5 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS Why do we need this package? THE ENERGY SYSTEM OF TOMORROW WILL LOOK DIFFERENTLY % of electricity to come from renewables 2050 Electricity completely carbon free Thanks to the EU: Ambitious energy and climate commitments With leadership comes responsibility Unique opportunity to modernise our economy and to boost competitiveness create the growth and jobs we need 2

6 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS What are our goals? CREATING JOBS & GROWTH, BRINGING DOWN GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS, SECURING ENERGY SUPPLY Putting energy efficiency first Delivering a fair deal for consumers Demonstrating global leadership in renewables 3

7 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS Energy efficiency first in the energy transition The cheapest energy is the one we do not consume! Energy efficiency contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gases and goes hand in hand with renewable energies to enable the energy transition Putting energy efficiency first It is also an integral part of the Energy Union Governance Empower consumers by granting access to information on their energy consumption (new rules on electricity market design) 4

8 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS HOW DO WE GET THERE (2)? THE RIGHT REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR POST 2020 " In essence the new package is about tapping our green growth potential across the board" Commissioner Miguel Arias Cañete (2016) Energy Union Governance Energy New Electricity Market Design (including Risk Preparedness) 5

9 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS ENERGY UNION GOVERNANCE STREAMLINING AND INTEGRATION OF ENERGY AND CLIMATE PLANNING AND REPORTING TODAY MS planning MS reporting EC monitoring / reporting National Integrated Energy and Climate Plans (2021 to 2030) (preparation well before 2020) National progress reports (from 2021, every two years) NEW GOVERNANCE Integrated national energy and climate plan Periodic progress reports Periodic State of the Energy Union European Commission monitoring (State of the Energy Union) Synchronised with the Paris Agreement's review cycle 6

10 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS WHAT PIECES OF LEGISLATION? ACHIEVING THE BINDING 30% ENERGY EFFICIENCY TARGET BY 2030 Energy Efficiency Directive Binding 30% energy efficiency target for 2030; Create 400,000 new jobs; Reduce gas imports by 12%; Save 70 billion in fossil fuel imports; Empower consumers by granting access to information on their energy consumption. Energy Performance of Buildings Directive Clear vision for a decarbonised building stock by 2050; Smart & Efficient buildings through use of Information and Communication Technologies and Smart Technologies; Smart Finance for Smart Buildings initiative: o More effective use of public funding o Aggregation of funds o De-risking Protect vulnerable groups & address energy poverty. Ecodesign Working Plan List of new product groups; Outline on how ecodesign will contribute to circular economy objectives; Specific measures on air conditioning; Guidelines on voluntary agreements.

11 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS Proposal to amend Directive 2012/27/EU on energy efficiency

12 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS ENERGY EFFICIENCY DIRECTIVE (EED) OBJECTIVES Adapting to Energy and Climate 2030 Framework Streamlining, simplifying and increasing coherence with other elements of the package, namely: New governance regulation New electricity market design Update of legislation on renewables

13 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE? ACHIEVING THE 30% ENERGY EFFICIENCY TARGET BY 2030 With a 30% target, the Union s 2030 energy consumption cannot exceed 1321 Mtoe of primary energy consumption and 987 Mtoe of final energy consumption. This equals a 23% reduction in primary energy consumption compared to historical 2005 energy consumption levels (-17% in final energy consumption). Keeping the momentum: We need approximately the same energy efficiency effort from 2020 to 2030 as from 2010 to 2020.

