The use of different types of standards in the field of energy efficiency Maitane OLABARRIA UZQUIANO 1
The context t Energy efficiency = 54 % of 2030 GHG saving estimates (IEA, World Energy Outlook 2008) Energy saving potential (Energy Efficiency Action Plan 2006): 27-30% 26% 25% Buildings Transport Industry EU energy efficiency goal: 20% by 2020 Directives adopted on buildings, energy end-use, ecodesign of energy related products,... CEN-CENELEC 2010-2
The role of standardization di ti Common terminology Test methods Management systems... Measurement and calculation methods Benchmarking and other methodologies Service and product specifications Standards provide tools for the implementation of legislation, promotion of best practice, optimisation of systems, comparability of products... CEN-CENELEC 2010-3
Energy efficiency i standardization di i Energy Performance of buildings Transport Energy efficiency Household Appliances Energy Management CEN-CENELEC 2010-4
Types of standards used in the energy efficiency field Important part of every standard Terminology There are also standards dedicated to terminology Ex. CEN/CLC /TR 16103 Energy management and energy efficiency- Glossary of terms Measurement, calculation and test methods Main type of standard used in relation to energy efficiency Ex. EPB, household appliances, transport, top-down and bottom-up energy saving calculations CEN-CENELEC 2010-5
Energy performance of Buildings Mandate M/343 (2004) aimed at the elaboration and adoption of standards for a methodology calculating the integrated energy performance of buildings in accordance with the EPBD Over 30 CEN-standards published covering: Calculation of overall energy performance Calculation of energy needs and energy use for Heating, Cooling, Lighting, hot Water and Ventilation Methodology for inspection of systems (H, V, C) CEN-CENELEC 2010-6
Methodology for calculating energy performance of buildings CEN-CENELEC 2010-7
Transport CEN/TC 320 Transport-Logistics ti and Services /WG 10 Common calculation methodology, declaration and reporting on energy consumption and GHG emissions i of transport services for goods and passengers CEN-CENELEC 2010-8
Household appliances Examples EN 50242 Electric dishwashers for household use - Test methods for measuring the performance EN 50285 Energy efficiency of electric lamps for household use - Measurement methods EN 50304 Electric cooking ranges, hobs, ovens and grills for household use - Methods for measuring performance Standards have been developed to measure the performance of air conditioners, dishwashers, refrigerators and freezers, tumble driers,... Mandates in the framework of EUP: stand-by and off mode (M/439), external power supplies (M/450),... CEN-CENELEC 2010-9
Types of standards used in the energy efficiency field Management system Service standard Other methodologies/ specifications EN 16001 Energy Management systems enabling organizations to take a systematic approach to the continual improvement of its energy efficiency EN 15900 Energy efficiency services Sets minimum requirements for these kind of services Ex. Energy audits and energy efficiency benchmarking CEN-CENELEC 2010-10
Conclusions Important role of calculation and measurement standards in relation to energy efficiency in order to be able to follow-up progress and compare energy performance of products, buildings, services...... But other types of standards d also provide important t tools for energy efficiency (management systems, energy audits, benchmarking) Some role to play by other types of standards (ex. Qualification of personnel...)? CEN-CENELEC 2010-11
