  1. Energy efficiency in Central/Eastern Europe International Conference on Energy Efficiency Renovation in Residential Buildings Sector Dr. Tudor Constantinescu Executive Director Buildings Performance Institute Europe 28-29 June 2010 - Budapest

  2. PresentationLayout • Buildings Performance Institute Europe (BPIE) • EU Level • Energy & Climate Package • Legal Framework • Energy data in Central / Eastern Europe • Governmentallevel • Policies / Legislation • Funds BPIE

  3. BPIE (Buildings Performance Institute Europe) • Independent, non-profit organisation based in Brussels • Focus on energy efficiency in buildings throughout Europe & the world • Supported by eceee, European Climate Foundation, Climate Works etc. • Centre of expertise in buildings • European centre for a global best practice network • Targeted research, policy analysis & evaluation, exploration of policy options & implications, dissemination of information • Started to operate in February 2010 BPIE

  4. EU LevelEnergy & Climate Package ‘20-20-20’ • Establishment of legally binding targets to: • Cut GHG emissions by 20% compared to 1990 levels • Increase share of renewable energy to 20% by 2020 • Reduce primary energy use by 20% compared with projected levels by improving energy efficiency • Top priorities in terms of energy efficiency potential: • Building sector (40% of energy requirements in EU) • Transport sector (26% of energy requirements in EU) • Manufacturing sector (25% of energy requirements in EU) BPIE

  5. EU LevelLegal Framework • End use efficiency and energy services Directive (ESD) • Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) • Directive on promotion of cogeneration (CHP) • Directives for labellingof appliances (e.g. air-conditioners & refrigerators) plus Energy Star regulation for office equipment • Framework Directive for eco-design requirements for energy using products (boilers, refrigerators, freezers, ballasts for fluorescent lights) • Directive on energy products and electricity taxation BPIE

  6. Energy Data in Central/Eastern EuropeEnergyintensity in variousregions Non-OECD Europe OECD OECD Europe BPIE

  7. Energy Data in Central/Eastern EuropeEnergy Intensity vs economic welfare in CEE for 1992-2007 Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, FYR Macedonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland, Slovakia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Malta, Slovenia, Cyprus 1992 2002 2007 BPIE

  8. Energy Data in Central/Eastern EuropeEnergy Efficiency – Part of Transition Process in CEE/CIS • Average transition scores and energy intensity of ECT countries in transition Energy Intensity ■ CIS Transition scores ■CEE Transition scores BPIE Based on data in the EBRD Transition report 2009 and the IEA Key World Energy Statistics 2009

  9. Energy Data in Central/Eastern EuropeInteractions • Residential Energy Consumption (heating, lighting, cooking, electrical appliances), Key influencing factors, Policies Energy Prices EnergyPrices GDP/Capita Disposableincome Specific EE policies / measures Techniques / Technologies Behaviour Climate Energyconumption and efficiency BPIE

  10. GovernmentalLevelTheirrole in EnergyEfficiency (EE) • Policy making (objectives, priorities, targets) • Legislation and regulatory systems (EE laws, but also e.g. prices, DSM, obligations on energy suppliers – e.g. UK EE Commitments) • Institutions (e.g. EE Agencies) • EE funds • Specific measures directed to support financing EE BPIE

  11. GovernmentalLevelPolicy makingEE: Part of Energy Policy coordinated with Environmental Policy • Efficient use of natural resources (e.g. oil, gas, hydro) for sustainable development • Develop alternatives of supply • Increase EE throughout the energy cycle (production, conversion, end-use), improve infrastructure • Increase the share of RES • Minimise environmental impacts BPIE

  12. GovernmentalLevelLegislation & RegulatorySystems • Example: EPBD (2002) Implementation summary BPIE Based on RICS study on: 'Towards an Energy Efficient European Building stock' 2009

  13. GovernmentalLevelEE Funds – Central/Eastern Europe Outlook • Total of € 1,796 m EU funds for EE measures for 2007 - 2013 in Czech Republic, Hungary, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Slovakia • ERDF regulation « In each MS, expenditure on energy efficiency and renewable energy in existing housing shall be eligible up to an amount of 4% of the total ERDF allocation» • Bulgaria €91m for energy efficient & renewable measures in public schools, universities and social units • Latvia €63m for heat insulation in multi-apartment residential buildings and 35m for co-generation power plants • Hungary €154m for energy efficient measures EE & RE Funds as share of total Structural and Cohesion Funds for 2007 - 2013 BPIE

  14. GovernmentalLevelEE Funds – Grants and soft finance • Direct support programmes– subject to certain requirements; mainly for residential sector; risk of free riders (objectives, priorities, targets); Ex: F, Hu, Nl, Pl, S • Soft finance - free loans and grants covering interests and guarantees; Ex: Cz, Hu, Nl, Li, Ro • District Heating and CHP grants; Ex: Hu, Dk(70% savings, 30% of resources allocated) • Other financing instruments (Technology procurement, voluntary agreements…) • Taxation (“tax-shift”, VAT, accelerated depreciation) BPIE

  15. GovernmentalLevelNeed for change in CEE/EE policy • ESD targets (min 9% by 2016) • RES targets (2005 -2020, 20%) • ETS - 21% • CO2 targets (20%) • National responses required to EU wide objectives

  16. GovernmentalLevelNeed for change in CEE/EE policy • POTENTIAL • High potential in housing sector (40% of GHG emissions in CEE countries) • High potential for energy efficient refurbishment in housing sector as most of old high-rise building stock requires renovation in CEE • e.g. in Hungary 24% of all buildings need a comprehensive refurbishment, whereas 40% need to be partially refurbished • BENEFITS • Reduction of the need for energy imports and dependency on Russia • Competitiveness gains linked to increased local investments • New employment opportunities (e.g. in the housing sector, it is estimated up to 185,000 new jobs in the CEE-10) • Local knowledge and innovation BPIE Based on findings of study conducted by Friends of Europe Earth and bankwatch network
