1 Joint Research Centre the European Commission's in-house science service The European Commission s science and knowledge service Serving society Stimulating innovation Supporting legislation Joint Research Centre Monitoring buildingrelated actions in the Covenant of Mayors Isabella.Maschio@ec.europa.eu European Commission DG Joint Research Centre Energy efficiency and Renewables unit Sustainable Habitat Forum Climate Chance summit - Nantes, 27 September 2016

2 Covenant of Mayors Mayors commit to go beyond EU energy and climate objectives % CO 2-40% CO sustainable energy Sustainable Energy Action Plan (SEAP) Baseline Emission Inventory (BEI) Key actions sustainable energy & adaptation Sustainable Energy & Climate Action Plan (SECAP) Baseline Emission Inventory (BEI) Key actions Climate Risks & Vulnerability Assessment 2

3 Covenant of Mayors Actors EC - DG Energy EC - Joint Research Centre Support Develop methodology and guidelines Technical support (helpdesk) JRC online verification tool SEAP evaluation process Analysis Overall assessment of the CoM based on signatories' reports CoM Office Promotion, communication, networking Administrative and technical support to signatories Support monitoring implementation 3

6 CoM methodology Emissions inventory Reference base year: from 1990 on, depending on data available Sectors: Must cover at least 3 out of 4 key sectors Sectors: ad hoc, essentially consumption based Sectors: mandatoryrecommended-optional GHG: CO 2 or CO 2 eq, depending on data available (JRC conversion) Emission factors: IPCC or LCA depending on data available (JRC conversion) Sectors / Fields of action Municipal buildings Residential buildings Tertiary buildings Transport Local energy production Land use planning Public procurement Working with the citizens and stakeholders Industries (excl. ETS sector) Other sectors Recommended Recommended Recommended Recommended Optional See SEAP guidebook 6

7 CoM methodology Action Plans concrete actions covering at least the municipal buildings sector and one or more other key sectors (see BEI) For each actions, policy instrument and estimated cost to be specified, overall financing sources 2020 projection: depends on regional specificities (e.g. reduction compare to BAU 2020 for CoM E) 7

8 JRC analysis 8

9 JRC analysis BEI (2014) Where do we stand? BEI indicators 2005 Tonnes CO 2 eq. per capita emitted in signatory cities. MWh per capita of final energy consumed in signatory cities. Buildings account for more than half of the energy consumed and transport close to one third. Share of overall energy consumption satisfied by locally produced energy.

16 JRC analysis SEAP (2014) policy mechanism How to reach the goals: tools in building area Policy tools Energy management: is the major policy instrument, contributing with 37% of the estimated GHG emission reduction in the municipal sector, with 24 % in the tertiary sector, with 75% in the public lighting Regulations, codes, standards and mandates Building codes and regulation: Covenant signatories use building code to impose more stringent energy performance requirements than those applicable at national level. These are the major policies instruments used by local authorities in the building sector (municipal, residential and tertiary buildings), ranging from 12-20% of the estimated GHG emission reductions. Procurement Public procurement: This policy instrument is estimated to contribute with 25% to the GHG emission reductions in the Municipal Building and Facilities and with 13% in the public lighting sector.
