2 OUTLINE Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April The Policy Context of energy efficiency and environmental performance of retailers 2. The Improvement Potential of the energy performance of retailers 3. The Reference Document on best environmental management practice of the retail trade sector 4. Options to reduce the energy demand 5. Options to be more energy efficient 6. Options to use better energy sources

3 POLICY CONTEXT Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April EU Energy Strategy Energy efficiency Integrated Energy Market Safety and security Innovation and leadership External dimension: international partnership Suppliers outside EU Manufacturers Consumers Retail Trade Sector Transport & Logistics Europe % Renewable share 20% Energy Efficiency 20% (30%) GHG reduction 10% of biofuel, nat. plans, Low carbon Roadmap to 2050 ~80% reduction + sectoral policy options: for residential and services ~90% red. in 2050 (~40% in 2030) EU Sustainable Development Strategy Climate Change and Clean Energy Sustainable Transport Sustainable Consumption and Production Natural resources Other social and economic challenges A resource-efficient Europe

4 POLICY CONTEXT Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April All the policy instruments identify retailers as the activity with high influence on consumers Therefore, retailers are essential for the implementation of many environmental initiatives, regulations or directives, for example: Offer of Ecolabeled products Waste policy: WEEE, National plans,etc. Choice editing of energy efficient equipment, mandatory (e.g. ecodesign) or voluntary

5 POLICY CONTEXT Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April All the policy instruments identify retailers as the activity with high influence on consumers As well, many initiatives are driven for / by retailers: Retail Forum European Food SCP Round Table Priority sector for the development of Reference Document on Best Environmental Management Practice under EMAS regulation (but going beyond EMAS)

6 IMPROVEMENT POTENTIAL Boosting Brussels 30 Renewable March 2011 Energy Workshop: supply EMAS and pilot In-Store reference Energy document Efficiency, on BEMP in Brussels, the construction 13 th April sector Benchmarks of excellence 400 HEATING OF STORES German retailers Average of 100 kwh/m 2 yr for heating Outstanding retailer Benchmark of excellence: 0 kwh/m 2 yr for heating

7 THE REFERENCE DOCUMENT Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April Collects best environmental management practice of the sector (What can be done?) -Covers the whole chain under the umbrella of EMAS but not only for EMAS (For everybody) - Proposes indicators and benchmarks of excellence (Which is the achievable performance?)

8 THE REFERENCE DOCUMENT Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April Prioritisation of best energy management practice HVAC Building Reduce Demand Increase Efficiency Management Use better sources Lighting, Refrigeration Monitoring

9 OPTIONS TO REDUCE THE DEMAND Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April BUILDING Envelope (ground floor, walls, roof, windows, doors) Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Improved Insulation of walls (20 cm) Exhaust air heat recovery Retrofitting of roofs (30 cm) Under demand control

10 OPTIONS TO REDUCE THE DEMAND Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April WASTE HEAT RECOVERY -Heat recovery from refrigeration will: -Reduce the fossil fuel demand -If the building envelope is well insulated, there would be no need for a heating system -Net, saleable heat is produced under certain circumstances AIR HEATING SYSTEM

11 OPTIONS TO REDUCE THE DEMAND Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April Electricity consumption kwh/m 2 yr ENERGY MONITORING Performance measurement of implemented practices Monitoring performance indicators Best/Bad practices detection Benchmarking Stores Refrigeration consumption kwh/m yr Potential Best Practice Case to investigate Average Benchmark Stores

12 OPTIONS TO INCREASE EFFICIENCY Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April REFRIGERATION The CO 2 compression cycle for freezing (and refrigeration) Closing display cases for freezing (and refrigeration) LIGHTING Better lighting strategies Use of natural light Better devices CO 2 compressors LEDs in freezers Closed display cases for refrigeration Daylight

13 OPTIONS TO INCREASE EFFICIENCY Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April Specific linear refrigeration consumption, kwh/myr Best performers 3000 kwh/myr

14 ACHIEVABLE SAVINGS Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April kwh m(display case) kwh m(display case) m 7250 km of display cases ineu yr km 1 GWh kwh GWh kwh GWh m 7250 km of display cases in EU yr km GWh Achievable savings in EU27 = 9.4TWh/yr 1.2 average German nuclear reactors, 1.4 average French nuclear reactors

15 OPTIONS TO USE BETTER ENERGY Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April Net generation, MWh/yr Wind farm 2.3 3, Wind farm 2.3 3,750 WIND-ONSHORE Installed Power, kw Colruyt Stores generation: 1040 MWh/yr; installed power 1242 kw, Colruyt specific Distribution generation Centres approx. generation: 80 kwh / m MWh/yr Power MW MWh/y SOLAR-PV Stores Distribution Centres Generation, Wind farm ,000

16 OPTIONS TO USE BETTER SOURCES Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April Biomass Heat Pump ACTIVE GENERATION Renewable integration with other measures (ZEB, LC- ZEB, ) Investment on new renewable generation (not green purchasing) PV Wind Mills

17 And MUCH MORE! Boosting Renewable Energy supply and In-Store Energy Efficiency, Brussels, 13 th April Greening supply chain - Transport and Logistics - Waste Management - Water and materials management - Influence on consumers Technical background, economics, applicability, driving forces, benchmarks, etc.