14 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS THE 30% ENERGY EFFICIENCY TARGET (Articles 1 and 3) What are the positive impacts compared to a 27% target? SUSTAINABLE GROWTH Increase in GDP of around 0.4% ( 70 billion) Creation of 400,000 more jobs Reduction in pollution control costs & health damage costs by billion SAVINGS Lower electricity price for households and energy intensive industries NOW (b.a.u.) 27% 30% Security of supply: avoided oil & gas imports = 70 billion Decarbonisation is cheaper in the long run ( ): 9 billion/year less 158 MWh 161 MWh 157 MWh

15 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS THE WAY FORWARD

16 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS WHY DO WE NEED AN EU BINDING TARGET? OBJECTIVES Union s commitment towards its international climate and energy goals in 2030 and beyond Energy efficiency on equal footing with the other 2030 climate and energy targets Endorse the Union s commitment under the Energy Union Framework to put energy efficiency first Give investors the security that it is worth investing in energy efficiency, with positive impact on the technology costs and payback periods. Coherent governance process is needed to ensure that there is no ambition and delivery gap towards the Union's 2030 energy efficiency target.

17 CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS ENERGY SAVINGS (ARTICLE 7 EED) Extending existing energy saving obligations beyond 2020 (1.5%/year) Strengthening the social dimension Improving coherence with the EPBD Attracting private investment for energy efficiency renovations Lower energy bills for consumers and reduced energy demand Requiring MS to consider energy poverty in designing energy efficiency obligation schemes or alternative measures Increasing buildings renovation rate Simplifying and streamlining

31 EE 14 Socio-economic research: Energy Efficiency First + Demand Side Modelling Ulrike NUSCHELER, Giulia PIZZINI Unit B1 Energy Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (EASME)

32 EE-14 Conceptualising Energy Efficiency First (2018) & Modelling Demand (2019) Challenge Ø European Union Strategy and Clean Energy for All Europeans: Energy Efficiency recognised as an energy resource in its own right to compete on equal terms with generation to have primary consideration in (MS) policies. Ø However, not sufficiently understood and taken into account in financial and political decision making: the structure of energy demand the real value of energy efficiency & energy and non-energy impacts Ø EE-14 addresses two different dimensions of this challenge: making the energy efficiency first principle more operational (2018); substantiating the demand side aspects in energy modelling (2019).

33 Call Conceptualising Energy Efficiency First Research and Innovation Action - Call 2018 Scope Actions helping make the Energy Efficiency First-principle more concrete and operational. Actions to qualify and quantify: the principle's relevance for energy demand and supply and its broader impacts across sectors and markets how energy efficiency programmes (enduse, operation, transmission and generation) can compete with supply side investments how it interacts with other policy objectives at policy level + level of implementation.

34 Call Conceptualising Energy Efficiency First Research and Innovation Action - Call 2018 Scope, more specifically: Actions conceptualising and assessing the energy efficiency first-principle and its impacts: the principle's role and value of energy efficiency in the energy system (e.g. for generation/network adequacy) and energy market (participation in and impacts on wholesale, balancing/reserve + capacity markets etc.) its role and value in financing decisions the principle's economic and social impacts its correlation and interaction with other policy objectives (renewable energy, demand response, climate policy, security of supply etc.) RIA 2018 Expected EUcontribution: EUR million Total available Budget: EUR 4 Mio Opening: 25 Jan 2018 existing best practices worldwide where energy efficiency projects are given priority over additional supply side measures.

35 Call Conceptualising Energy Efficiency First Expected Impacts Actions should lead to a better understanding of: all relevant aspects linked to the "energy efficiency first-principle" its impacts (e.g. technical, economic, socioeconomic, and ecological etc.) on the relevant sectors and markets its potential across the different policy areas and sectors its consideration and valorisation in modelling and assessments its interaction with other policy objectives both at policy level (e.g. climate and renewable policies, circular economy) and at the level of concrete application (e.g. design of buildings).

