ecodesign, Energy Labelling) and Financial Support under the European Structural and Investment fund and financial support measures. As a consequence, the reference scenario for modelling policy options must assume a set of boundary conditions for the policy environment. At least the three following approaches were possible: 1. Assuming the application of existing pieces of legislation as they are today, meaning with closing dates where they exist, without renewed effort after 2020, 2. Assuming a continuation of the current level of effort post 2020, 3. Assuming an increased level of effort post 2020 according to the most intensive policy options explored in preparation of the energy efficiency package. Although the first approach corresponds to the current legal situation, it would bias the results upwards by considering that, after 2020, the EPBD stands alone and supports all required efforts. The third approach would be going too far in the opposite direction. 66

67 As a consequence, the second approach was chosen as a conservative assumption, presenting the role of the EPBD in the context of the legislative and financial framework of the package as a whole. The reference scenario that underpins the calculation of impacts considers a continuation of the current level of efforts in areas that are outside of the scope of the EPBD but acting in synergy with it, as follows: The proposed revision of the Energy labelling directive, the implementation of the measures already identified under past Ecodesign working plans and any new product groups identified in the Ecodesign working plan , The continuation of the energy efficiency obligation scheme as it is, post 2020 (EED, Art.7), The continuation of current level of support to improve the energy performance of buildings from European Structural and Investment Funds, post 2020, The continuation of the efforts currently funded from the Horizon 2020 research and innovation budget post 2020 and in particular the continuation of the project development assistance currently funded from that budget post We set the following parameter for the Baseline scenario: Thermal qualities: o New buildings: : Cost optimal U-values according to MS reports; : Introduction of NZEBs (approx % improvement); : 7.5% improvement due to new cost optimality values; o Existing buildings: : Cost optimal U-values from MS reports; : 5 % improvement 23 compared to ; : 5 % improvement 23 compared to ; Retrofit rates (equivalent full thermal renovation rate 24 ): Residential ( ): %; Non-residential ( ): %; Heating systems 26 : o Exchange rates ( ): %. Scenario 2: Further guidance without amendment to the EPBD This option considers the set of proposals that enhance the implementation of the existing regulatory framework without amending the Directive. It builds on the work being done at EU, national and regional levels to actively implement the Directive. Compared with the first scenario, it goes one step further in proposing Following the update of cost optimality calculations, average improvement The full thermal renovation rate reflects the amount of buildings that undergo a renovation and upgrade of the total building envelope (roof, external walls, windows and ground floor) developed as an equivalent rate of renovations that include all or only parts of these different components. The full thermal renovation rate is therefore an indicator that describes the number and scope of renovations of the building envelope, while not describing the ambition level (e.g. thickness of insulation) of the single measures.

68 soft law and guidance that could improve the implementation and enforcement of the legislation and the use of voluntary measures which have not yet been explored by Member States, for instance: Guidance for clarifying the calculation of the energy performance of buildings, for example, to ensure that the potential for the integration of renewable energy sources and the highly efficient systems are considered; Guidance the implementation of the cost-optimal levels of minimum requirements proposes an answer to address implementation problems of the current legislation. We set the following parameter for scenario 2: Thermal qualities: o New buildings: : Cost optimal U-values according to MS reports; : introduction of NZEBs (approx % improvement); : 7.5% improvement due to new cost optimality values; o Existing buildings: : Cost optimal U-values from MS reports; : 5 % improvement 23 compared to ; : 5 % improvement 23 compared to ; Retrofit rates (equivalent full thermal renovation rate 24 ): o Residential ( ): %; o Non-residential ( ): %; Heating systems 26 : o Exchange rates ( ): %. Scenario 3: Comprehensive set of targeted amendments. Scenario 3 considers targeted amendments of the current EPBD, in line with the intervention logic of the current EPBD: Sending clear signal to the market as regards the existing buildings by setting placing the long term renovation strategy within the ambition for the building sector to be decarbonised by 2050, with milestones in 2030, Developing a framework to support the flowing of financial resources into the buildings sector, in particular for building renovation, Improving the effectiveness of EPCs with measures that strengthen, modernise and further integrate the EPCs within a more global framework, Improving the efficiency of the EPBD with measures that lift the provisions related to regular inspection and repeal of the provisions related to mandatory documented feasibility study for efficient systems, Implementing continuous electronic commissioning for technical building system. These effects are combined in the scenario modelling into an increase in the renovation rate (increase by 160% in the time frame ) and of the HVAC system exchange rate (developing from an average lifetime of to an average lifetime of 22 years until 2030) Own assumption, based on market data The BEAM2 model includes all on-site renewables that contribute to heating and/or cooling. PV is not included at this step. 68