36 Call Modelling demand Research and Innovation Action - Call 2019 The action should complement existing demand side energy models by developing multiple-agent energy models and/or modelling segments methodologies on how to improve and enhance the demand side aspects in modelling. These models and/or methodologies should: model more accurately aspects not yet sufficiently considered in existing models make use of new data sources, including big data (from smart meters, sensors etc.) refine the structure and patterns of demand and how it will develop be compatible with energy models most commonly used and contribute to enhanced demand-side model at European level. RIA 2019 Expected EUcontribution: EUR 1-2 million Total available Budget: EUR 4 Mio Opening: 24 Jan 2019

45 Evaluation into Practice to Achieve Targets for Energy Efficiency Developing and structuring projects involving stakeholders Gregor Thenius Austrian Energy Agency H2020 Info Day: Smart & Efficient Energy 25 October 2017, Brussels This project has received funding from the European Union s Horizon 2020 Research and innovation programme under grant agreement No

46 Developing the project

47 Developing the project idea Identify needs/issues of national and/or EU stakeholders EPATEE idea emerged in March 2016 Key idea: Ex- post evaluation Call closure 15 th September 2016 à less than 6 months time Check with call priorities Refer to at least one bullet point in the respective priority Link with existing or future EU policy and strategy

48 EPATEE: The starting point in the H2020 work programme Engaging and activating public authorities (EE- 09) Raising the capacity of Member States to fulfil their obligation under the Energy Efficiency Directive, Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, Ecodesign and Labelling Directives (e.g. monitoring on the energy efficiency progress and policies)

49 EPATEEs objectives and concept The specific objectives of the project are to create the favourable conditions for improving the number and effective use of ex- post impact evaluations of energy efficiency policies. The main general concept of EPATEE is that improving key stakeholders evaluation practices help bridging the gap between their need for effective policy making and their lack of data and analysis about the impacts. 1. Asses needs and existing evaluation practices 2. Improve stakeholders capacity 3. Enable regular exchange

50 Drafting the proposal Important first steps 1. Start with a core group of partners March Define coordinator Beginning of April Define basicstructure and preliminary work packages 4. Define work package leaders at an earlystage 5. Contact further potential partners

51 Structure of EPATEE The structure of EPATEE

52 The consortium success factors Use your networks to build the consortium Contact further partners starting from the core group. What kind of profile is needed? Criteria for EPATEE: Involvement in evaluation Good stakeholder contacts on national level Communication and stakeholder work experience Good experience with partner in the past Existing experience in EU projects

53 Writing the proposal Organisation Lot of effort! Minimum one person- month for coordinator Start early One person per partner mainly in charge Coordinator is mainly in charge of preparing the proposal, but needs to allocate tasks to appropriate partners Don t forget administrative forms and issues (e.g. hourly rates) Phone conferences Progress of proposal Selected issues (e.g. impacts)

54 Structuring the project Agree on the basic structure in core group work packages, tasks, interrelations, time frame Prepare project fact sheet This includes the main idea, expected outcomes and current status of committed partners Assign work package and task leads according to expertise give a reason for each choice EPATEE: Stakeholder engagement is at core

55 Involving stakeholders

56 Structuring stakeholders in EPATEE Policymakers and policy implementers National ministries responsible for energy or energy related issues Energy agencies, public funds or research institutions Professional bodies and interest organisations (representing industry, energy, SME, NGOs etc.) Universities and other scientific organisations Other EU initiatives and projects as well as Special interest media EU institutions

57 The involvement of stakeholders Proposal phase Letters of support EPATEE got 49 Project phase Stakeholder engagement (own work package) Workshops (national and EU level) Webinars go into detail on selected issues Presentations Website Newsletters External Expert Advisory Board Dedicated task: Creating conditions for continued exchange beyond the project

58 The inputs from stakeholders Identify relevant stakeholders (lists) A stakeholder engagement plan is drafted in the beginning of the project and updated in the course of it EPATEE is strongly organised along needs of stakeholders. From the beginning project activities are matched with these needs (interviews, survey in the first months) Recurring surveys and feedback from workshops help to keep project activities on the right track

59 To take home Project idea in line with Existing needs and challenges in policy making Call for proposals Start early enough to prepare proposal Challenge every decision/aspect in view of the project goals and call for proposals Tailor stakeholder work to their expected needs