72 New construction, demolition and retrofit rates This chapter shows the different developments for new construction, demolition and retrofit rates 30 from 2015 to Residential The new construction rate prognosis in the GLOBUS model is based on prediction of the gross domestic product and on the population. The new construction rates from are shown in the following figure. Figure 23: New construction rates per reference zone, residential, all scenarios, (Source: [Schimschar, 2015]) The renovation rate includes all buildings with a (partial) renovation. The equivalent renovation rate is the product of the renovation rate and the depth of renovation. The reason for a decline in new construction rate in North-Eastern Europe is a corresponding decline in the population forecast. 72

76 The replacement of heating systems in existing buildings and heating systems in new buildings is based on the following forecast on system sales (residential and non-residential buildings) until 2030, see following graphs. 100% Heating system installations in new buildings (Western zone, Option 0) 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Gas,c Gas,nc Oil,c Oil,nc DH Wood Coal EL-direct HP,ground HP,air Figure 28: Heating system sales prediction for new buildings per year per system, (Source: own assumptions based on information from EHI, [Delta-EE, 2015]) Heating system installations in existing buildings (Western zone, Option 0) 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Gas,c Gas,nc Oil,c Oil,nc DH Wood Coal EL-direct HP,ground HP,air Figure 29: Heating system sales prediction for existing buildings per year per system, (Source: own assumptions based on information from EHI, [Delta-EE, 2015]) 76

77 The trend starts with the known distribution (2015) amongst the heating system types. Heat pumps, district heat and wood boiler are assumed to increase in the sales shares until Following the Ecodesign regulation, Oil non-condensing boiler will not be sold from 2016 onwards whereas gas non-condensing boiler in the retrofit case may still be installed if they are connected to a shared open-flue system. Therefore a first significant change in the development can be expected in 2016 followed by a second change from 2021 onwards. This shift results from the nzeb introduction increasing the share of renewable energy systems in new buildings. The change of domestic hot water systems is considered by increase (and decrease respectively) of floor area per reference building. Additionally, the impact of the Ecodesign directive is applied to the scenario results (Taps and showers: 70 TWh in 2025 (anticipated savings from Ecodesign Preparatory Study). Cooling systems For cooling systems the same exchange rates as described for heating systems will be applied. The exchange rates will be applied to the stock of cooling systems, which will be derived from available top down data on electricity consumption for cooling, in combination with information from Ecodesign Preparatory Study ENTR Lot 6. An increase of cooling systems in new and existing buildings will be derived from available sales data The infiltration of new technologies is generally addressed by better SER-values for new cooling systems. 77

78 Ventilation systems Ventilation systems with heat recovery are assumed to be distributed in case of major renovation of a building and in new buildings according to the following table. Baseline (Scenario 1) Retrofit New buildings New buildings Scenario 2 Retrofit New buildings New buildings Scenario 3 Retrofit New buildings New buildings Table 87: Ventilation systems with heat recovery Residential Non-residential 3 % 45 % 25 % 55 % 45 % 70 % 4 % 50 % 28 % 60 % 50 % 75 % 6 % 60 % 34 % 70 % 60 % 85 % Scenario input ventilation systems with heat recovery, residential/non-residential, all zones Solar thermal systems Solar thermal systems in residential buildings are assumed to be applied in case of an exchange of the heating system and in new buildings as shown in the following table.

79 4. Overview and key conclusions The following graphs show a comparison of the assessed scenarios in terms of final energy use, CO 2 -emissions and primary energy use as well as investments (capital expenditures) and energy costs. The results are given for energy use items within the EPBD scope: space heating, domestic hot water and space cooling as well as the auxiliary energy for ventilation, heat recovery for heating and cooling systems (and lighting for nonresidential buildings. As shown on Figure 30, starting from 3,980 TWh/a in 2013, the final energy use decreases in the assessed scenarios by 2030 by 12, 12 and 18% respectively compared to 2013 to 3,520, and 3,270 TWh/a respectively (Scenario 1, 2 and 3). Figure 30: Comparison of the different scenarios, final energy, total for EU 28 [TW/a] 79

80 As for primary energy, Figure 31 indicate that, starting from 4,760 TWh/a in 2013, the primary energy use decreases in the assessed scenarios by 2030 by 26% in scenarios 1 and 2 and by 30% in scenario 3, i.e. to 3,530, 3,510 and 3,310 TWh/a respectively (Scenario 1 to 3). Figure 31: Comparison of the different scenarios, primary energy, total EU28 [TW/a] As regards GHG emissions, starting from 835 Mt/a in 2013, compared to 2013, the emission level decreases in the assessed scenarios by 2030 by 23, 24 and 28% respectively (Scenario 1 to 3). In absolute levels, the 2030 level of emission reaches 639, 636 and 597 Mt/a respectively (Scenario 1 to 3). Figure 32: Comparison of the different scenarios, CO 2-emissions, total for EU28 [Mt/a] 80

81 In relation to the CO 2 -emission target corridor as formulated in the European Roadmap for moving to a competitive low carbon economy in , the scenarios 1 and 2 miss to enter the target corridor and scenario 3 is almost achieving the 2030 target (2% difference). Figure 33: CO 2-emissions, total for Scenario 1 to 3 compared to building sector specific targets Based on the European Roadmap for moving to a competitive low carbon economy in The target corridor as described is developed from the respective targets in the roadmap for the residential and service sector and the power sector. 81

82 The investment costs / capital expenditures in the building envelope and HVAC systems increase over time, influenced by increasing renovation/system exchange rate and ambition level. Figure 34: Comparison of the different scenarios, total investments for EU28 [bn /a] While final energy use in the different scenarios is dropping, the envisaged raise in energy costs per kwh (after a drop between 2013 and 2015), lead to an increase in energy costs, with scenario 3 reaching a stabilisation after Figure 35: Comparison of the different scenarios, total energy expenditures for EU28 [bn /a] 82

83 From the results for the assessed scenarios, the following conclusions can be drawn: All scenarios lead to an increasing reduction in final and primary energy use and related CO 2 -emissions. Scenario 1 and 2 are missing to enter the CO 2 -emission target corridor as formulated in the European Roadmap for moving to a competitive low carbon economy in Scenario 3 is almost achieving the 2030 check-point (2-3% difference). Consequently, additional measures not assessed with BEAM² would be necessary to proceed towards 2050 targets. The potential as regards speed of renovation is not fully exploited under the assessed policy options (renovation rate of approx. 1.7% achieved in Scenario 3). Derived from renovation cycles of years for building envelopes, a renovation rate of 2.5% could be technically achieved while still cost effectively coupling energy performance improvements to anyway ongoing maintenance measures. This will require specifically a stronger focus on compliance (see also study on compliance 39 ) and a focus on creating additional trigger moments (e.g. lower the threshold on major renovation, requiring renovation in a specific time frame after sale, etc.) With a view to achieving the 2050 target, avoidance of lock-in effects will be very important the latest from 2021 on (renovation cycles of building envelopes approx years require the ambition level for the energy performance of building envelopes the latest from 2021 on to be 2050 compatible ) and 2031 on (replacement cycles of HVAC equipment approx. 20 years require carbon emissions from HVAC equipment from 2031 on to be 2050 compatible ) The assessed options show in 2030 still a significant share of fossil fuels. With a view to achieving CO 2 -emission targets for 2050 the latest as from 2031 on (see previous comment) almost exclusive implementation of renewable/low(zero) carbon energy systems is required, not only in new buildings but also during renovation of existing buildings. 39 ICF International 2015: EPBD Compliance study 83
